The wait is almost over. A new baseball team is about ready to take the field in Hartford, and fans will tell you it's not a moment too soon.
The Harriers are the latest expansion team to join AHIBA, the premier baseball league in the nation. The club will play in the Ruth Division of the Sluggers League.
Among the players to watch are first baseman 1B Gustavo Vélez and closer Rafael Chávez. Both should be able to contribute right away, though it will likely be a while before the team is competitive. Such is the nature of an expansion club.
The team will unveil its new ballpark and uniforms shortly after the new year.
