    UNOFFICIAL COPY 20 RS BR 2149 1 A RESOLUTION urging Major League Baseball to rescind the ill-advised proposal 2 that threatens the future of the Lexington Legends and professional baseball in Central 3 Kentucky. 4 WHEREAS, The history of professional baseball in Kentucky dates back to July 19, 5 1865. The Louisville Grays hosted the first baseball game played under standard rules 6 west of the Alleghenies, where they defeated the Nashville Cumberlands. When 7 Louisville businessman Walter Haldeman and others formed the National League in 8 1876, this Louisville club was a charter member. Kentucky has not been represented by a 9 major league team since the turn of the 20th century when the Louisville Colonels 10 switched to the minor league, but minor league baseball has flourished in the state. More 11 than 200 Kentucky natives have played major league baseball and four Kentuckians have 12 been elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame: Earl Combs, A.B. "Happy" Chandler, Jim 13 Bunning, and Harold "Pee Wee" Reese. Today, Kentucky hosts three Minor League 14 Baseball teams: Louisville Bats in Louisville, Lexington Legends in Lexington, and the 15 Bowling Green Hot Rods; and 16 WHEREAS, Kentucky's three Minor League Baseball teams, and others in 17 surrounding states nearby, add to the quality of life for many people in Kentucky by 18 providing access to live action, affordable family entertainment throughout the spring and 19 summer months; and 20 WHEREAS, The Lexington Legends are an engine of tourism, welcoming over 21 270,000 fans to their games in 2019 and hosting the KHSAA State Baseball Tournament 22 at their ballpark.

Readers who seek to be entertained will find the sports anecdotes and inside information replete with proverbial page-turning excitement and energy. Those who seek to be educated in many of the legal nuances and practical ramifications of collective bargaining, antitrust regulation, individ- ual contract negotiation, and varieties of arbitration in the world of Major League Baseball will find Miller's book illuminating.
