Snowman is that the Canadian Baseball League ? we had a team in Wellamd Ontario if that is the same league.
My son was working out with thje Niagara Stars which was run by Fergie Jenkins daughter. My son was spotted by Ron Davis (Yankee MR) and he approached me to hyave him come out for a bull pen. Once he threw a bull pen he told him to come out to all the bull pens he could and workout with the team. Very exciting to have him approach us but they folded afte a few weeks.
They couldn't get the crowds. That was the 3rd pro team that went through Welland and the 5th that went trough the area. They needed 1400 fans to break even but were only getting 300-400.
We were very upset when they left because they had assured everyone they could afford to lose money for 2-3 years. They packed up right in the middle of the season.
