Baseball coming back to Hannibal

June 3, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

After several decades without a professional baseball team in the area, the city of Hannibal will begin a new era of baseball on Thursday June 4th, when the Cavemen start the 2009 season at Clarence Field.

Led by an ownership group with several years of baseball and major league experience, the Cavemen get their start literally from the ground up.  Their field needed repairs and updates which have all been completed, including the installation of lights and changes to the terrain to help against spring flooding.

Each owner of the team has been responsible for their area of expertise whether it’s been marketing, concessions, ticket sales or day to day baseball operations.  The man in charge of the baseball operations is General Manager Mark Sanders.

He’s talked with me about the major undertaking of getting the team started and how everyone has contributed to what Sanders hopes is a successful start to the Cavemen’s first season.

If you live in the Hannibal area, or even if you’re a hour or two away, plan a visit to Hannibal for the day and make sure you take in a ballgame.  Click here for ticket information.
