A: Major League Baseball created the Arizona Fall League in 1992 to serve as an off-season “graduate school” for top prospects. The AFL often is known as a showcase league because its players have the opportunity to display their skills for baseball scouts, general managers, and farm directors. For baseball fans, it’s a 40-day Valley homestand featuring many of baseball’s elite prospects. Q: How many players have played in the Arizona Fall League? A: The Fall League welcomes its 3000th player in 2009. At the conclusion of Major League Baseball’s regular season, over 1700 former Fall Leaguers have reached the big leagues, meaning nearly 60 percent of players assigned to the Fall League can expect to appear in the major leagues. Q: What is the genesis of the Arizona Fall League? A: Long-time baseball executive, current special assistant to the president of the Arizona Diamondbacks, and Phoenix resident Roland Hemond is considered the “Architect of the Fall League.” His dream to create a six-week off-season league for baseball’s top prospects in Arizona each fall became reality when the Arizona Fall League began play in 1992 after he spent two years selling the concept to baseball’s hierarchy — first general managers, then owners. After veteran baseball front-office executive Mike Port shepherded the Fall League through its maiden voyage in 1992, former Cincinnati Reds traveling secretary and Triple-A Columbus Clippers’ executive Steve Cobb was hired as the Fall League’s executive director. Q: Who oversees the Arizona Fall League? A: Major League Baseball owns and operates the Arizona Fall League. Cobb has been the executive director since 1993. Major League Baseball’s Arizona Fall League oversight committee is comprised of three team general managers — Josh Byrnes (Diamondbacks), Tony Reagins (Angels) , and Mark Shapiro (Indians) — and long-time baseball executive Terry Ryan who currently serves the Twins as special advisor to the general manager. Q: How are the teams assembled? A: Each major league organization sends seven players to the Arizona Fall League. Five-organization groupings comprise the six AFL teams. The 2009 groupings follow. Q: Where is the Arizona Fall League located? A: During its season, the Fall League is housed in the spring-training offices of the Oakland Athletics at Phoenix Municipal Stadium. Phoenix Municipal Stadium, 5999 E. Van Buren, Phoenix, AZ 85008 Office: 602/681-9362, FAX: 602/681-9363 During the rest of the year, Steve Cobb and the Arizona Fall League office is located at Major League Baseball’s Western Operations Office. 2415 E. Camelback Road #850, Phoenix, AZ 85016 Office: (602) 281-7250 Q: Who is eligible to play in the Arizona Fall League? A: Roster size is 35 players per team. Each major-league organization is required to provide seven players subject to the following eligibility requirements. All Triple-A and Double-A players are eligible provided they are on Triple-A and Double-A rosters no later than August 1. Two players below the Double-A level are allowed for 2009. Foreign players are allowed as long as the player is not on his native country’s protected player list. No players with more than two years of credited Major League service as of August 31 (including Major League disabled list time) are eligible except a team may select one player picked in the most recently concluded Major League Rule 5 draft. To be eligible, players on Minor League disabled lists must be activated at least 45 days before the conclusion of their respective seasons. Each team is allotted 20 pitchers, but only 15 are designated “eligible” each game day. No game will exceed 11 innings, the “Robinson Rule.” Games tied after 11 innings will be considered suspended. They will not be made up but statistics will count. Q: What is the league’s schedule? A: The six AFL teams each play a 32-game schedule from October 13-November 21. The fourth “Rising Stars Game” will be played at Surprise Stadium at 6:15 p.m. on Saturday, November 7. The league championship game is scheduled for 12:35 p.m. on Saturday, November 21 at Scottsdale Stadium. Q: What changes have been made for the Fall League in 2009? A: • Divisions names have returned to the traditional East and West after one season as the American and National. • The 6:35 p.m. evening start times are 30 minutes earlier than in the past. • The number of allowable players below the Double-A level has increased from one to two for 2009. • Two November games — Rising Stars Game (7th), championship game (21st) — will be simulcast via the MLB Network and MLB.com for the first time. • Five pitchers from Nippon Professional Baseball in Japan are assigned to the Arizona Fall League for the first time. • The Arizona Fall League welcomes a record number (36) of foreign-born players. They represent nine countries — Canada (9), Cuba (4), Dominican Republic (10), Japan (8), Mexico (1), Nicaragua (1), Panama (1), Taiwan (1), and Venezuela (2). Arizona Fall League Q & A (cont.) Q: Where are the games played? A: The 2009 Fall League will utilize five of the Valley’s spring-training stadiums. • Mesa Hohokam Stadium, spring home of the Cubs (Mesa Solar Sox) • Phoenix Municipal Stadium, spring home of the Athletics (Phoenix Desert Dogs) • Peoria Sports Complex, spring home of the Mariners/Padres (Peoria Javelinas & Saguaros) • Scottsdale Stadium, spring home of the Giants (Scottsdale Scorpions) • Surprise Stadium, spring home of the Rangers/Royals (Surprise Rafters) Also, the Fall League will utilize the two newest spring-training venues for two games this season. • Camelback Ranch-Glandale, spring home of the Dodgers/White Sox (one Peoria Saguaros home game), Nov. 14 • Goodyear Stadium, spring home of the Indians/Reds (one Peoria Javelinas home game), Oct. 31 Q: Why are daily start times? A: First pitch for day games is 12:35 p.m. and 6:35 for night contests: Q: Is the designated hitter rule employed in the Arizona Fall League? A: Yes, the designated hitter is utilized in all Fall League games. Q: What contributions has the Fall League made to baseball off the field? A: Twenty-four former AFL managers and players have become major-league managers, including 13 in 2009 — Dusty Baker (Reds), Dave Clark (Astros), Cecil Cooper (Astros), Terry Francona (Red Sox), Fredi Gonzalez (Marlins), Trey Hillman (Royals), A.J.

  • A's News Clips, Saturday, July 23, 2011 New York Yankees Put Hurt
    A’s News Clips, Saturday, July 23, 2011 New York Yankees put hurt on Trevor Cahill, Oakland A's in 17-7 romp By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune NEW YORK -- Trevor Cahill took his struggles against the New York Yankees to another level Friday night at Yankee Stadium. The A's right-hander was charged with a career-high 10 earned runs in a 17-7 blowout defeat to open a three-game series. The A's have now lost 11 straight to the Yankees. Cahill allowed nine hits and lasted just two-plus innings in the shortest start of his career. After being staked to a 2-0 lead, he allowed five runs in the bottom of the second. Then he allowed Nick Swisher's three-run homer in the third, as the Yankees batted around in a nine-run rally. Michael Wuertz relieved Cahill in the third but fared no better, walking in two runs before allowing Mark Teixeira's grand slam. Cahill's 10 earned runs were the most allowed by an A's starter since Gio Gonzalez surrendered 11 to the Twins on July 20, 2009. Oakland A's update: Rookie second baseman Jemile Weeks savors first trip to Yankee Stadium By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune NEW YORK -- When A's rookie second baseman Jemile Weeks arrived at Yankee Stadium on Friday afternoon, he immediately went out to the field to take it all in. "You're talking a big deal, first time at Yankee Stadium," Weeks said. "It's an exciting time for me, just to look at the stadium and out into the stands to get a feel of what it's like." Weeks certainly played inspired in his first visit to the ballpark.
