Since The Great American Ball Park opened in 2003, I have been fortunate to have seen a couple hundred games featuring my hometown Cincinnati Reds and opponents from across the Major Leagues.

NYC- The Big Apple
Posted on 29. Sep, 2009 by Corey.
I recently returned from a fantastic trip to New York City. I hadn’t been there in quite a few years, but honestly not much has changed outside of the two new baseball stadiums.

The feeling is hard to put into words, but there is something magical about exiting the Green Number 4 Subway train at 161st street in the Bronx in New York City.

Hal McCoy Night
Posted on 17. Sep, 2009 by Corey.
For some reason, I have always loved pregame ceremonies. Usually they mean that someone that deserves credit is getting it, and last night that was true for Hal McCoy, the long time Cincinnati Reds beat reporter for the Dayton Daily News. To bad not to many were in the crowd to see it. I did [...]

Step back to reality…
Posted on 15. Sep, 2009 by Corey.
The Dayton Dragons Baseball Season has been over for just over a week, and I have used some of that time to try to relax and come back to reality. It is hard to explain the crazy schedule of a professional baseball season when you are traveling and playing 140 games in about 152 days [...]

Posted on 11. Sep, 2009 by Corey.
Corey Brinn: You played for nine different Major League teams during your 11 season career. Did you mind jumping around so much? Darren Bragg: I didn’t mind moving so much because I knew it was part of being in the big leagues. I knew that I would have to fight and scratch every year for [...]
