BG Players Hit The 'Free Agent Market'
If no 2020 baseball season in high school or college was not bad enough, the situation has gotten worse … at least at Bowling Green State University.
Last Friday the Mid-American Conference school eliminated the sport of baseball effective immediately.
The financial move by BG leaves so many in limbo, disappointed and upset with a decision to bring an end to the sport of baseball, which in 1915 established the first school-sponsored athletic team at the northwest Ohio campus.
But a little more than a century later, a decision has been made to terminate a program that has produced 49 Major League Baseball draft selections.
Many former, current and future players were hoping to follow the steps of players like Bowling Green graduates Orel Hershiser, Doug Bair, Andy Tracy, Burke Badenhop, Roger McDowell and Nolan Reimold in working their way up the ranks of professional baseball to the big leagues.

Should they stay at Bowling Green as a student only, all but ending their days as a baseball player? Or should they move on to another college to keep their baseball dreams alive?
