In total, the new player development system includes 179 teams across 17 leagues in 43 states and four provinces. Including the AZL and GCL, there are 209 teams across 19 leagues in 44 states and four provinces. That includes the 150 teams in the PDL and AZL/GCL along with the four partner leagues: the American Association, Atlantic League, Frontier League and Pioneer League. The long-time Triple-A structure of the International and Pacific Coast Leagues have been replaced by Triple-A East and Triple-A West. Triple-A East consists on 20 teams; all 14 from the International League, plus teams moving from the Pacific Coast League, the Southern League and the independent Atlantic League. Triple-A West is comprised of nine Pacific Coast League teams and one addition from the Atlantic League. These changes were made to help reduce travel and allow Major League teams to have their affiliates, in most cases, within 200 miles of the parent club (or play at their Spring Training facilities). triple-a clubs & affiliates midwest northeast southeast e Columbus (Cleveland Indians) Buffalo (Toronto Blue Jays) Charlotte (Chicago White Sox) Indianapolis (Pittsburgh Pirates) Lehigh Valley (Philadelphia Phillies) Durham (Tampa Bay Rays) a Iowa (Chicago Cubs) Rochester (Washington Nationals) Gwinnett (Atlanta Braves) s Louisville (Cincinnati Reds) Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre (New York Yankees) Jacksonville (Miami Marlins) Omaha (Kansas City Royals) Syracuse (New York Mets) Memphis (St.

Twins history began in 1961 when Washington Senators president Calvin Griffith made the historic decision to move his family’s team to the Midwest, settling on the Minneapolis/St. Paul area in Minnesota. The new team was named after the state’s famous Twin Cities and began their inaugual season with a talented roster featuring Harmon Killebrew, Bob Allison, Camilo Pascual, and Jim Lemon. Homegrown talents Jim Kaat, Zoilo Versalles, Jimmie Hall, and Tony Oliva combined with the Twins already potent nucleus to make the team a force to be reckoned with in the 1960s.

MN 55455 (612) 625-4090 Fax 625-0359 For Immediate Release Mar. 20, 1995 Eleven Golden Gophers Qualify For NCAA Men's Swimming & Diving Championships University of Minnesota head coach Dennis Dale will take 11 swimmers and divers with him to this week's NCAA men's champi­ onships in Indianapolis. Heading the list is diver P.J. Bogart (Jr., Mesa, Ariz.), who earned Big Ten titles in three diving events a month ago. The junior won the national title on the 10-meter platform as a freshman in 1993. Other 1995 Big Ten champs who will be competing for the Gophers include Derek Williams (Jr., Lansdale, Pa.) and Paul Domer (Sr., Eau Claire, Wis.). Williams, who set a new Big Ten record in the 100 fly, has qualified for the national meet in that event as well as the 50 free and the 200 fly. Domer, the conference winner in the 200 breast, will compete in that event as well as the 100 breast at the national meet. Other top contenders for Minnesota include Bernie Zeruhn (Jr., Hamburg, Germany) in the 200 free and Manolis Lentaris (Fr., Rania, Crete, Greece) in the 500 free. In addition to the 11 individual qualifiers, all five Golden Gopher relay teams have qualified for the national championships. A year ago Minnesota finished seventh at the national meet when it was held at the U of M Aquatic Center. The Golden Gophers are currently ranked ninth in the country according to the most recent (3/9/95) national poll.
