Minor League Baseball has given its approval for the Oneonta (N.Y.) Tigers to relocate to Norwich for the 2010 season, Connecticut Tigers General Manager Andrew Weber said Friday.
The Tigers announced their plan to move at a City Hall press conference in January. At the time, it was expected to take less than 30 days to be finalized.
Connecticut joins the short-season Single-A New York-Penn League six months after losing the Double-A Connecticut Defenders of the Eastern League to Richmond, Va.
Joe--what was the holdup? Someone down in the islands on vacation?
ReplyDeleteHere's hoping they keep the same game times as the last couple of seasons. I also hope they apply for the 2010 NYPL All-Star Game which would anniversary the last true Double A All-Star Game in 2002 played at Dood by 10 years and the (in)famous fog out Eastern League All-Star Game in 2007 by five years.
about time, welcome back baseball!
