President Bush is holding a campaign rally at C.O. Brown Stadium on Monday, so our staff is busy this weekend getting things ready for the event. Hard work deserves pizza. 9/11/2004

Broadcaster Greg Morris is usually on the air, but now he’s in the air — getting the Bailey Park entrance sign ready for a campaign rally for President Bush tomorrow. #MiLB 9/12/04

The Battle Creek Yankees staff, and interns — like Hayley, Mike and Marcus — did a terrific job hosting the Bush campaign rally today at C.O. Brown Stadium. It’s the last event of the season, and now we start to close things down and get ready for new ownership. #MiLB 9/13/04

The Midwest League votes Saturday whether to approve the sale of the Battle Creek franchise to Fun For Michigan, led by Bill Shea and David Hersh. The current owners — who also own the Iowa Cubs — are selling after 3 seasons, and failing to move the team to Dubuque. 10/13/2004

The Midwest League rejected the proposed sale of the Battle Creek franchise to Fun For Michigan. MWL team reps voted today at a meeting at Kane County. The future remains murky for the franchise, which will also likely lose its affiliation with the New York Yankees. 10/16/04

The Midwest League has approved the sale of the Battle Creek franchise to Fun For Michigan, headed by Bill Shea, and no longer includes David Hersh whose prior MiLB experience and actions were a deal-breaker. This ends a 3-year run in Battle Creek by Iowa Cubs owners. 10/30/04

This Battle Creek Yankees are officially history, and so is this account. Thanks for following. Maybe someone in the future — say, 2021 or so — will find these tweets and enjoy them. Best wishes to the new owners, who have big plans for a long-term stay in Battle Creek. 2004
