Minor League Baseball Would Like to Thank the Following Partners for Their Support of Milb Charities 2018 MiLB Community Report MiLB Community 2018 Dear Friends and Colleagues, Thank you for making 2018 another successful philanthropic year for Minor League Baseball, its 160 teams and MiLB Charities. As we reflect on the accomplishments of last year and look ahead to MiLB Charities’ 15th year of existence in 2019, we have a great deal to be proud of and celebrate. Our dedicated staff in the national office, the commitment from all teams and the overwhelming support of our loyal fans have enabled us to take our charitable giving to new heights. For the fourth consecutive year, all 160 teams reported their charitable giving and contributions to the Minor League Baseball office, allowing us to compile the most accurate total of our combined efforts. I am happy to share that in 2018, MiLB Charities totaled more than $45 million in cash donations and in-kind gifts from MiLB teams and leagues—the largest number to date. Additionally, MiLB and its teams logged over 15,000 total volunteer hours in support of their local communities. | LETTER FROM PAT O’CONNER LETTER FROM PAT Some of the highlights from our numerous programs in 2018 — which you will read more about in this report — include the MiLB CommUNITY Initiative, the “Cover Your Bases” Sun Safety Initiative in partnership with the American Cancer Society, Big Brothers Big Sisters Rising Star Students, Derrick Hall Pro-State Foundation Father’s Day Initiative in conjunction with the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Joe Torre Safe At Home Domestic Violence Awareness Initiative and the BUSH’s Beans “Team Up Against Hunger” Food Drive. Through these and other initiatives, Minor League Baseball and its teams, Charity Partners and national marketing partners have made a lasting and measurable impact in MiLB communities. Our ongoing goal is to continue to expand our outreach while strengthening our programs and services. MiLB Charities is stronger than ever because of everyone who has come together to donate time, resources and talent in support of our important mission: to give back and to enhance communities that have supported our member clubs for over 100 years. A shining example of our collective efforts was the 10th annual MiLB Charities Community Service Project, presented by Musco Sports Lighting, at the Minor League Baseball Promotional Seminar (now known as the MiLB Innovators Summit). More than 150 Promotional Seminar attendees representing MiLB teams from across the country packaged meals for Meals from the Heartland, a Des Moines-based organization that provides packaged meals to the hungry across Iowa, the United States and around the world. As one of the most popular events of the Promotional Seminar, the MiLB Charities Community Service Project has left its mark on Promo Seminar host communities for nearly a decade. I am extremely proud that MiLB personnel choose to give their time in this way, and in the process, build meaningful relationships with one another and organizations in need. I hope, as you read the following pages, you will be both proud of your efforts, and use it as a catalyst to continue to do good work in your community. As I have in the past, I encourage each of you to play an active role in your #MiLBCommUNITY and identify how you can share MiLB Charities’ mission. Sincerely, Pat O’Conner President & CEO Minor League Baseball 2018 MiLB Community Report MiLB Community 2018 MISSION STATEMENT “The mission of Minor League Baseball Charities is to give back to and enhance communities that have supported our member clubs for over 100 years.

Through these ongoing efforts, our clubs and leagues have distinguished themselves within their communities and with municipalities, sponsors and fans. The Minor League Baseball Charity Partners program was developed against this backdrop to bring increased awareness to national charities that were engaging with Minor League Baseball on a local level. The 2018 Minor League Baseball Charity Partners were The American Cancer Society, The ALS Association and Big Brothers Big Sisters. Homegrown Charity Partners for 2018 were The BairFind Foundation and | Ed Randall’s Fans for the Cure. BACKGROUND Minor League Baseball operates MiLB Charities, a tax exempt 501(c)(3) charitable organization affiliated with The National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues, Inc. (NAPBL). MiLB Charities is a vehicle through which association-wide efforts can be streamlined in support of charitable causes important to the extended Minor League Baseball family through donations, scholarships and provision of relief when tragedy or hardship occurs in our clubs’ cities and communities. Annually, Minor League Baseball surveys each team and league to measure our industry’s collective level of participation through gift-in-kind and cash donations and events that support various charities in our ballparks. The online reporting portal allows teams and leagues to update their charitable activities throughout the year and upload pictures directly to the site. This information can later be used by individual leagues to produce community benefit reports. In 2018, 160 clubs responded to the survey, yielding the following results: 2018 TOTAL CHARITABLE 2018 TOTAL CHARITABLE CASH DONATIONS GIFTS–IN–KIND FROM MiLB TEAMS AND LEAGUES FROM MiLB TEAMS AND LEAGUES $19,592,204 $25,516,753 2 NOTE: The cash donation is a combination of monetary and in-stadium fundraising. © 2019.

  • Branch Rickey Was Born in 1880 and Branch Rickey Grew up on a Modest Farm in Southern Wohio
    esley Branch Rickey was born in 1880 and Branch Rickey grew up on a modest farm in southern WOhio. His parents instilled Branch with General Manager, strong Christian values that would remain with him throughout his life. Schooled in a one room St. Louis Cardinals schoolhouse, he taught himself Latin and Greek and went on to attend Ohio Wesleyan University where he played baseball and football. While still in college, he was invited to play professional baseball. Wanting his parents’ approval for his involvement in pro ball, he pledged to them to never go into a baseball stadium on a Sunday, a promise that became a lifetime commitment. After a short stint as a catcher with the St. Louis Browns and New York Highlanders, he went on to complete his law degree at the University of Michigan. After coaching for a short time at Michigan, he spent most of the next ten years managing in the major leagues. It was Branch’s sharp eye for talent that brought him to the business side of baseball, where he would revolutionize the game. As General Manager for the St. Louis Cardinals, Rickey originated the concept of the “farm system”, utilizing minor league farm clubs to develop talent for major league teams. Soon the Cardinals were a National League power and teams everywhere were copying Branch’s system. Thanks to Rickey’s innovation and determination, the Cardinals produced nine pennants and six world championships from 1926 -1947. Later as president and general manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers, Rickey decided that in order for baseball to be truly “the national pastime,” a long tradition of whites-only would have to be broken.

Therefore, I am using this plat- form to address some issues that have come to my attention. Since the cost for out-of-town memberships to our Senior Center went up in January 2020, there have been a few miscon- ceptions that have come to my attention. First and foremost, the one rumor that I would definitely like to address is the story going around that the Prospect Town Council raised the dues of our out-of-town members because they are trying to “get rid” of the non-residents that come here. The story goes that the Town Council is trying to keep our Senior Center strictly for Prospect residents only. Nothing could be further from the truth. I value the out-of-town members who come here. I feel they have contributed significantly to the growth of our Senior Center. Many of these members run programs here and volun- teer in a number of different capacities. They are my lifeline and help me in ways that I could never repay them for. I and the Town Council members would never want to “get rid” of them. I will tell you point blank why the Town Council decided to raise membership dues for out- of-town members.

    LINE DRIVES THE NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 48, No. 3, Apr. 17, 2009) The President’s Message By NCBWA President Joe Dier NCBWA Membership: With the 2008-09 hoops season now in the record books, the collegiate spotlight is focusing more closely on the nation’s baseball diamonds. Though we’re heading into the final month of the season, there are still plenty of twists and turns ahead on the road to Omaha and the 2009 NCAA College World Series. The NCAA will soon be announcing details of next month’s tournament selection announcements naming the regional host sites (May 24) and the 64-team tournament field (May 25). To date, four different teams have claimed the top spot in the NCBWA’s national Division I polls --- Arizona State, Georgia, LSU, and North Carolina. Several other teams have graced the No. 1 position in other national polls. The NCAA’s mid-April RPI listing has Cal State Fullerton leading the 301-team pack, with 19 teams sporting 25-win records through games of April 12. For the record, New Mexico State tops the wins list with a 30-6 mark. As the conference races heat up from coast to coast, the NCBWA will begin the process for naming its All- America teams and the Divk Howser Trophy (see below). We will have a form going out to conference offices and Division I independents in coming days. Last year’s NCBWA-selected team included 56 outstanding baseball athletes, and we want to have the names of all deserving players on the table for consideration for this year’s awards.

Bud spent 32 years at the University from 1948 to 1980 as an instructor, basketball coach, athletic director and coach of the baseball program. Baseball was his passion, and where he made his mark. As a member of the New York Yankees from 1937 to 1946, Bud played on the 1943 World Series championship squad that stopped St. Louis. Bud started for the Yankees in the second and last game of the series. As a coach of the Monarchs, he rolled up a 423‑363‑6 record and was honored by the NCAA as the Eastern Regional coach of the year in 1963 and ‘64 and National Coach Of the Year in 1964. His Monarchs won the NCAA College Division Eastern Regional championship in 1963 and 1964 and took second in 1965. Bud not only coached baseball, but he was the men’s basketball head coach from 1948‑1965, compiling a 198‑163 record and posting 16 winning seasons. He served as the University’s athletic director from 1963‑1970. Following his retirement it was only fitting to honor Bud with the naming of the new baseball stadium in 1983 and with the adoption of the blue and white pin stripes of the Yankees on uniforms the following year, which coincides with the University’s new school colors, adopted in 1986.
