AUBURN, N.Y. -- It's another sure sign that summer is right around the corner. The Doubledays return to Auburn. We got our first look at the defending New York Penn League champions on Sunday, as they held their annual Media Day.

Several players return from last year's squad. They'll be joined by many new faces, including one that local fans will know. Former Liverpool high school and SUNY Cortland pitcher Jimmy Dougher is in Auburn after playing last year in the Gulf Coast League.

After spending several months down in extended spring training, everybody is ready for Tuesday's opener with Batavia.
