Minor-league baseball: The Surf will do anything

Remember the Atlantic City Surf? They were the Somerset Patriots big Atlantic League rival before splitting for the shorter-season Can-Am League after the 2006 season. Well, here is something from The Associated Press that I read today:

"Gov. Jon S. Corzine's proposed toll hikes are influencing even minor league baseball.The Atlantic City Surf will refund the game-day tolls from the Atlantic City Expressway near Exit 4 for fans attending that night's game. Patrons will get $1 off the price of their game ticket, covering the 50-cent toll coming and going at the Pleasantville interchange.The Surf play at Bernie Robbins Stadium, just off Exit 2 on the expressway. The season starts in late May."
