Florence Freedom

I'm interviewing for an internship there on Monday and would like to learn a little about them from what you fellow RedZoners know.

What are they? Are they affiliated with any MLB teams or just a different division of baseball? Any fun facts?

Thanks if you can help!

They're not affiliated with anyone in the MLB, but they are considered a professional team. They play in the Frontier League, which is an independent league.

I'll let Wikipedia handle the rest: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florence_Freedom

Good luck, study up, and dazzle them with your newfound knowledge!

Re: Florence Freedom

Florence Freedom games are pretty awesome if you have children. Probably a fun place to work considering the place is like a playground and bar that just happens to have a baseball game being played in it. Ive had fun the times I have went.
