Weimer Closing out his Playing Days to coach at Utica College

By Justin Felisko on June 26, 2009

Bridgeport, CT–Tuesday night’s Atlantic League All-Star Game was a bittersweet moment for Bluefish relief pitcher Andy Weimer.  The righty made his first and, most likely, his last All-Star appearance of his professional baseball career pitching one scoreless inning in the Liberty Division’s 7-5 victory.  The sidearm closer from New Hartford, NY will be closing the [...]

By Justin Felisko on June 5, 2009
