  • International League Playing Field Letter
    July 7, 2009 SENT VIA FEDERAL EXPRESS THIS DATE Kristen Rose, President Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees 235 Montage Mountain Road Moosic, PA 18507 Dear Kristen, Even though most of the thoughts contained within this letter relative to the current issues with the playing surface at PNC Field have been expressed to you during our telephone conversations of the past several days, I feel it important to formally convey these in the form of this letter. To begin with, I acknowledge that northeastern Pennsylvania has had much more rain in recent weeks than is customary. I also acknowledge that significant efforts have been made by the club to make the field playable during this period. This having been said, the situation we are now in due to the condition of the playing surface at PNC Field is unacceptable. To be canceling games on a field where rain has not fallen in 48 hours is not an acceptable practice within professional baseball. What we are now experiencing leaves no doubt that the drainage system at PNC Field is sub-standard for play at not only the Triple-A level, but at any level of professional baseball. All of us in Minor League Baseball have worked long and hard over the years to shed the “bush league” connotation, but the events of recent days are not only embarrassing to the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre club, the New York Yankees’ organization and the International League, it is a return to the bush leagues and that is not where we want to be. Let me make it clear that my issues are not so much with the field during or even immediately after a rain, but are with what is obviously a lack of the field’s ability to recover in a reasonable time.
