College summer leagues are starting soon, and your Forest City Owls kick off the season with an exhibition game on Memorial Day and the regular season starting on Thursday, May 28.

Vol DJ McDowell will be toeing the rubber for the Owls this summer, continuing for I think the 12th year of the Tennessee-Forest City connection. Hopefully another UT guy will make it our way later on. Also, former Vol Stratton Scott is returning for a second summer with us.

Once the college postseason is over, we should have about 14 returning players from last year’s squad that lead us to the championship series.

Forest City, NC is a great place. Friends call it a modern day Mayberry. As in years past, if you want to come to a game, let me know here. If I’m not there, I can leave tickets at will call. If I am there, we’ll have a beer together.

There are some years on it, but here’s a video of our ballpark, McNair Field:

Don't think it will much longer than now . Plus I like a good fair game of baseball just hope they don't start them too late. It will help keep the tempers down on the coaches as far as balls and strikes.
It also creates a more consistent strike zone and provides a degree of accountability for the umpires behind the plate.

If some producer is smart, they will have that 1B camera LOCKED on Kivett the first big SEC series we play at home...because it will be prime entertainment the first time we ABS a call and it overturns the ump.

I can't wait to see it, its going to be awesome.
