Erie, PA – The Erie SeaWolves, Double-A affiliate of the Detroit Tigers, have been selected as the Eastern League finalist for the MiLB Together Award. The award recognizes a Minor League Baseball team that demonstrates an outstanding, ongoing commitment to charitable service, support, and leadership within both their local community and within the baseball industry.

“The SeaWolves are honored to be a finalist for the MiLB Together Award,” SeaWolves President Greg Coleman said. “Minor League Baseball teams do so much impactful work in their communities. Representing the Eastern League is a privilege for our entire organization. This recognition speaks to the work of our staff, the commitment of our partners, and the support of SeaWolves fans.”
