| The 2010 season is coming to an end and on paper it appears the two best teams remaining (winners bracket) will be battling it out to advance to the championship game on Sunday. One team from the Riverview and the other from Saint Paul. I am not even sure what league they are in Skyline? Regardless, how fun would it be to come out on Friday night to support your respective cities, (MPLS vs. Saint Paul) bring lots of beer, battle it out in the stands and on the field.
Class A has notoriously had extremely poor attendance throughout the state tourney. Let's change this NOW and not because we are playing in the game. Let's start a new tradition where the Class A state finals is a hot ticket. WHY NOT? It's a Friday night, you can drink beer and watch a good baseball game and pull for your team of choice.
Finally, it's least we can do for the people that invest so much time and energy pulling state tournament together. Our leagues need the money!!
Good luck to remaining teams...

| yes Flare - Class A guys come out and support YOUR Class A ball! It is up to us to promote from within our groups/teams. The more support we get the stronger this organization (Class A baseball) and tournament can be. Not to mention, all of the games this weekend should be very entertaining. - just another Warrior guy

| Now is the time for those of us that complain about everything surrounding the state tournament to step up and make a difference. Tall & Lanky is correct we need to come out and support the tournament. The reason that the class B/C tournament draws so well is that the eliminated teams, and most of their fans, attend the games. We are obviously all passionate about the sport of baseball or we wouldn’t put the time and effort into getting into shape during the winter (remember, round is a shape) and strap it on to play for 3 ½ months. This is our state tournament and we need to start taking pride in it and supporting it. Come out and just be a fan of the game. Who cares what teams are on the field, the game itself and our 4-leagues deserve our support. See you at the yard, I will be there and so will my kids.

| Well stated fellas. Come out and support Class A Baseball this Friday. It's not a given that we will have this tourney every year, especially with the turnout we have been getting this year. Let's keep this strong tradition going, I think we'd all agree it's worth the effort. Class A Baseball... "Everyone is wearing the same uniform."
