ABSTRACT Major League Baseball (MLB) has taken a series of actions over the past five years to penetrate the Chinese market. Watching the success of the National Basketball Association (NBA), MLB can easily identify opportunities in the Chinese market of 1.3 billion people. However, in comparison with an established American market, the Chinese market presents its own challenges and unknown factors, which are challenging the success of MLB’s marketing strategies. With over 20 years’ development in China, the NBA has become a model for the MLB. The focus of this paper is to explore the mimetic and coercive mechanisms of the Isomorphic process being used on the MLB.

  • It Is Always a Challenge to Choose
    The 1997 NBC World Series Final was one that those in attendance will not soon forget. Lawrence- Dumont Stadium was electrified by a ten inning affair between the Nevada (MO) Griffons and the Mat-Su (AK) Miners. 5,640 fans witnessed Mat-Su scrap from behind to win 10-9 in the bottom of the tenth inning to claim the title. Mat-Su’s Mike Cervenak tripled off of the center field wall to start the tenth. Then Nevada elected to intentionally walk the next two hitters to set-up a force play. The Griffons’ efforts were all for naught when Derek Besco, Cervenak’s University of Michigan teammate, drilled the first pitch into left field, scoring Cervenak from third. Mat-Su had been down as many as five runs before gradually fighting their way back to tie the game with two runs in the eighth. Derek Besco finished the night 3 for 5 with 2 RBI including the game winner and takes the bragging rights from his twin brother and adversary, Bryan who happened to be playing for the Griffons. It was the first time the twins had ever faced each other in a game, having always been teammates until this summer. The Mat-Su victory marks the tenth anniversary since they last won the coveted National Baseball Congress Crown, making only two other appearances in the decade. Mat-Su Manager, David Ravitz, took the Manager of the Year honors for bringing the Miners back from a second round loss to the Hays (KS) Larks to win the NBC World Series Championship.
