Cal product Connor Sullivan is dominant as the closer this year for the Oakland Ballers. I watched him strike out the side to close out the game Saturday night vs. the Glacier Range Riders. The Ballers are alone in first place in the Pioneer League. It was a special event at Raimondi as well, as the life of Rickey Henderson was celebrated. His family and several of his former teammates were present. A mural featuring Rickey was unveiled. The Ballers organization know how to treat their fans. I thoroughly enjoyed the game and the perks at the park are great. The Ballers have won eight of their last nine games, and feature a number of local players. For example, first baseman Christian Almanza, a graduate of Saint Mary’s, was the star at the plate for Oakland in this game. The Ballers can really crush it.
