This was special š Eamon Horwedel, Captain Growler, was inducted into the Growlers Hall of Fame in 2024.
The University of Michigan right-hander pitched for the Growlers for five consecutive summers - a move that is rare in the Northwoods League.
He is one of two players to play for the Growlers for five seasons (Adam Wheaton, 2018-2022).
Wheaton had the honor of stepping onto the field at the Nut Smugglers game in August 2024 and placing the jacket onto Horwedel in front of a packed crowd at Homer Stryker Field.
Horwedel is the third person to be inducted into the Growlers Hall of Fame joining Wheaton and ticket-taker Denise Hopkins.
Congratulations to Eamon Horwedel - you will always be Captain Growler to us and our amazing fans! š
