Coming in June DeKalb gets a Collegiate Prospecting Baseball team called the Liners.  These games will be played at Founders Field in sycamore. Looks like there are about 15 home games, price varies from 6 – 10 dollars.  there is group pricing and table pricing as well.

Here is a little information taken from the Liners website

The Liners baseball team roster will include local and national collegiate players.

The Liners are members of the Prospect Summer Collegiate Baseball League. The Prospect League is comprised of teams participating in 3 divisions, in Illinois, Missouri, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Tennessee. Since the 1960’s, the Prospect League has been attracting some of the most talented collegiate baseball players to play their summer baseball in the league. Nearby teams are located in Springfield, Danville, Quincy and Lisle, Illinois. Listed below are some of the many current and past major leaguers who have played in the Prospect League: Gary Gaetti, Joe Girardi, Rusty Greer, Ken Holtzman, Ryan Howard, Don Kessinger, Jonathon Papelbon, Kirby Puckett, Rick Reuschel, Mike Schmidt, Kevin Seitzer, Tim Stoddard and Jim Sundberg.
