Greenville Drive Baseball

[GE Turbine Man]

Actually, there will be some Greenville drive history on display. I think it was at the press confrence that they said they were going to display ex-drive players in the concourse and how they are proceeding in the minor league system and into the majors. Similar to how the Durham bulls have the Bulls walk of fame around the stadium (Chipper Jones etc...)

^^^Those plaques along with others are going to be incorporated into the entrances and along the main concourse at West End Field for the 2007 season along with the rest of the improvements and renovations

-I'm not saying it will include the exact plaques you're talking about, but it will include plaques and signs showing Greenville's baseball history.

Ok, whatever you say

[g-man430]

^^^Instead of saying "those plaques," I should of just said "plaques."

[RestedTraveler]

Still, if the old plaques from Muni are available, they would be great to include at West End Field as a nod to the past. Excellent idea!

G-man, have you heard anything about the internship you applied for with the Drive?

Awesome! Hope you get to network with some of the Drive folks while you are there. Don't forget to take a few copies of your resume.

Please keep us posted...

^^^Sure thing. I know somebody that works there, so that should help me out.

I was told that individual game tickets go on sale for season ticket holders on March 10th... for the general public on March 15th. I'm about 90% sure on the dates. My memory is subpar.

Looks like the Drive has some great marketing coming up in advance of the home opener. A link to their website concerning The Drive / Coca-Cola Caravan Tour that will make multiple stops around the metro on various days. Great to see this kind of marketing in advance of the season opener!

If you haven't seen these already, go to www.youtube.com and seach "Greenville Drive Supermarket Baseball," "The Drive Chatter Guy Misses Baseball" and "Your Children Miss Baseball." Really, really funny stuff! Chatter Guy cracks me up every time.

Those are awesome!

[GE Turbine Man]

They really do have a great marketing team working behind them. I am assuming these will make it to local TV pretty soon.

[g-man430]

Hey, congrats! I'm sure you'll love it.

[GE Turbine Man]

Good for you! what are you going to being doing for the drive this year?

[NYTransplant]

I got the job.

Way to go g-man, I'll ask too, what are you doing for the Drive?

[g-man430]

Not quite sure yet. It will be a starting position like either ticket taker, program attendant, parking, or ticket sales. I have meeting to go to next week where i'll find out for sure. Later in the season i'm going to try and get promoted to guest relations.

Congrats G-man! My only experience in baseball was an usher for the G-Braves in '89.

Same for me too. I'll probably be going the 13th, but not totally sure yet.
