Chairman Michael R. Frey released the following statement
at the conclusion of tonight's Authority meeting, held
at the Center for Innovative Technology in Herndon:
"Since 1996, the Virginia Baseball
Stadium Authority and the Virginia Baseball Club have
worked together to convince Major League Baseball to
locate a team in Northern Virginia. Today, we take great
pride in the progress we have make in this effort. Commissioner
Selig's recent statement that the region is the "prime
candidate" for a relocated team, and the subsequent
statement by the Commissioner's executive vice president
that relocation is "inevitable," give us great
hope that a team relocation could occur as soon as next
season.
