Default How About...

Hi Alan, What about the Wausau (Wisconsin) Timbers. The Timbers were a class A affiliate in the late '80's and early '90's. They were historically affiliated with the Mets , Mariners and Orioles over the years. They played in beautiful and historic Athletic Park. Google it to see the field stone construction. Chicago Cub great Johnny Schmitz grew up less than 2 blocks from the right field wall and was "Discovered" while playing there in the late 1930's among the chicken coops scattered in the outfield. Today the field hosts the Wausau Woodchucks....a college summer league team. Long story but eBay should offer opportunities. All of my Timbers items are permanent residents of my collection. Good luck with the "Hunt"!!
