As I mentioned in an earlier post, I’ve been migrating my Illinois baseball photos to a new and hopefully better photo gallery (using Smugmug). I was slightly delayed because I took a desperately-needed vacation this past two weeks but I’m ready to unveil it to everybody. You already see the results in the sidebar. In [...]

If you haven’t noticed, there’s a new banner at the top of the IBR web page. This was one of my favorite photos from last season. Nothing captures emotion better than a key homerun during the last series of the season. We can thank Casey McMurray for all of this. This photo was taken after [...]

I’ve updated the banner annually to reflect the changes in the personnel of team for the past few years now. Now that fall practice is over, it was time to do so. The players are, of course, [...]

I started Illinois Baseball Report at the beginning of this year essentially because I thought the team really deserved it. I put a lot of time into it during the the the season and it’s been a lot of fun. Even though the University of Illinois baseball season is over, the pace might be less [...]

On the right sidebar, I placed an icon to my gallery of photos of the Illinois baseball team from the past three years. Take a look around if you want. I’m going to still host the photos on my thebaseballzealot.com domain mostly because it’s just easier that way. Unfortunately, the photos aren’t as indexed or [...]
