Growing up in the Twin Cities, baseball was an integral part of life for Eli and was a key contributor to staying off the "mean streets" of the East Side of St. Paul. It was always a dream for Eli to find a niche in baseball - if not as a player - then definitely as an owner of a team!
Eli believes that baseball should be fun, family friendly, and bring the community together! Even a little irreverence is welcome (the good kind of course!)
Be ready! It's going to be fun, crazy, and yes grandma, just a little irreverent!
