Just googled it. Looks like they ended in 2001. I live in central SC. But I do know it's tough to get Bacon tickets. Would be cool if Kevin went to a game. Paddle him during the 7th inning stretch.

He's having his best winter ball season this year, which shows that he is improving with age. Last year was also better than his first year through the Australian league. I'd also say that the level of player in Australia is better than Low-A, so a .694 OPS in 23 games is a nice sign. It's not a huge league for offense this year (it mostly neutral for hitters/pitchers)
