No Haven Ravens
Hoping to catch some minor league ballgames this summer, I checked to see if New Haven Raven tickets had gone on sale. The Ravens are the AA affiliate of the Toronto Blue Jays -- 2003 being the first year with the Toronto ballclub. Before last year, they were the farm team for the Mariners, Cardinals and a couple other teams.
Uh oh. It seems that the New Haven Ravens website no longer exists. The Major League Baseball Index of Minor League Teams doesn't list them.
It's official, the Ravens flew the coop to Manchester, NH. Despite winning the North Division crown, they averaged a miserable 2,273 crowd during the regular season. My Ravens cap will still be worn proudly this summer even though I never got to see them take the field.
