UNI BASEBALL CELEBRATES 100 YEARS OF WINNING Dating back to 1893, no University of Northern Iowa athletic team has won more games than the Panther baseball program. This season, UNI baseball opens its lOOth season with 952 wins all-time. (No baseball team was fielded in 1903-04, 1909-10 and 1943-45.) Originally begun when the school was known as Iowa State Normal School, the baseball team has represented the school when it was also known as Iowa State Teachers College and the State College of Iowa before assuming its present title in 1967. Starting in the years with Captain Avery as coach of the first two squads, the Panthers have built a program that thrives on hard­ working young men dedicated to being the best they can be on the diamond and in the classroom. Last year was no exception, as five Panthers; Ryan McGuire, Kevin Briggeman, Greg Woodin, Scott Sobkowiak and Aaron Houdeshell were named academic all-MVC by the sports information directors of the league.

Printed on Recycled Paper. do your part! please recycle! 2017 is the third year of The United States Conference of Mayors and Major League Baseball (MLB) Play Ball Summer Campaign. This year mayors in the United States and Puerto Rico hosted “PLAY BALL” -themed, youth-focused events in communities from June through August 2017. Play Ball is a joint program from MLB and USA Baseball that focuses on the fun nature of baseball and encourages widespread participation in baseball-related activities. A primary goal of the Play Ball Summer Initiative is to reach kids who don’t normally play baseball. Building on the success of previous years, this year - over 255 mayors pledged to host Play Ball events in cities. Mayors were encouraged to engage youth, citizens, families, and city departments to organize community Play Ball events. From June to August mayors across the country hosted activities such as: baseball/ softball themed clinic days for park and recreation summer camps, playing lunchtime catch games outside of city hall, hosting pitch, hit and run clinics with Little Leagues, showcasing the pastime at the local international festival, as well as hosting baseball themed movie nights with pre-movie baseball drills that engaged families.

  • The Effects of Collective Bargaining on Minor League Baseball Players
    \\jciprod01\productn\H\HLS\4-1\HLS102.txt unknown Seq: 1 14-MAY-13 15:57 Touching Baseball’s Untouchables: The Effects of Collective Bargaining on Minor League Baseball Players Garrett R. Broshuis* Abstract Collective bargaining has significantly altered the landscape of labor relations in organized baseball. While its impact on the life of the major league player has garnered much discussion, its impact on the majority of professional baseball players—those toiling in the minor leagues—has re- ceived scant attention. Yet an examination of every collective bargaining agreement between players and owners since the original 1968 Basic Agree- ment reveals that collective bargaining has greatly impacted minor league players, even though the Major League Baseball Players Association does not represent them. While a few of the effects of collective bargaining on the minor league player have been positive, the last two agreements have estab- lished a dangerous trend in which the Players Association consciously con- cedes an issue with negative implications for minor leaguers in order to receive something positive for major leaguers. Armed with a court-awarded antitrust exemption solidified by legisla- tion, Major League Baseball has continually and systematically exploited mi- * Prior to law school, the author played six years as a pitcher in the San Francisco Giants’ minor league system and wrote about life in the minors for The Sporting News and Baseball America. He has represented players as an agent and is a J.D. Candidate, 2013, at Saint Louis University School of Law. The author would like to thank Professor Susan A. FitzGibbon, Director, William C.

  • Chicago Cubs Organization
    1 Dear Midwest League Fans: On behalf of Minor League Baseball and the Midwest League, I want to welcome you to the ballpark for another exciting season of Minor League Baseball! The 2019 season will see the opening of new ballparks in Amarillo, Texas; Las Vegas, Nevada; and Fayetteville, North Carolina, and based on the success of Minor League Baseball’s Hispanic/Latinx fan engagement initiative, Copa de la Diversión, that program will expand from 33 to 72 teams as our teams expand their efforts to be more representative of their communities. While you may see some new logos and team identities this spring and summer, what remains the same is the quality, affordable family entertainment in a clean and safe environment that is a staple of Minor League Baseball across the country. With 20 leagues and more than 250 clubs, Minor League Baseball is where you will find the next generation of baseball’s brightest stars on their way to the big leagues. You just might be watching the next Kris Bryant in South Bend tonight, the next Mike Trout in Cedar Rapids or the next Vladimir Guerrero Jr. in Lansing! The Midwest League has a long history of clubs making a difference in their communities while also providing a great product on the field and in the stands. The Midwest League was the most charitable of our leagues when it comes to giving back to its communities as the 16 clubs made gift in‐kind contributions of over $6 million in 2018! Minor League Baseball also remains an integral part of the sports landscape, and of the communities it represents.
