The Freedom have been known for their town players having gumption and fight, despite their woeful record over the course of league history. Until last year, the Upper had two divisions of four teams, so those 4th place finishes are actually all last place.
The town paper (yes, they still have a once-a-week newspaper called the Herald, printed on Wednesdays) has announced that it has hired a new editor and an office manager, both part-time.

The names have been withheld pending a related announcement that has to do with recreational baseball. I guess that's code for Town Ball. No details are available, but the locals are already buzzing about a new outfielder and pitcher. Hard to say if they have inside info on this one.
