“I am emailing you tonight just as soon as I got home because I wanted to THANK YOU for a job well done!
  You have NAILED IT! And I dare say you are better than Disneyland. You are more affordable. And I don’t
ever recall hearing anything about Disney coordinating the contribution of funds from community entities
 to charities: buying a game worn jersey = 50% of the profits go to ALS research, a stolen base generates
     another charitable donation, and so on.   As the mother of two now grown sons, I was astounded to
    see seven, eight, and even 14-year-old boys responding with genuine excitement and confidence to
   the seventh inning stretch dancers by JOINING IN THE DANCING! Kudos to you for putting the bat boys
   out there as well as the cheer girls to lead the dance! All of the activities you have put in a game night
    occupy absolutely everyone: the youngsters who got to make their proudly worn headbands for their
 favorite team, the giveaways (I scored a JJ bobble head), the special selections of random rows for more
   giveaways, the Beer Batter of the night so we’ll watch if he gets a hit and we get a discount, the movie
 night, the fireworks I’ve heard about, letting the kids run the bases afterwards and give high-fives to the
            team mascots ... it all adds up to the greatest thing I’ve seen in baseball in decades.”

                                                      It was a truly outstanding fourth season, and
                                                      perhaps nothing was more exciting than seeing
                                                      our first USPBL alum make it to the Majors, when
                                                      former Utica Unicorns pitcher Randy Dobnak was
                                                      called up in August by the Minnesota Twins! Randy
                                                      made his debut with the Twins on August 9, 2019,
                                                      pitching 4 scoreless innings in relief. He remained
                                                      with the club through the rest of the 2019 season,
                                                      posting a 1.59 Earned Run Average with
                                                      23 Strikeouts, and he even started Game 2 of the
                                                      American League Divisional Series against the
                                                      New York Yankees. Randy is the first of what we
                                                      expect to be many USPBL players who will achieve
                                                      their ultimate goal of making it to the Big Show, as
                                                      the vision of the USPBL as a developmental league
                                                      for MLB continues to take root.

                                                      With the promotion of Randy Dobnak to the

RANDY DOBNAK DOMINATES
                                It was a watershed moment for the USPBL when former Utica Unicorns
                        pitcher Randy Dobnak was called up to the Minnesota Twins and made his first
                       appearance on August 9, 2019, becoming the first USPBL alum to make it to the
                    Majors! Dobnak was undrafted in 2017 out of Alderson Broaddus University in West
                     Virginia when he was signed by the USPBL to play for the Utica Unicorns. He was
                    signed by the Minnesota Twins in August of 2017 based on the recommendation of
                    USPBL Director of Baseball Operations Justin Orenduff, and Dobnak proceeded to
                          make his way all the way up through the Twins Organization in just two years!

                                                                            “It’s been an unbelieveable

                             					                                 today. I’m speechless and thankful
                              for the opportunity the USPBL has given me to jump start my career.
                                It’s unbelieveable. It’s great to go back and see where it all started.
                                I can’t give enough thanks to the USPBL and Jim Essian (Unicorns
                                Manager) for getting me into the league. Without them I don’t know
                                        what I would be doing right now. It’s been an incredible ride.
                                                                        Don’t give up on your dream.”

                 My wife was able last minute to schedule a party. Your staff was amazing and made
                                 my son’s birthday easy and the best birthday ever.”
