Estadio Revolucion

This was -- um -- an adventure to say the least. The Flyers played a pair of games at Estadio Revolucion, a 1,500-seat facility in San Luis, Rio Colorado, Mexico. Orange County played "at Yuma" here in San Luis for two game of the June 21-24 series against the Scorpions, giving the GBL a chance to test the facility and the market in case the Tijuana Cimarrones are unable to return to their 18,000-seat -- yes, 18,000 -- home in TJ after a month-long road trip to Canada.

It's not exactly the perfectly manicured playing surface you'd find as an NCAA D-I school like Cal State Fullerton or at a former Triple-A park like Telus Field. No, no. This is definitely a unique experience. From music and announcements being made during at-bats (like through the swing of the batter), to stray dogs running through the concourse, Estadio Revolucion was an experience unlike any other we've had this season.
