  • Indians Party Like It's 1997 After Winning Pennant
    Indians party like it's 1997 after winning pennant Cleveland will host Game 1 of the World Series for first time in its history By Jordan Bastian / MLB.com | @MLBastian | 12:38 AM ET TORONTO -- They took turns passing the trophy around. A bottle in one hand and the hardware in the other, one by one, Cleveland's players savored their moment. They would stare at it, champagne dripping from the gold eagle that sits atop the black base, pausing for a moment before posing for photos. In that brief personal moment, the players probably thought about all that had to happen for the Indians to reach this stage, for that trophy to be placed in their arms. Wednesday's 3-0 win over the Blue Jays in Game 5 of the American League Championship Series, a victory that clinched the franchise's sixth AL pennant, gave the world a look at what has defined this Indians team all season long, and why it is now going to the World Series. "I'm just really happy that we're standing here today," said Indians president Chris Antonetti, as his players partied on the other side of Rogers Centre's visitors' clubhouse. "However we got here, I'm not sure I've reflected back on. But this team, the resiliency, the grit, the perseverance to overcome all that they've gone through over the course of the season ..." More champagne bottles popped behind him. "The guys we have are not focused on who's not here," he continued, "but focused on the guys that are here and [they] try to find a way to help them win.

  • 2020 International League Field Managers Eight Il Clubs to Be Led by New Skippers This Season
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 11, 2020 2020 INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE FIELD MANAGERS EIGHT IL CLUBS TO BE LED BY NEW SKIPPERS THIS SEASON When the International League's 137th season opens on April 9, eight of the circuit’s fourteen teams will have a new manager leading the quest to capture the coveted Governors’ Cup trophy. Only six managers return from the 2019 season, although several of the League’s new field generals bring pre-existing ties to their teams and communities. It is the first time since 2006 that more than half of the circuit’s clubs changed managers during an offseason. The reining IL Manager of the Year Damon Berryhill is the International League’s longest- tenured manager, preparing to begin his fourth season at the helm of the Gwinnett Stripers. Also hoping to get his team back to the postseason is Brady Williams, who took Durham to the finals in his first year with the Bulls in 2019. They will be challenged in the South Division by another returning manager in Norfolk, Gary Kendall. The 2018 IL Manager of the Year, Lehigh Valley’s Gary Jones, will lead the IronPigs once again this season. Like Jones, Brian Esposito in Indianapolis is also at the helm for the third straight campaign. IL Hall of Famer Billy McMillon will manage the Red Sox for the franchise’s final season at McCoy Stadium in Pawtucket. Two men have found themselves moving from a coach’s role to the manager’s chair in 2020. Pennsylvania-native Doug Davis (former Syracuse manager) takes over in Scranton/Wilkes- Barre after three seasons coaching, while in Columbus, Ohio-native Andy Tracy is the new manager after helping lead the Clippers to the 2019 Governors’ Cup title as hitting coach.

  • Lifestyle Communities Eyes Arena District Headquarters
    Nationwide Realty to oversee stadium project Business First of Columbus - March 29, 2006 Franklin County commissioners didn't venture far from the Arena District to select a company to help them build a $65 million minor league baseball park in that neighborhood. The commissioners said Tuesday they are beginning contract negotiations with Nationwide Realty Investors for the company to serve as owners representative for the ballpark project. Nationwide Realty is the developer of the adjacent Arena District, having worked on $616 million in projects there, including Nationwide Arena, home of the National Hockey League's Columbus Blue Jackets. The firm is the development arm of Columbus-based Nationwide. The stadium will be called Huntington Park as part of a $12 million naming rights deal the county signed this year with Huntington Bancshares Inc. (NASDAQ:HBAN). The stadium will be built at the northwest corner of Nationwide Boulevard and Neil Avenue. The commissioners want the stadium, which carries an estimated price tag of $65 million, to open in 2008. Until then, the ballpark's principal tenant, the county-owned Columbus Clippers, will continue to play at Cooper Stadium, also owned by the county. Nationwide Realty was one of eight companies that pursued the owners rep contract. Once on the job, it will supervise construction and be responsible for seeing the project completed on time and within budget. Commissioners said they will seek certain assurances in negotiations with Nationwide, including that the ballpark be accommodating for families and affordable. They also want final responsibilities for cost overruns clearly spelled out. Nationwide Realty will waive its fees for its owners representative services as a contribution to the project, said Michelle Chippas, spokeswoman for the Columbus-based company.
