    2020 International League Field Managers Eight Il Clubs to Be Led by New Skippers This Season

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 11, 2020 2020 INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE FIELD MANAGERS EIGHT IL CLUBS TO BE LED BY NEW SKIPPERS THIS SEASON When the International League's 137th season opens on April 9, eight of the circuit’s fourteen teams will have a new manager leading the quest to capture the coveted Governors’ Cup trophy. Only six managers return from the 2019 season, although several of the League’s new field generals bring pre-existing ties to their teams and communities. It is the first time since 2006 that more than half of the circuit’s clubs changed managers during an offseason. The reining IL Manager of the Year Damon Berryhill is the International League’s longest- tenured manager, preparing to begin his fourth season at the helm of the Gwinnett Stripers. Also hoping to get his team back to the postseason is Brady Williams, who took Durham to the finals in his first year with the Bulls in 2019. They will be challenged in the South Division by another returning manager in Norfolk, Gary Kendall. The 2018 IL Manager of the Year, Lehigh Valley’s Gary Jones, will lead the IronPigs once again this season. Like Jones, Brian Esposito in Indianapolis is also at the helm for the third straight campaign. IL Hall of Famer Billy McMillon will manage the Red Sox for the franchise’s final season at McCoy Stadium in Pawtucket. Two men have found themselves moving from a coach’s role to the manager’s chair in 2020. Pennsylvania-native Doug Davis (former Syracuse manager) takes over in Scranton/Wilkes- Barre after three seasons coaching, while in Columbus, Ohio-native Andy Tracy is the new manager after helping lead the Clippers to the 2019 Governors’ Cup title as hitting coach.

    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2017 BLACKMON WORKING TOWARD HISTORIC SEASON On Sunday afternoon against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Coors Field, Colorado Rockies All-Star outfi elder Charlie Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and his 24th home run of the season. With the round-tripper, Blackmon recorded his 57th extra-base hit on the season, which include 20 doubles, 13 triples and his aforementioned 24 home runs. Pacing the Majors in triples, Blackmon trails only his teammate, All-Star Nolan Arenado for the most extra-base hits (60) in the Majors. Blackmon is looking to become the fi rst Major League player to log at least 20 doubles, 20 triples and 20 home runs in a single season since Curtis Granderson (38-23-23) and Jimmy Rollins (38-20-30) both accomplished the feat during the 2007 season. Since 1901, there have only been seven 20-20-20 players, including Granderson, Rollins, Hall of Famers George Brett (1979) and Willie Mays (1957), Jeff Heath (1941), Hall of Famer Jim Bottomley (1928) and Frank Schulte, who did so during his MVP-winning 1911 season. Charlie would become the fi rst Rockies player in franchise history to post such a season. If the season were to end today, Blackmon’s extra-base hit line (20-13-24) has only been replicated by 34 diff erent players in MLB history with Rollins’ 2007 season being the most recent. It is the fi rst stat line of its kind in Rockies franchise history. Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig is the only player in history to post such a line in four seasons (1927-28, 30-31).

    Beauty in Art, Mathematics, and Nature

    Beauty in Art, Mathematics, and Nature On Wednesday October 3,2001 Professor John Pastor presented a colloquium on the beauty in art, mathematics, and nature. Professor Pastor explained that he does field experiments and constructs mathematical models, while exploring the patterns in nature as well. Not only does Professor Pastor teach classes in Biological illustration, Ecosystems Ecology, and Mathematical Ecology, he dra'Ys and paints his studies of nature. Throughout Professor Pasto!s lecture he illustrated the concept ofbeauty in various paintings ofnature. He would put tip a slide ofone ofhis paintings, say a group oftrees in a forest, and analyze how particular lines oftree trunks illustrated the beauty in the painting. The lines ofthe trunks would break up the painting intp two rectangles, k often how famous painters would do themselves, and just by this one line would create a . beautiful work ofart. We can now tie beauty in art with math. Professor Pastor talked about how equations can be beautiful.· He said that beautiful equations have the following characteristics: 1) symmetry, 2) economy offono, 3) interconnection with other sciences, 4) maximum ofstructure from a minimum ofinputs, 5) emergence of . unanticipated results, and 6) unbiased conformance with data. Therefore, we see in mathematics that there are many beautiful equations and with tbls we get balance. Much like the balance in a painting, beautiful equations are balanced in themselves. My favorite concept ofmathematics in nature that Professor Pastor talked about was the logarithmic spiral. This means that whatever radius you pick in the spiral, the tangent always occurs at the same place in the spiral.
