    Well-done

    As a former minor-league baseball fan (I attended quite a few Frederick Keys, Hagerstown Suns, and Charleston Wheelers games with my grandmothers during the late 1980s and early 1990s, before the advent of independent ball), I thought King did an excellent job in the time alloted showing both the passion and the reality of the Golden League. I lost interest in baseball in general a long time ago (about the time that the Wheelers stopped being the Wheelers), but I thank King for this piece.
