MiLB President Applies Soft Ballpark Pressure in Beloit
Filed under Design & Construction, Stadium Issues
I live in Chicago and really like going to games in Beloit (it’s the second closes MWL team after Kane County.) But they really need to do something regarding the team. I don’t know if building a new stadium is worth it when your attendance averages below 1,000 almost every season. If nothing is done regarding a facility, they will probably see a revolving door of Major League affiliates.
