The Bourne Braves, and the Cape Cod Baseball League as a whole, are kicking off their 2017 season tomorrow, as they seek to bring the pain to the Cotuit kids.
You can see the whole Cape League schedule for the season right here, so get on out and support your local nine.,"
You might see someone famous. I don't mean "someone playing now who is a nobody but who will be worth 100 million dollars once he learns to hit a pro curveball." You might sit in the stands next to someone who already smells like Cooperstown.
Roger Clemens gained a bit of fame for his time in Boston as the best Red Sox pitcher of the 1980s. He sort of fell off here as he got old, went to a few different teams, experimented with some new training techniques, had a comeback so good that it spawned a Congressional hearing, and sired a bunch of kids with K names.
One of them- Kody- is an infielder for the University of Texas, where his old man went. He is also on the Bourne Braves 2017 roster, which means that the Rocket may be coming to town soon.
Check that "soon" part... he'll be in town Monday.
The Bourne Braves are having their 2017 golf tournament fundraiser at the Brookside Contry Club this Monday. For a mere $135, you can golf in Bourne, have lunch (I think that's an extra $50, but who's counting?) and meet celebrities like Roger Clemens and Peter Gammons.
Keep your head up, of course... there's a helicopter ball drop, a longest drive contest and a 50/50 raffle.
Remember, the Braves exist 100% off of donations and so forth, so this event is a key to having a team in town. Go on down and represent!
