SCL Eliminates All-Star Game
August 20, 2007 - South Coast League (SCL) News Release
CONYERS, GA - The South Coast League of Professional Baseball has announced the cancellation of the 2007 All-Star Game. Previously scheduled for Wednesday, September 5th, in Aiken, SC, the inaugural SCL season will now conclude after the three game Championship Series for the Ferro Cup.
The League issued the following statement about the announcement:
It is unfortunate for the fans of the South Coast League to lose an opportunity like the All-Star Game. In retrospect, placing the event at the conclusion of the season was a poor decision. The event has not garnered the attention from fans, sponsors, and scouting personnel that we had originally anticipated. We want to reassure our fans that this decision was made to better the future of the South Coast League and we are poised to make 2008 a season to remember.
The SCL will still announce a 15 man All-Star team, along with numerous other post season awards at season's end.
