More then anyone I can think of she deserves this honor

That is quite an incentive. RD: What is your vision of the fan experience for people attending one of your gamesTH: My vision of the fan experience is to provide an inexpensive family-oriented entertainment opportunity for everyone who comes to Doubleday field for one of our games My family and I went to two major league games last year. We spent about $400 for the first game and almost $500 for the second one. We are especially concerned that all kids should have an opportunity to watch high quality organized baseball. We will keep out prices at a level that will always allow children to attend these games, and if they still can't afford it they will be admitted for free. RD: Who will be throwing out the first pitch in your inaugural game and why did you choose that personTH: That's an easy one.

We will ask Jane Forbes Clark, the Board Chair of the National Baseball Hall of Fame, to throw out the first ball during our inaugural game Ms. Clark has done wonderful things for the game of baseball as well as the Village of Cooperstown. More then anyone I can think of, she deserves this honor. RD: Playing your games in Cooperstown should provide a lot of surprise guests for fans to see at the games. You never know which former/current player will show up in town without notice, do you plan on formally scheduling any legends to attend gamesTH: We do intend to invite active players as well as Hall of Fame legends to attend our games. Several weeks ago, I spoke with Brooks Robinson about it and he was very excited about our team.

He also indicated that he would be happy to attend a game and throw out a first ball. I will also ask the President of the National Baseball Hall of Fame, Jeff Idelson, as well as a number of former baseball greats, to be our guests and throw out first balls. It will be a fun year.RD: I will certainly be attending the inaugural game this year and would love to buy a team jersey. How can our readers find out more information about getting tickets to the games and buying team merchandiseTH : Thanks for the support This has been a whirlwind effort We are in the process of developing the uniform designs. Team merchandise and ticket information will be available on our website shortly. RD: I would like to end this interview on a more personal note, who is your favorite all time player and how has the game of baseball inspired you in your life TH: My favorite player of all time is the "Iron Horse," Lou Gehrig. His career and personal courage are an inspiration for all of us.
