Taking a break

It is that time of year. I'm taking a break to see some spring training games in Arizona. Will get back to blogging about the history of the New York-Penn League on or about March 1.

New York-Penn History has had over 30,000 page views since the first post on August 2, 2016. Thanks for reading.

See you at the ballpark!
