We Are The Champions

Trenton Thunder - EL Champions

Our very own Trenton Thunder defeated the Akron Aeros at home last weekend to earn their first ever Eastern League title.  The 10-5 win came Saturday, September 15th as the Thunder set a franchise record for postseason singe game hits (14) and runs (10) in their first appearance in the Eastern League Championship.

The Yankees Double-A affliate also debuted a new logo - which Yanks GM Brian Cashman was spotting wearing on a baseball cap at a recent game.  Trenton pitchers Chase Wright and Tyler Clippard were both recalled to the big leagues as part of the 40-man roster, while their teammates Alan Horne, Dan McCutchen and Jeff Marquez are working out with the Yanks.

You will have to wait until the Spring, but a trip to Waterfront Park is a must!  The park, right on the river in Trenton, is beautiful and fan-friendly, the team is red hot and the great amenities and promotions make for a fun afternoon or evening.  Bring your kids or gather up some friends and make a night of it with KatManDu next door!  Check out the champs by visiting the Trenton Thunder site.

The best way to get the Waterfront park would be to go on 295 south then go to 195 west about 4 miles on the left can’t miss it.
