Episode #398: Energy City Update + Justin Simard, Colton Bank, Johnny Vulcano & Simon Baker – Alberta Dugout Stories: The Podcast

It has been a crazy week with one major story dominating the headlines. We take a deep dive into all that has transpired as the Western Canadian Baseball League has granted approval to the Energy City Cactus Rats hosting home games for the rest of the season. We provide a lot of context and some lengthy clips from league president Kevin Kvame's news conference on Wednesday. After that, we hear from Regina Red Sox veterans Justin Simard and Colton Bank, Medicine Hat Mavericks infielder Johnny Vulcano, and we catch up with Cochrane's Simon Baker after his award-winning college season. 11:54 – Justin Simard 15:53 – Colton Bank 19:08 – Johnny Vulcano 27:37 – Simon Baker
