    SEATTLE MARINERS NEWS CLIPS February 26, 2011 Smoak’s days of being a surprise about over Posted on February 25, 2011 by John Hickey SportsPressNW.com PEORIA, AZ – At this time last year, Justin Smoak was working out about 10 miles down the road in the Texas Rangers’ spring training camp in Surprise. And there were not going to be any surprises in his Surprise sojourn. He was coming off his first full year in the Texas organization, he’d only played 54 games at Triple-A and the Rangers’ offense seemed set. So in the first week of March, he was reassigned to the club’s minor league organization and he prepared for a full season at Triple-A. Then the surprises started happening, and they’ve never really stopped. Three weeks into the season, the Rangers found themselves in need of a left-hander with power who could play first base. On April 23, Smoak, a switch-hitter with most of his power from the left side, was called up. He struggled a bit, but he was basically a regular in the lineup of a team in first place in the American League West. He played 70 games for the Rangers, hit .209 and hit eight homers in 235 at-bats. Just when it seemed the April surprise might lead to a date in the postseason, fate jumped up and smacked Smoak again on July 9. The Rangers sent him and three Texas minor leaguers – pitchers Josh Lueke and Blake Beavan and infielder Matt Lawson — to Seattle with the Mariners surrendering pitchers Cliff Lee and Mark Lowe in return.

  • @UCMMULES • @Mules Baseball • #Teamucm BASEBALL 1 Crane Stadium / Tompkins Field Has Served As Host Site for Numerous MIAA and Regional Tournaments
    @UCMMULES • @Mules_Baseball • #teamUCM BASEBALL 1 Crane Stadium / Tompkins Field has served as host site for numerous MIAA and Regional Tournaments. In the spring of 1998 Central Missouri enjoyed the completion of an outstanding baseball facility to go with its already outstanding baseball program – James R. Crane Stadium at Robert N. Tompkins Field. A $1.2 million construction project, funded primarily by Crane, added a locker room and coaches’ offices for the Mules, an umpires dressing room, new dugouts, permanent seats, a concession stand, a press box and lights to the already existing playing field. In the fall of 2004, a new facility was added to include indoor batting cages and bullpens, a weight room, storage facility, and umpires dressing room. Following that in 2006, permanent seatback chairs were installed for the fans. All of this was funded by Crane. In the summer of 2013, the stadium received another upgrade with a new grass playing surface being installed. In the fall of 2015, a $1.1 million project to outfit the stadium with a sythentic turf playing surface was funded primarily by Crane. The project, which includes synthetic turf from AstroTurf, was completed prior to the Mules’ 2016 home-opener On January 21, 1998, Central Missouri’s Board of Governors approved the naming of the facility, formerly known as Mules’ Field, in honor of Crane and Tompkins. Official dedication ceremonies were held on May 2, 1998. The facility was showcased in the October 1998 issue of Athletics Administration magazine. The first night game played under the new lights took place on March 25, 1998, with the Mules beating Benedictine College 21-6.

    Detroit Tigers Clips Tuesday, November 1, 2016 Detroit Free Press Tigers prospects Christin Stewart, Adam Ravenelle named ‘Fall-Stars’ (Fenech) The Detroit News Tigers’ Stewart, Ravenelle picked for ‘Fall Stars’ game (Paul) MLive.com A look at Tigers eligible to become minor league free agents next week (Woodbery) MLB.com Decisions looming on Maybin, K-Rod for Tigers (Beck) Tigers' Ravenelle, Stewart named to Fall Stars Game (Mayo) Daily Transactions 1 Tigers prospects Christin Stewart, Adam Ravenelle named ‘Fall-Stars’ November 1, 2016 By Anthony Fenech/ Detroit Free Press Two Detroit Tigers prospects were selected to the Arizona Fall League’s Fall Stars Game. Outfielder Christin Stewart and right-handed reliever Adam Ravenelle will represent the organization at the league’s annual showcase game. Not selected this season was centerfielder JaCoby Jones. Stewart has struggled this fall, hitting .198 (7-for-37) with one home run and three RBIs in 10 games. The second-round draft pick out of Tennessee in 2015 had a strong debut for his first full professional season, with 30 home runs and 87 RBIs at Class A Lakeland and Double-A Erie. Ravenelle should garner consideration for a big league call-up sometime next season. Armed with a high-90 m.p.h. fastball, the righty out of Vanderbilt has allowed one hit in six innings this fall. He has recorded four saves for the Salt River Rafters, striking out three and walking three. Jones is playing well, going 13-for-39 in 11 games, with one home run and seven RBIs. Jones, who logged limited time with the Tigers last season, could compete for the starting centerfielder job if the team decides against picking up Cameron Maybin’s $9-million contract option and elects to fill the spot internally.
