Madison, WI - In another classy move by the franchise, following closely on the heels of the Salazar enshrinement into the Wolves HOF, the front office has decided to retire #31 in honor of Steve Dempsey. He now joins Puckett & Kengos in having his number retired for the Wolves. "Its a great honor to have this done for me by the club where I spent 14 years of my life. I really would like to thank GM Wilson for drafting me and then allowing me to play my last three years in Portland." I still have a home in Wisconsin, and will always call Madison my home. I look forward to taking my kids to the game seeing my number up in legends park. Dempsey said at his press conference. GM Simon has always made me feel welcome in Madison even after I left.

Bootleg Dempsey played in 2001 games for Madison, batting .326 with 2687 hits and posting a 28.0 career WAR for the club.

That is officially the first time I have seen the game do that automatically. I have to say, I love it.

They did it last year for Winson for me.
