Greetings from Reno

I'm in the press box at Aces Ballpark home of the Reno Aces, the AAA affiliate of the D-Backs, as they take on the Tacoma Rainiers. The Aces are in their first season in Reno at a beautiful new ballpark after moving from Tucson.

I contacted their director of media relations to get an interview with their batting coach; former Red Sox shortstop Rick Burleson. I was given a media pass and got to watch BP on the field before spending about 15 minutes interviewing Rick Burleson in the dugout. I videotaped the interview and will post it in a few days. He was very forthcoming and shared everything from how he approaches hitting to his thoughts on Jerry Remy's health, so check back later in the week to watch it.

If you every find yourself in Reno, head downtown and check out a nice family friendly ballpark with good concessions and a nice grassy area to lounge on in center.
