Another Honor for the Columbus Clippers

COLUMBUS ‐‐ The Governors' Cup Champion Columbus Clippers have just been named "THE #1 GAME DAY EXPERIENCE in Minor League Baseball" in 2015 by the financial technology company SmartAsset. They also rated Columbus as the sixth best minor league baseball city of 2015.

"If you've never been to a Minor League Baseball game before, Columbus would be a great place to start. The Clippers averaged nearly 9,000 fans at every game in 2015, filling their stadium to 89% capacity. After visiting every stadium in MiLB, StadiumJourney.com ranked Huntington Park as the sixth best (out of 160).

"They also notched 83 wins to just 61 losses during the 2015 regular season, among the best records in Minor League Baseball. Those are all reasons why Columbus had the top rated game day experience in 2015, scoring a perfect 100 for that measure." said SmartAssert.

Ken Schnacke, the Clippers President & General Manager: "We are proud and humbled to once again have Huntington Park acknowledged as one of the greatest ballparks in Minor League Baseball, playing in one of the greatest cities in our country. To receive a perfect ranking in the "ballpark experience" that fans enjoy when they visit this beautiful facility is a tribute to our hard-working staff and all the thought and creativity they put into each game. We are thrilled to be honored with this acknowledgement from SmartAsset.
