The famous name of Australian baseballing royalty returned to the Brisbane lineup with regularity last season, with Mitch Nilsson returning for his fifth season with the Bandits in 2014-15. Nilsson's preceding two ABL seasons had both seen him play only a single game each season. I'm sure that his uncle - Bandits' Manager and former MLB player Dave Nilsson, and Mitch's father Gary Nilsson, the Bandits' pitching coach were happy to have their nephew/son back into the lineup throughout the season.

Royalty indeed. I don't suppose Harry is somehow related as well? :P
