Monday, April 18, was the York Revolution teams first day of spring training for the 2011 season. The team plays its first game on Friday, April 29, at home against the Camden Riversharks.
One of the sports reporters, John, told me that the players have one-year contracts with the team, which means that half of this year’s team is new to York. Their jerseys haven’t arrived yet, so we’ll be getting to know their faces pretty well over the next two weeks of training.
