The East- West Classic in Cooperstown was held on Saturday at the Baseball Hall of Fame, as a tribute to the Negro League and the League's All-Star game.
Jason Smorol has been on the job at Syracuse's NBT Bank Stadium for nearly a decade.
For a generation of baseball fans in Central New York, Smorol is the game's chief cheerleader at the ballpark on Hiawatha Boulevard. At the helm of Triple-A play since the conclusion of the 2013 International League season, there's no separating Smorol from the thrills that is taking place on the city's Northside today.
