whitecaps

You can just hear the ghost of Harry Caray yelling that in the same style he yelled "Cubs Win! Cubs Win! HOOOLLYY COW!"

So Lauren and I were talking about the differences between the Griffins in the playoffs and the Whitecaps. Much like the NHL, the Griffs could play 26 games during a playoff run. The Whitecaps?

The West Michigan Whitecaps, have had a great season so far. Very few bad weather days and nights at Fifth Third Ballpark, a fine team on the field that has already made the playoffs, and the usual assortment of great food, family fun, and wacky promotions.

Baseball is a sport that has been built on traditions for more than 150 years. Tonight, tradition will meet the future when the West Michigan Whitecaps host the first-ever game played by using equipment printed by 3D, or additive manufacturing, technology.

In more way than one! Normally on Fridays, a former Tigers great is at Fifth Third Ballpark, to sihn autographs and have fun with the fans. And tonight is no exception. Former Tiger great Glenn Wilson will be at the ballpark as the 'Caps take on Bowling Green!

Well, close. Staffing, Inc, who supplies the Whitecaps and Fifth Third Ballpark with temporary employees is hiring workers for the summer! Batter up!

Over 7,000 people packed into Fifth Third Ballpark--including the entire WFGR Airstaff--to watch the 'Caps win and rededicate the ballpark. After the fire that destroyed 20% of the suites happened in January, no one was quite sure if the park could host baseball in April.

As it's the 20th Whitecaps home opener tonight, let's go back 5 more years, to 1989. The elder Bush was President, we didn't have to eat broccoli, and the World Series was interrupted by the San Francisco earthquake. And a little baseball movie was released on April 7.

So we all know the Whitecaps always love big and unique food items (the Back and the Fifth Third Burger are glowing examples) and now the higher up teams in the Tigers' food chain (pun intended) are following suit.

The West Michigan Whitecaps are rebuilding their ballpark following the fire back in January and preparing for their season. As part of that, they're doing a lot of things and asking for the public's input. First, they asked fans to design their jerseys for Social Media Night. Then, they asked for suggestions for the name of their new mascot. Now, they want the public to vote for which new food i

The West Michigan Whitecaps have a part in the new Will Ferrell movie "Anchorman 2," which is in theaters now. We saw the story on FOX17 on Thursday night. Apparently, a company shot video at Fifth Third Ballpark a few years ago, getting b-roll footage to sell for use in TV shows and movies...

Hunter is my 8 year old son, in case you didn't know. So he's a pretty big baseball fan, so thanks to the good people at the Whitecaps (Mickey Graham) we went to his second Caps game! We went with his older sister (NOT a fan) three years ago, and she was so bored we had to leave early. So Sunday being Kids' day, the little man and I went to the ballyard in Comstock Park!
