Episode 8: The Park

Note: This episode contains strong language.

There are 203 ballparks currently being used by affiliated, professional baseball teams in the United States: 30 in the Major Leagues, 23 spring training facilities used by the big league clubs and their Rookie League affiliates, and 150 Minor League stadiums spread over six levels of baseball.

The last three of those 203 parks opened this season: The Ballpark of the Palm Beaches, the new spring training facility for the Houston Astros and the Washington Nationals; SunTrust Park in Atlanta, where the Braves play.

And the newest stadium in all of baseball: Dunkin' Donuts Park, at the corner of Main and Trumbull Streets in Hartford, ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø.

Jonathan is a producer for ‘The Colin McEnroe Show.’ His work has been heard nationally on NPR and locally on ºÚÁϳԹÏ꿉۪s talk shows and news magazines. He’s as likely to host a podcast on minor league baseball as he is to cover a presidential debate almost by accident. Jonathan can be reached at jmcnicol@ctpublic.org.

Federal funding is gone.

Congress has eliminated all funding for public media.

That means $2.1 million per year that ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø relied on to deliver you news, information, and entertainment programs you enjoyed is gone.

The future of public media is in your hands.
