Subject: Re: Can the owners of Baseball Heaven please SELL IT
You know what they are doing out there now right? If an age group in a baseball heaven tournament has less than 16 teams entered they have scrapped all playoff semifinals. Bracket winner vs. Bracket winner. You do not see this anywhere else. They do not maintain the scoreboards even for most championship games. They seem interested in getting paid only. The Trophies are old and the same year after year and it seems like they just do not care about the customer. After seeing how it SHOULD be done with this type of facility out at Ripken Myrtle beach this past week baseball heaven seems like the minor leagues of youth baseball facilities. At Ripken for EVERY game the scoreboard is maintained and players are announced for each plate appearance. At the end of the inning you get..."For the Tides...no hits no runs, no errors and at the end of 3 and a half....Tides 2 and ____0". I spoke to the assistant manager out at Ripken about this...They are building another big field and another little league field right now that will be open for 2009....They have also just purchased 50 more acres behind there wonderful facility with plans to expand to 7 more fields within the next 3 years...The manager said Cal and Bill Ripken may be interested in purchasing baseball heaven...and why not? This would essentially give them control of all of the top youth baseball facilities on the east coast. They should control them all...they run it the right way....like baseball people. Oh and did I mention that all of there tournaments have a consolation bracket as well? And a Quarterfinal round? Cmon baseball heaven...put the place up for sale so baseball people can buy it. Scrub the Elephants and decorate the place with the Ripken Logo.
