Lansing Lugnuts Media Guide4

In 1996, Tom Dickson and Sherrie Myers launched their first minor league baseball team, the Lansing Lugnuts, spearheading the development and construction of the team’s home stadium.

During that inaugural season, the Lugnuts set the attendance record for any Class-A team in its first year, drawing over 535,000 fans. The total ranks second in Midwest League history, trailing only the 1996 attendance of the West Michigan Whitecaps.

In large part due to the success of the Lugnuts, Dickson and Myers were named “Entrepreneurs of the Year in the State of Michigan” in 1997.

In 2001, the couple purchased Charleston of the South Atlantic League and worked with government officials to put together financing for a new ballpark. In October 2002, funding for the new $23 million facility was approved.

In 2004, Dickson and Myers purchased the Orlando Rays franchise, moving it to Montgomery, Alabama. The renamed Montgomery Biscuits served as one of the crown jewels of Class-AA and were named MiLB.com’s Double-A Team of the Year in 2006 and 2007.

In addition to Lansing, Charleston and Montgomery, the couple has been responsible for the development of over $150 million worth of new minor league ballparks in markets such as Dayton, Ohio; Joliet, Illinois; Gary, Indiana; and Eastlake, Ohio.

Historical Timeline1889 - In the first year of existence for a pro baseball team in Lansing, William Mumby manages the squad to a 42-56 record and fourth

place in the six-team Michigan State League.1890 - Under Al Manassau, Lansing loses 17 of its first 21 games. The Michigan State League folds in June.1895 - The Lansing Senators post a highly-respectable 56-36 record in the Michigan State League, finishing in second place. The team

features 47-year-old Bud Fowler (born John W. Jackson in Cooperstown, New York), the very first professional African American baseball player. Fowler made his debut in 1878 in the International Association. In 1895, he is the only black baseball player playing professionally anywhere in the country. Fowler will finish his career with a batting average of .308 in 465 career minor league games. The team also features future Senators manager John “Jack” Morrissey, who bats .362. The star of the team, though, is Jack Daley, who bats .397 with 124 runs scored, 143 hits, and 25 home runs.

1897 - After a year’s hiatus, Lansing rejoins the league... only to see the MSL shut down mid-season with the team in second place.1902 - The Senators shut down operations in August and the Michigan State League disbands soon after.1907 - Playing in the Southern Michigan League, the Senators post a 46-57 record behind the leadership of Lansing native Jack Mor-

rissey. It is Morrissey’s first of eight consecutive seasons in charge of the Senators. He had played in the National League with Cincinnati in 1902-03, batting .258 in 41 games.

1908 - Lansing finishes 60-65, but George Pearce notches 298 strikeouts and player/manager Jack Morrissey collects 141 hits.1910 - In Jack Morrissey’s finest season at the helm, Vic Saier (175 hits) and Homer “Slab” Warner (23 wins) lead Lansing to an 87-52

record, tied for first with the Kalamazoo Celery Eaters. The Celery Eaters defeat the Senators in a playoff to capture the title.1911 - Slab Warner sets a league record with 26 wins alongside 231 strikeouts. The Senators finish in second place.1912 - Al “Bull” Durham, playing for Lansing and Bay City, sets a new league record with 25 home runs and Jack Onslow tears up

Southern Michigan League pitching to the tune of a .385 batting average, but the Senators finish only 65-62.1913 - T.H. Nellis collects 146 hits in the Senators’ first season in the Southern Michigan Association.1914 - On July 10th, the 33-35 Senators move to Mount Clemens and become the Bathers, finishing 63-80. The Southern Michigan

Association disbands at season’s end.1921 - Playing in the Central League, the third-place Senators finish 65-63 thanks in large part to 18 wins from star pitcher Lawrence

Reno and a .348 batting average from Charles Miller..1922 - Lansing slips to 60-67, but Les Bell shines with a .329 average. The league shuts down after the season.1940 - Affiliated with the Cardinals as part of Branch Rickey’s farm system, the Lancers are last in the Michigan State League despite

batting .294 as a team. Gerald Burmeister leads the way with a .360 average, 15 home runs and 86 RBI. Dick Sisler, son of Hall of Famer George, bats .322; he would later play eight seasons in the Majors.

1941 - Renamed the Senators and now unaffiliated, Lansing loses 78 of 113 games, Everett Robinson’s .345 average and 95 RBIs going for naught. The team and league both disband at the end of the season.

1996 - Professional baseball returns to Lansing with the Lugnuts, a Class-A Midwest League affilliate of the Kansas City Royals. The franchise that became the Lugnuts was born in Lafayette, IN, in 1955, moving to Waterloo, IA, in 1957, where it would stay for 35 seasons. The franchise was purchased by Tom Dickson and Sherrie Myers in 1995, who moved it to Springfield, Illinois. The next year, it was brought to the capital city of Michigan. The very first game played at brand new Oldsmobile Park is between the University of Michigan and Michigan State University on April 3rd, 1996, won by the Wolverines, 5-4, in 10 innings. On April 5th, the Lugnuts play their first game, drawing 9,318 fans despite temperatures in the 30s to see a 9-5 10-inning loss to the Rockford Cubbies. July 6th, the Colorado Silver Bullets, an all-female pro baseball team, play at Oldsmobile Park. The Silver Bullets, managed by Hall of Famer Phil Niekro, lose to the Madison Stars, 8-1. Over the course of this inaugural season, the Lugnuts set a record for Minor League Baseball attendance, drawing 538,326 fans. Pitcher Blaine Mull sets single-season franchise records with 15 victories and 174.2 innings pitched, though he also allows a franchise-record 186 base hits.

1997 - How could an inaugural season be topped? By hosting the Midwest League All-Star Game and then winning the Midwest League Championship! In the ASG, a league record crowd of 10,060 sees the Lugnuts’ Steve Medrano drill a triple in the bot-tom of the ninth and score the winning run on Jason Conti’s walkoff single, lifting the East to a 6-5 victory. The Lugnuts finish the season with a 69-68 mark, squeaking into the playoffs. In the first round, the Nuts eliminate Michigan, 2 games to 1; in the second round,the Nuts sweep Fort Wayne in two straight games; and in the championship round, the Nuts outlast Kane County in dramatic fashion, 3 games to 2, made even more memorable by a mascot brouhaha between Big Lug and Ozzie the Cougar in Geneva, Illinois. The season also sees Jose Santiago make his debut with the Kansas City Royals on June 7th, making him the first Lugnut to reach the Major Leagues.

1999 - After missing the playoffs in 1998, the Lugnuts enter 1999 with a new affiliation, switching from the Royals to the Cubs. Lansing hosts its second All-Star Game, setting a new ASG attendance record with a crowd of 10,234. The game lasts just two hours, nine minutes, a Western Division one-hit victory, 4-0. The Nuts return to the playoffs behind Prospect of the Year Corey Pat-terson, who hits for the franchise’s first cycle at South Bend on July 5th. In the first round of the postseason, Lansing sweeps away Michigan in two games before having the tables turned on them in a two-game sweep by Wisconsin in the second roun

2000 - Ryan Gripp leads the league with a .333 batting average and 166 hits, adding 20 home runs and 92 RBI while Oscar Montero posts a 0.37 ERA, allowing only one ER in 24.1 innings, but the Lugnuts finish 70-68 and miss the playoffs. On June 13th, Clinton’s Scott Dunn twirls a 7-0 perfect game, the first time the Lugnuts have been no-hit.

2002 - Another All-Star Game and Championship in the same year? Lansing hosts its third All-Star Game and breaks the Midsummer Classic attendance record again with a throng of 10,334, as the East defeats the West, 6-3. Notable All-Stars include Joe Mauer and Edwin Encarnacion. But the Lugnuts fall in the MWLCS to Peoria, 3 games to 1. In the series finale on September 13th, the Chiefs overcome a 10-2 deficit with a run in the 8th and eight in the 9th for a stunning 11-10 win and the title.

2003 - A memorable April 21st: Donnie Hood hits for the cycle and Justin Jones, Westin O’Brien, Mark Carter combine to throw the first no-hitter in franchise history, blanking Dayton, 15-0. The season gets better from there: Keith Butler collects three hits in three at-bats and drives in the game-winning run in the All-Star Game to be named the Star of Stars. The Lugnuts win their second league championship in dominating fashion, sweeping South Bend in two games, Battle Creek in two games, and Beloit in three games. Starters Anderson Tavares, Carlos Vasquez and Andy Sisco lead the way, with lights-out closer Jason Wylie saving a franchise record 29 games to go along with 1.38 ERA.

2004 - Eight different Lugnuts are named to the Midwest League All-Star Team, though one stands above the rest. The Lugnuts’ Brian Dopirak is honored as both the Most Valuable Player and the Prospect of the Year after ripping up Midwest League Pitching for a .307 batting average, 39 home runs, and 120 RBI. Both home run and RBI totals set new franchise records. Chris Walker adds a franchise record 60 stolen bases. Catcher-turned-ace Carlos Marmol posts 14 wins and strikes out 154, though he is over-shadowed by 21-year-old Sean Marshall, who records a startling 1.11 ERA in seven starts, striking out 51 while allowing only 29 hits, six earned runs and four walks in 48.2 innings. The season also sees Mark Prior make a pair of rehab starts on assignment.

Historical Timeline2005 - In the offseason, the Lugnuts switch affiliations from the Cubs to the Toronto Blue Jays, though the change does not result in a

fifth consecutive entrance into the postseason. Still, seven different players earn All-Star Game nods, including highly-regarded pitching prospect Casey Janssen. In seven starts, Janssen notches a 4-0 record with a 1.37 ERA and a 38/4 strikeout/walk ratio. The season’s other highlight sees Chip Cannon hit for the cycle in a 14-13, 13-inning victory against Clinton on June 2nd.

2006 - Joyce’s Lugnuts finish 72-65, making the postseason and eliminating South Bend before losing in the second round to West Michigan. The season features two 17-inning marathons, an April 23rd 4-3 victory over Beloit and a June 3rd 5-3 victory at South Bend. Notably, not one member of the 2006 Lugnuts roster -- numbering 43 total players -- has made the Majors.

2007 - The inaugural Crosstown Showdown is held between Michigan State and Lansing on April 3, won 4-3 by the Lugnuts in nail-biting fashion. The season’s star is Blue Jays 1st round draft pick Travis Snider, who hits for the cycle in reverse order (amidst a 5-for-5 night) in a 9-3 victory at Fort Wayne on July 7. On August 25th, the Nuts welcome Oldsmobile Park’s 5,000,000th fan.

2008 - Behind 28-year-old first-year manager Clayton McCullough and seven MWL All-Stars, the Lugnuts win their first division title since 1999, wrapping up the first-half Eastern Division title.

2009 - On April 16th, a record crowd of 12,992 watches the Crosstown Showdown on April 16. The Spartans squash the Lugnuts, 12-2, for their first win in the series. 18-year-old Henderson Alvarez receives the Opening Day start vs. Fort Wayne. Alvarez further distinguishes himself in defeat on May 24th, losing a 1-0 game to Cedar Rapids in an hour and 46 minutes.

2010 - Oldsmobile Park is renamed Cooley Law School Stadium in the off-season and former MLB catcher Sal Fasano makes his managerial debut. On May 1st, Chris Hopkins’ walk-off single lifts the Nuts to their 1,000th victory, 3-2 over Fort Wayne.

2011 - Steered by Manager of the Year Mike Redmond, the Lugnuts qualify for the playoffs via tiebreaker on the last day of the first half.On September 9th, one out from elimination against powerful Dayton in the 1st round of the playoffs, the Lugs receive a dra-matic two-run game-winning home run from second baseman Matt Nuzzo, starting a string of four consecutive playoff victories vs. Dayton and Fort Wayne. The Lugs are swept in three games by Quad Cities in the Championship Series. The season also included a stretch of 27 consecutive scoreless innings from Drew Hutchison.

2012 - After defeating the Michigan State Spartans, 7-0, before a new Cooley Law School Stadium record crowd of 12,997, the power-house Lugnuts jump out to a team-record 7-0 start behind new manager John Tamargo, Jr., the club’s hitting coach during the previous two seasons. On May 12th, left fielder Kevin Pillar goes 6-for-6 to tie the team and Midwest League record, finishing the historic day with a 9th inning grand slam in a 16-4 rout at Dayton. Two days later, on May 14th, the Lugnuts turned a triple play in a 4-2 victory over the host Dragons. The Lugs went 20-9 in May to tie another team record before finishing the first half with a team-best 47-22 mark, easily topping the Eastern Division. Seven players are named to the midseason Eastern Division All-Star Team, helmed by the Lugnuts coaching staff, which routs the Western Division All-Stars, 18-2, in Kane County. Led by a prospect-laden pitching rotation starring Justin Nicolino, Aaron Sanchez, Noah Syndergaard and Anthony DeSclafani, Lansing finishes the season with a club-best 82-55 record, including a team record 16 shutouts. Closer Ajay Meyer sets a new team record with 33 saves and first baseman K.C. Hobson supplies a team record 43 doubles. At season’s close, Tamargo is named the Midwest League Manager of the Year and Pillar is named MWL Most Valuable Player, with Pillar (outfield), Nicolino (left-handed starter) and Meyer (right-handed reliever) named to the MWL Postseason All-Star Team. The good fortune lasts only as long as the regular season; the Lugnuts are swept in two games by Fort Wayne.

2013 - The Lugnuts gain dubious notice, victimized by no-hitters on three separate occasions and experiencing a 21st century version of Merkle’s Boner when Santiago Nessy neglects to run to second base on Chris Hawkins’ seeming game-winning single on July 1st. The ballclub finishes the season with a 61-78 record, though the season is redeemed by breakout performances from pitchers Daniel Norris and Ben White, shortstop Emilio Guerrero and outfielders Dwight Smith, Jr. (the team MVP) and Dalton Pompey. On June 18th, Pompey serves as the hero of the All-Star Game, averting a potential tie with a game-winning full-count, two-out RBI single in the bottom of the ninth. On August 16th, Guerrero seizes the day with a franchise/league record-tying 6-for-6 performance, including a grand slam, in a 14-5 rout at West Michigan. Norris, though, gains the most attention, thanks to a highlight-making grab against the Whitecaps on a vicious liner toward his face that turns viral on Youtube.

2014 - The Lugnuts feature the talents of third baseman Mitch Nay, a Midseason and Postseason MWL All-Star, assisted by fellow Mid-season All-Stars Derrick Loveless, a breakout star in the outfield; slugging Matt Dean; and closer Griffin Murphy. The team’s ini-tial star, though, is ace right-hander Kendall Graveman, who takes a no-hitter into the ninth at Beloit and allows only one earned run during four April starts. Graveman vaults through the system, jumping through A-Adv. Dunedin, Double-A New Hampshire and Triple-A Buffalo on his way to an MLB debut in September. He is accompanied in making his debut by fellow former Nuts Aaron Sanchez, Dalton Pompey and Daniel Norris. The season is also highlighted by headline-grabbing cameos from 30-year-old knuckleballing Frank Viola III, 19-year-old outfield phenom Anthony Alford (who then leaves to play defensive back on the Ole Miss football team) and 19-year-old pitching phenom Miguel Castro. The Lugs compete until the season’s penultimate day, when they are knocked from playoff contention by a home loss to South Bend, finishing with a 62-77 record.

2015 - Cooley Law School Stadium undergoes a massive renovation in the off-season, including a new 360-degree concourse; perma-nent stadium seating throughout the seating bowl; the all-you-can-eat Pepsi Porch tiered picnic area; three HD video boards - a primary board above the left field wall and ribbon boards along the right field wall and the suite facia; remodeled suites, front offices and clubhouses; the Michigan Baseball Hall of Fame; and The Outfield development, featuring Good Hops and The View. On the field, the Lugnuts met with great early-season success. The team’s hitting coach in 2014, Ken Huckaby moves into the manager’s chair, presiding over the Lugnuts’ first Eastern Division title since 2012. Lansing wins the first half with a 42-28 record, turns a triple play on June 21st, and boasts a prolific offense that led the league in runs (699), total bases (1878), doubles (263), stolen bases (162), slugging percentage (.396) and OPS (.733), and was only shut out once all season. The lineup is loaded with talent: center fielder Anthony Alford, shortstop Richard Ureña, first basemen/designated hitters Rowdy Tellez and Ryan McBroom (who ties the league/franchise records with a 6-for-6 performance on July 12th at Dayton, and collects hits in nine consecutive at-bats to come within one of the league record), outfielder D.J. Davis, catcher Danny Jansen, second baseman Tim Locastro and outfielder Chris Carlson. At midseason, five Lugnuts -- Alford, Ureña, Tellez, McBroom and pitcher Shane Dawson -- are named All-Stars. In early July, Locastro, leading the Midwest League with 30 steals and 21 HBPs, is traded with ace Chase De Jong to the Dodgers, allowing Toronto to sign top international free agent Vladimir Guerrero, Jr. Promising right-hander Jesus Tinoco is later packaged in a deal to the Rockies in exchange for All-Star shortstop Troy Tulowitzki. On August 6, the 10-member inaugural class of the Michigan Baseball Hall of Fame is inducted in a special ceremony at The View. Several weeks later, McBroom is voted the 2015 Midwest League Most Valuable Player and named to the Post Season All-Star Team at both First Base and Designated Hitter. The end of the season is spiced by the September 2nd rehab appearance of Blue Jays’ standout Marcus Stroman, who works 4 2/3 hitless and scoreless innings, striking out seven Great Lakes Loons. The Lugnuts finish the season 73-66, sweeping the Great Lakes Loons in two games, and then falling in three games in the Eastern Division Finals to the West Michigan Whitecaps.

Historical Timeline2016 - Steered by first-year manager John Schneider, the Lugnuts experience a season with a seven-minute skunk delay (in Dayton

on August 22nd) and the second no-hitter in franchise history... in a losing cause (Game 2 of a doubleheader at Peoria on July 14th). More importantly, it is a year packed with talent: 2014 1st-rounder Max Pentecost, 2015 1st-rounder Jon Harris and 2016 1st-rounder T.J. Zeuch headline a prospect-laden roster, with a starting rotation filled out with dominating performances from Sean Reid-Foley, Francisco Rios, Ryan Borucki, Jordan Romano, Justin Maese, and Mid Season / Post Season All-Star Angel Perdomo, who leads the league with 156 strikeouts in just 127 innings. The season concludes with the first autumn edition of the Crosstown Showdown presented by Auto-Owners Insurance. A crowd of 8,432 on September 6th beholds an electric pregame Home Run Derby won by slugger Connor Panas, overpowering debuting teenagers Vladimir Guerrero, Jr. and Bo Bichette in the first round before outhomering MSU’s Dan Durkin 14-10 in the final, followed by a 4-1 Lugnuts triumph. To cap off the year, Lugnuts GM Nick Grueser was named the Midwest League Executive of the Year.

2017 - First-year manager Cesar Martín’s Lugnuts are headlined by two special second-generation talents, shortstop/second baseman Bo Bichette and third baseman Vladimir Guerrero, Jr. Both are voted Midwest League Mid Season and Post Season All-Stars and represent the Blue Jays at the MLB Futures Game. The 19-year-old Bichette bats a league-leading .384 with 109 hits (in-cluding 32 doubles) in just 70 games, earning the double honor of Midwest League Most Valuable Player and Prospect of the Year. The 18-year-old Guerrero receives national media coverage and is named Baseball America’s No. 2 prospect in baseball. Unheralded Edward Olivares enjoys the most notable game of the season, hitting for the cycle on April 24th vs. the South Bend Cubs. On May 18th, the Lugnuts win their 1500th game as a franchise, a 5-1 victory over the Cubs in South Bend. Another run-ning theme: hit-by-pitches. The Lugnuts set the Midwest League single game record on May 3rd by getting plunked six times by Peoria pitchers. On August 20th, Solar Eclipse Day, outfielder Nick Sinay sets a new Midwest League single season record with 38 HBPs. The two largest crowds of the year: 11,449 on the 4th of July, and 10,232 on Harry Potter Night. The Lugnuts finished with a 63-73 record, missing the playoffs, ending the baseball year with a 5-1 defeat of the Michigan State Spartans in the 11th Annual Crosstown Showdown presented by Auto-Owners Insurance on September 5th. The pregame HR Derby is won by MSU freshman Adam Proctor, topping teammate Marty Bechina in a swing-off before besting the Nuts’ David Jacob in the final.

2018 - Cesar Martín returned for a second season in Lansing, and a cohesive clubhouse led by outfielder Chavez Young and first base-man/outfielder Ryan Noda qualifies for the MWL postseason with a 43-27 first half record and finished with an 80-60 record, the second most wins in a season in franchise history, tying for the most road wins (39) in franchise history. The Nuts score an MWL-leading 720 runs and steal an MiLB-leading 203 bases behind 44 steals apiece from Chavez Young and Samad Taylor. Noda himself tops MiLB with a franchise record-breaking 109 walks. The earliest stars of the year are promoted quickly: Open-ing Day starter Yennsy Diaz is named MWL April Player of the Month after posting a 0.31 ERA (1 ER in 26.2 IP) and .063 avg against (6-for-95), and shortstop/third baseman Kevin Smith dominates to the tune of a .355/407/.639 slash line in 46 games. On May 22nd, reliever Kyle Weatherly commits three balks in the 7th inning at South Bend. On June 19th, the Lugnuts host their fourth Midwest League All-Star Game; Bowling Green catcher Ronaldo Hernandez wins the pregame Home Run Derby and Dayton first baseman Montrell Marshall takes MVP honors with a two-out walk-off RBI single in the 10th inning, lifting the Eastern Division to a 3-2 win before a crowd of 9,396, the second largest crowd of the year (11,302 on the 4th of July). On August 26th, a day after hitting an inside-the-park home run, Brandon Grudzielanek swats a massive three-run homer off the dragon’s claw to the top left of the Fifth Third Field videoboard in Dayton. The 12th annual Crosstown Showdown presented by Auto-Owners Insurance is held the day before the postseason, September 4th: MSU’s Adam Proctor defends his home run derby title through two playoff swing-offs against teammates Zaid Walker and Andrew Morrow, and then walks off to beat Lugnuts outfielder Freddy Rodriguez, 7-6, in the final. The Lugnuts win the game, 6-4, with starter Nate Pearson touching 102 mph while striking out four Spartans in two scoreless innings. The postseason ends in a two-game sweep against the eventual champion Bowling Green Hot Rods. Lastly, Head Groundskeeper Zach Severns was named the 2018 Midwest League Sports Turf Manager of the Year.

The game has produced the three largest crowds in Cooley Law School Stadium history.

Quick stats: Lugnuts lead, 10-2. Total Attendance: 101,735 (8,478 average)

• In the inaugural showdown in 2007, Michigan State mounted a ninth-inning rally that put the potential game-tying run on base, only to see Julio Pinto whiff Kyle Hurtt to preserve a 4-3 win.

• In 2008, the game was shortened to seven innings. A run-scoring error and a wild pitch in the sixth opened the door for the Lugs to escape, 4-2.

• In 2009, MSU picked up its first win, battering starter Scott Gracey for seven runs and cruising to a 12-2 rout in front of a record crowd of 12,992.

• In 2010, the Showdown was scheduled to be played on April 7th, but was postponeddue to rain. 19 days later, the Nuts exploded for five in the fifth en route to a 5-4 victory.

• In 2011, the Spartans tallied in the first and fourth innings and held off the Lugnuts late in a slim 2-1 victory.

• In 2012, the Lugs broke a tie with seven runs in the seventh, triumphing 7-0 before 12,997 fans and BTN.• In 2013, Dwight Smith, Jr. went 4-for-4 with a single, double, triple and walk, as the Lugnuts routed the Spartans, 10-2, in a seven-inning game.• In 2014, Michigan State committed three errors, leading to two crucial unearned runs, in a 3-2 Lugnuts victory.• In 2015, the Spartans’ first four batters hit for the cycle, but the Lugnuts rallied back for a decisive 9-4 rout.• In 2016, the game was postponed to September 6th because of poor April weather. The day opened with a HR Derby, won by Lansing’s

Connor Panas over MSU’s Dan Durkin, 14-10. Christian Williams then slugged a two-run homer and the Lugnuts cruised to a 4-1 win before a crowd of 8,432.

• In 2017, MSU freshman Adam Proctor won the pregame HR Derby over the Lugnuts’ David Jacob, but Jacob’s Lugnuts won the game, 5-1, with five unanswered runs, backed by the pitching of Yennsy Diaz, Emerson Jimenez and Maverik Buffo.

• In 2018, Adam Proctor defended his HR Derby title, outlasting teammates Andrew Morrow and Zaid Walker in a second playoff swing-off before walking off the Nuts’ Freddy Rodriguez in the final, 7-6. Then top prospect Nate Pearson fired two scoreless innings, touching 102 mph, and striking out four straight Spartans, as the Lugnuts beat MSU for the seventh straight year, 6-4.

Notable: Outfielder Eli Boike is the only player to suit up for both teams. He took part in CTSDs in 2007-09 with MSU, then signed with Toronto as a free agent and made his Nuts debut in 2011, though he never played with Lansing in a CTSD.

Lansing Lugnuts Media Guide55

All-Star Selection - The Midwest League All-Stars are selected by the Midwest League’s field managers. They may not vote for their own players.

Consecutive Hitting Streak - A consecutive hitting streak shall not be terminated if a batter’s plate appearance results in a walk, hit-by-pitch, defensive interference or a sacrifice bunt. A sacrifice fly shall terminate the streak.

Consecutive Playing Streak - A consecutive playing streak shall be extended if the player plays one-half inning on defense, or if he completes a time at bat by reaching base or being put out. A pinch-running appearance only shall not extend the streak. If a player is ejected from a game by an umpire before complying with these requirements, his streak shall continue.

Designated Hitter Rule - A hitter may be designated to bat for the pitcher in any spot in the batting order in any game without affecting the status of the pitcher. The designated hitter must be selected and be included in the lineup card presented to the umpire-in-chief prior to the game. Failure to do so precludes the use of the designated hitter for that game. The designated hitter may be removed for a pinch-hitter or pinch-runner who in turn becomes the designated hitter. The replacement player may stay in the game defensively, but the pitcher must take the place in the batting order of the replaced defensive player.

Disabled List Length - A player placed on the DL must sit out seven days. Day one is the first day after the player’s last game played.

Doctored Bat - If a filled or “doctored” bat is used, the player is to be called out, ejected and subject to additional penalties. A ball hit by an illegal bat does not count. If an umpire sees an illegal bat before it is used, he issues a warning, but there is no penalty.

Earned Runs Rule - A run for which the pitcher is held accountable. In determining earned runs, the inning should be reconstructed without errors and passed balls. The benefit of the doubt is always given to the pitcher in determining bases reached.

League Leader - To qualify for the league batting championships, a player must have a minimum of 378 plate appearances. To qualify for the ERA title, a pitcher must have a least 112 innings pitched.

Magic Number - Add one to the number of games remaining, then subtract the games ahead in the loss column of closest opponent.

Night Game - Any game scheduled to start at 5:01 p.m. or later will be considered a night game. If a game is scheduled to start before 5:00 p.m. and is delayed for any reason, it shall still be considered a day game.

Interference - Offensive interference is an act by the team at bat which interferes with, obstructs, impedes, hinders or confuses any fielder attempting to make a play. If the umpire declares the batter, batter-runner or a runner out for interferences, all other runners shall return to the base last occupied at the time of the pitch.

Obstruction - Obstruction is the act of a fielder who, while not in possession of the ball and not in the act of fielding the ball, impedes the progress of any runner. Contact between the runner and fielder is not necessary to meet the definition. If a runner must slow down or alter his path to avoid a fielder who is not in possession of the ball or in the act of fielding, he has been obstructed. The umpire will award the runner the base to which the umpire believes he would have reached had he not been obstructed.

Pinch Hitter Rule - A player shall be considered a pinch hitter only if he enters the game as a substitute batter, and then only on his first time at bat, which must be before he becomes a fielder. If the team bats around and a pinch-hitter comes up a second time in the inning in which he first appeared, he will not be considered a pinch hitter during that second time up. A substitute hitter for a designated hitter is both a pinch hitter and a designated hitter in his first time at bat. On subsequent trips, he is a designated hitter only.

Player Eligibility - There are no age restrictions on player eligibility in the Midwest League. However, no more than two players on a team’s active list may have five or more years of prior service. A player shall be credited with one year of minor league service for each season he was active or on the Disabled List of a minor league club for at least 30 days.

Playoff Tie-Breakers - Ties involving two teams: 1) best record in head-to-head meetings; 2) best run differential in head-to-head meetings; 3) winner of final meeting of the season between the clubs. Ties involving more than two teams: 1) best winning percent-age in games involving tied teams for the full season; 2) best run differential in games involving tied teams for the full season; 3) best winning percentage in second half games only in games involving tied teams; 4) best run differential in second half games only in games involving tied teams.

Qualifying Marks - To qualify for the league batting championship, a player must have a minimum of 378 plate appearances. To qualify for the ERA title, a pitcher must have at least 112 innings pitched.

Saves Rule - One save per game may be credited. Credit a pitcher with a save when he meets all three of the following criteria:1. He is the finishing pitcher in a game won by his club; and2. He is not the winning pitcher; and3. He qualifies under one of the following conditions: a. He enters the game with a lead of no more than three runs and pitches for at least one inning; or b. He enters the game with the potential tying run either on base, at bat, or on deck; or c. He pitches effectively for at least three innings.

A “blown save” occurs when a pitcher who has entered a game in a save situation departs with the save situation no longer in effect because he has given up the lead. If the save situation still exists when he leaves the game, he is not charged with a save opportunity. If he has not given up the lead when he departs, even though the save situation may no longer exist, he is not charged with a save opportunity.

Jackson Field Ground Rules

1. Dugout Railings (Green Padded and Gray Metal): If a thrown ball bounces off a dugout railing and lands in the playing surface, it remains in play. If a ball hits a dugout railing and goes into a dugout, it is considered dead.

2. Railings along first and third base lines: If a batted or thrown ball bounces off a railing and stays in the playing surface, it remains in play. If a ball bounces over a railing and into the stands, it is considered dead.

3. Tarp: If a thrown or batted ball bounces off the tarp, it remains in play. If the ball lodges in the tarp, it is considered dead.

4. Bullpens: A batted or thrown ball that goes into either bullpen remains in play.

5. Outfield Wall: A batted ball must clear the painted yellow line to be considered a home run. A ball that bounces off the yellow line and over the wall is a home run; a ball that bounces off the line and back onto the playing surface remains in play.

Suspended Game Rule 4.11d (Official Baseball Rules) - A called game ends at the moment the umpire terminates play. EXCEPTION: If the game is called while an inning is in progress and before it is completed, the game becomes a SUSPENDED game in each of the following situations:

1. The visiting club has scored one or more runs to tie the score and the home team has not scored;2. The visiting team has scored one or more runs to take the lead and the home team has not tied the score or retaken the lead;3. The game is not yet a regulation game (4.5 innings with the hosts ahead, or five innings with the visiting club ahead or tied);4. Any regulation game tied at the point play is stopped because of weather, curfew, or any other reason;5. If a game is suspended before it becomes a regulation game, and is continued prior to another regularly scheduled game, the regularly scheduled game will be a seven-inning game.6. If a game is suspended after it is a regulation game, and is continued prior to another regularly scheduled game, the regularly scheduled game will be a nine-inning game.

EXCEPTION: The Suspended Rule will not apply to the last scheduled game between the two teams during the League Playoffs.

Winning and Losing Pitcher - The winning pitcher is the pitcher who is in the game when his team assumes a lead that it does not re-linquish. The starting pitcher must complete five full innings to be eligible to earn the win. If the starting pitcher does not complete at least five full innings, and his team holds the lead at the team he is removed from the game and maintains the lead over the remainder of the game, then the official scorer shall award the win to the relief pitcher judged to have been most effective. The losing pitcher is the pitcher who is charged with the run that gives the winning team a lead that it does not relinquish. Whenever the score is tied, the game becomes a new contest insofar as the winning and losing pitcher is concerned.
