The Fox Lake Bulldogs of Post 703 in Fox Lake, Illinois, travels to Lake Zurich for a game tonight. I'll be there.
From the American Legion Site:
"American Legion Baseball is a national institution, having thrived through a world war, several nation tragedies, and times of great prosperity as well as great despair."
The 2016 American Legion World Series will be August 11-16 this year in Shelby, North Carolina.
One of the notable Major League Baseball players who played Legion ball was Bob feller.
The best-named team is the Hooker Horny Toads of Hooker Oklahoma in the panhandle area. They are sponsored by the Jack Goosen Post #137. They report great tee-shirt sales, including the one I bought when passing through.
Teams play in June and July.
