USA Baseball, which relocated its national headquarters to the Triangle in early 2003, will receive a $1 million portion of that funding to assist with the development of a four-field National Training Center in Cary, NC. “USA Baseball is overwhelmed that the Wake County Government has decided to include our project in their funding,” said Paul Seiler, Executive Director and CEO. “This money will be directly dedicated towards the building of a national training center that not only Wake County should be proud to have, but that fans and USA Baseball players from all across America will be able to enjoy.” “We appreciate the county commissioners’ recognition and support of this very important economic development opportunity,” said Town of Cary Mayor Ernie McAlister. “Their contribution will play a significant role in making the project a success.” The Town of Cary has budgeted $8.5 million towards the training facility, which will include four baseball fields, a clubhouse, an entry plaza/retail area, batting cages, concessions, and a maintenance facility on 127 acres in Thomas Brooks Park, just west of HWY 55.

  • A's News Clips, Tuesday, April 12, 2011 Kurt Suzuki Hits Game
    A’s News Clips, Tuesday, April 12, 2011 Kurt Suzuki hits game-winning home run in 10th inning as A's beat White Sox By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune CHICAGO -- The opportunities were few for the A's on Monday, but Kurt Suzuki was ready when he got his. His homer in the top of the 10th off Jesse Crain lifted the A's to a 2-1 victory over the Chicago White Sox in front of 20,057 fans at U.S. Cellular Field. It marked the A's third straight victory, and it was another example of their ability to make a lot out of a little. Left-hander Mark Buehrle bottled them up for eight innings and held them hitless through five. The A's managed just five hits total, yet claimed their fourth win in the past five games and evened their record at 5-5. "We dropped too many of those last year, those 10-, 11-inning ballgames," A's starting pitcher Dallas Braden said. "We'd like to turn that ship around and be on the other end of that." The A's went 4-7 in extra-inning affairs in 2010, the third-worst record in the American League. Good karma might be the only explanation for how they even extended Monday's game past the ninth. The Sox led 1-0 when Matt Thornton relieved Buehrle to start the ninth. Andy LaRoche greeted Thornton with a double. After Coco Crisp lined out, Daric Barton lofted a deep fly to the left-field corner.
