Aeros host Reading in EL Playoffs beginning Wednesday
After a day off to rest Tuesday, the recharged Aeros begin play in the Eastern League Southern Divisional Series beginning Wednesday night at Canal Park.
The Aeros, who have been in the postseason the last five consecutive seasons, are looking to add a third championship title to the ones earned in 2003 and 2005.
The Aeros head into the playoffs with a season-high eight-game winning streak and at a season-high 36 games over .500. Their 89 wins are the second most in franchise history (the 2002 club won 93 games).
While Reading had to put up quite a fight just to earn the division wild card, word is they may be bringing back EL Rookie of the Year Michael Taylor, their All-Star outfielder who has spent the second half of the season in Triple-A.
