So what stadiums do you use for your Beer League? And do you create your uniforms too?

[stl jason]

April recap: Division leaders

Lager League - Pilsner Division: Firefly Hollow Dire Chinchilla - With no batters over the .300 mark, it's a team effort offensively. Long time Firefly Hollow center fielder Vince Schaefer is closing in on Beer League history, just 92 hits away from being the first player to reach 2000 career hits.

Lager League - Kolsch Division: Twisted X Chupahopra - Solid pitching is leading the way for Twisted X after the first month of play. Ace starter Sigismund Lund is off to a strong start with a 4-1 record and 1.80 ERA.

Lager League - Helles Division: Sierra Nevada Narwhals - It's the offense, stupid, or so goes the Sierra Nevada team after the first month of the season (1st ranked in runs scored, on bast percentage, OPS, batting WAR, and second in batting average). Led by third baseman Jason McShane (.390 average, 2 home runs, 15 RBIs), first baseman Dan Hearn (.389 average, 18 RBIs) and left fielder Kyle Jones (.325 average, 4 home runs, 14 RBIs) are powering the club to a solid 16-8 record.

Lager League - Tripel Division: Texas Leaguer Chin Music - It's the pitching, stupid, to go the exact opposite of the Helles division leaders. Texas Leaguer is relying on their pitching staff to get the job done, as they rank 1st in FIP, and pitching WAR, and 2nd in bullpen ERA and strikeouts.

Stout League - Porter Division: Three Floyds Apocalypse Cow - Three Floyds ace starter Ben Troyer is off to a perfect 4-0 start with a 1.24 ERA, as he looks to surpass his 2029 Pitcher of the Year season (career high 13 wins). On the offensive side, center fielder and lead off hitter Jesus Dominguez is off to a hot start, batting .312 with 5 home runs and 13 RBIs.

Stout League - Dunkel Division: Jester King Das Wunderkind - The top ranked offense is powering Jester King to the best record in the league after the first month (16-7). Center fielder Mark Kane (.310 average, 2 home runs, 12 RBIs); first baseman Frank Olguin (.317 average, 4 home runs, 12 RBIs); and designated hitter Josh Juliano (.322 average, 3 home runs, 15 RBIs) are providing a tough 2-3-4 punch for opposing pitchers to face.

Stout League - Eisbock Division: Smog City Sabre Toothed Squirrels - Of all the unlikely batters to lead the league in hitting, Smog City catcher Steve Gonzalez would be the last man picked; but after the first month of play, Gonzalez sits atop the batting ranks with an impressive .425 average to help power his club to the top of the division.

Stout League - Altbier Division: Stony Creek Crankenstein - Beer League stolen base king Eric Schnare (704 career steals) is off to another solid start in the leadoff spot, batting .340 with 1 home run, 11 RBIs, and 9 stolen bases to help lead his club to the top of the division after the first month.

bulk of the stadiums come from Eriqjaffe's thread... figured the minor league parks made more sense from a capacity perspective if I was keeping the league attendance around 2000 max... no sense having a 60,000 seat stadium for that if I ever get around to doing a twitch stream of Beer league games, it'll make the park choices more relevant to anyone following along

for logos/uniforms, I guess I can say on the uniforms that I made them (using justafan's jersey creator program)... the logos are just the beer art from each brewery, so whoever the artists were that created those made them... I just converted them into team logos

(the change is also a chance to market a new brew)
