Since there is not going to be minor league baseball this summer and at this point there is no guarantee that the proposed 60-game major league schedule will go off without a hitch, my wife and I decided that if we wanted to see some baseball this summer, we’d best start going to what was available. Our local team is the Waterloo Bucks of the summer collegiate Northwoods League. Right now, I I’m not mistaken, the Northwoods league may be the only league in the United States playing baseball. Waterloo is a small city of about 70,000 and was the birthplace and home of Lou Henry Hoover, former First Lady and Renaissance woman and the Five Sullivan Brothers, whose story inspired the movie, Saving Private Ryan.
