Wilco: doing good for the community. Chicagoist points out a news item on Wilco's website letting the world know that the band is sponsoring two little league baseball teams, one in Chicago and another in Northampton, Massachusetts.

In Chicago, the band's hometown, Wilco sponsors the Royals, a team in the Warren Park Youth Baseball League, Coach Pitch Division. In Northampton, Wilco and their management company TMM co-sponsor a team with the creative name TMM/Wilco. That one plays in the Northampton Little League, Junior Division. According to this handy site, TMM/Wilco is now in second place in a four-team division, only half a game down from leaders IBS. They're coming for you, IBS!
