Looking for subs? Here's some food for thought.
(Preview)

Tuesday night at the B-Diamond was a perfect night for a ball game. The B-Diamond looked great after a fresh mowing. The sun was out and not a cloud in the sky. It wasn't too hot and there was a light breeze. Thank you, Jesus! Enough of the weather report: The Cubs jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the top of the 1st i...

And to do that, it's necessary t...
