SeaBlog takes a Break

There will be a brief hiatus here at the SeaBlog. My work duties are taking me to the other Portland for a conference. Fortunately the Portland Beavers will be in town while I am there. The Beavers are the AAA affiliate of the Seattle Mariners, and are currently in third place in the Pacific Coast League's "Pacific North" division with a 16-14 record. I plan to catch the Thursday matchup vs. the Albuquerque Isotopes. The Isotopes, with a 22-9 record, may very well be a better team than their parent club, the Florida Marlins. I'll check in over the weekend with my impressions and some photos.
