COOLRAY FIELD

2014 GWINNETT BRAVES MEDIA GUIDE GWINNETTBRAVES.COM 3

HOME OF THE GWINNETT BRAVES SINCE 2009Originally known as Gwinnett Stadium, Coolray Field has been the home of the Gwinnett Braves since the start of the 2009 season. The state-of-the-art facility was completed in a mere nine months following its groundbreaking ceremony in June 2008. The G-Braves welcomed a sellout crowd of 10,427 for the first game in the stadium’s history, April 17, 2009 vs. the Norfolk Tides.

Renamed “Coolray Field” thanks to a partnership with Coolray Heating and Cooling in 2010, the ballpark is known for combining the amenities of a Major League stadium alongside the family-friendly conveniences and up-close action of a Minor League stadium. The Home Plate Club and 18 Luxury Suites offer a first-class experience each and every night, while chairback seating complete with cupholders throughout the stadium ensures that every seat is truly the best in the house. A 30-foot-by-40-foot video board in right-center field and a 6-foot-by-42-foot LED board along the left-field wall keep fans informed and entertained throughout the game. Coolray Field can also entertain large groups in the First Base Party Deck, First Base Picnic Area, Third Base Party Deck, Team of the Night Picnic Zone and Left Field Picnic Area.

The 2015 season saw the completion of The Views, a luxury apartment complex located just beyond the right field fence. One and two-bedroom apartments with balconies overlooking the ballpark now add a “live, work, play” dynamic to Coolray Field. For more information, visit www.liveatcoolray.com.

COOLRAY FIELDTM

THE MAGNOLIA TREE

Coolray Field features a unique homage to the history of Minor League Baseball in Atlanta. A Magnolia Tree (pictured above), planted prior to the park’s opening in 2009, stands next to the center field concession stand behind the batter’s eye. The tree continues a tradition started by the Atlanta Crackers - Atlanta’s first professional baseball team - in 1924. The team’s home, Spiller Field (later renamed Ponce de Leon Park) was constructed around a Magnolia Tree that remained in the outfield. The tree stood in playable ground (balls landing in the tree remained in play) until the outfield wall was moved in roughly 50 feet in 1947.

RECORD ATTENDANCE SET AT 2012 FUTURE STARS GAME

For the first time ever, Coolray Field hosted the Atlanta Braves Major League club in an exhibition game on April 3, 2012. The “Braves All-Stars vs. Future Stars Game” showcased manager Fredi Gonzalez’s big league club against a group of organizational stars headed by Hall of Fame manager Bobby Cox. A rain-shortened eight-inning game saw the Braves clip the prospects, 4-3 in front of a Coolray Field record crowd of 10,568. Among the highlights of the game were a towering solo home run by Dan Uggla and a game-winning pinch-hit RBI double by Brian McCann.

GWINNETT BRAVES MASCOT - CHOPPER THE GROUNDHOG

This 6’2” groundhog is proud to be the mascot of the Gwinnett Braves. Catch him leading the Tomahawk Chop and cheering with fans throughout Coolray Field all season long. When he’s not at the games, Chopper can be found at public events all over Gwinnett County and beyond. For more information on Chopper, including how you can register your child for Chopper’s Kids Club, visit gwinnettbraves.com.

STANDINGS BREAKDOWN

NOTEWORTHY IN 2015ABOUT 2015: The G-Braves produced a winning record for the fourth time in seven seasons since moving to Lawrenceville, going 77-67 (.535) to finish tied for fifth in the International League. It was Gwinnett’s first winning campaign since 2011 when the club went 78-65 (.545) and finished second in the IL South Division.

• Second in the South: Gwinnett finished second in the IL South Division for the second consecutive season, trailing division champion Norfolk (78-66) by 1.0 game and leading both Charlotte (74-70) and Durham (74-70) by 4.0 games.• Playoff Push: Gwinnett fell 1.0 game short of forcing a one-game playoff with Norfolk to decide the IL South title. The club also finished 6.0 games behind Indianapolis (83-51) for the IL Wild Card spot.• Late Season Turnaround: After spending 99 consecutive days alone in fourth place in the IL South from 4/18-7/25 (48-44 record), the G-Braves moved into third place for nine days from 7/26-8/3 (7-1 record) and ascended to second place for the final 35 days from 8/4-9/7 (19-16 record).

ABOUT THE STAFF: Manager Brian Snitker completed his second season at the helm of the G-Braves in 2015, his 39th year as a member of the Atlanta Braves’ organization. He led Gwinnett to a 77-67 mark, his best record as a manager since guiding Advanced-A Myrtle Beach to an 88-52 record and a Carolina League title in 2000. Snitker’s field staff included pitching coach Marty Reed (5th season), hitting coach John Moses (1st season), coach Billy Nicholson (6th season), trainer Mike Graus (7th season) and strength and conditioning coach Jason Curry (2nd season).

NOTEWORTHY IN 2015SOLID SEASON FOR SMITH: LHP Greg Smith went 6-7 with a team-best 2.71 ERA (36 ER in 119.2 IP) in 31 outings (19 starts). His 2.71 ERA was lowest among all Braves’ farmhands and ranked fourth-lowest among qualifying IL pitchers. In addition to ERA, Smith led GWN in starts, quality starts (8), innings, WHIP (1.20, 7th in IL) and lowest BAA (.255, 10th in IL) and tied for the team lead in wins. Smith posted the longest scoreless streak by a G-Brave in 2015, reeling off 20.0 consecutive scoreless innings (17.1 IP as a starter) over eight outings from the fourth inning on 6/3 to the first inning on 7/3.

HAWAII 6-0: Maui native RHP Kanekoa Texeira set a G-Braves’ record with wins in six consecutive starts from 7/20-8/15, posting a 3.63 ERA (14 ER in 34.2 IP), a .230 BAA (28-for-122, 3 HR) and four quality starts in that span. He broke the previous record held by RHP Charlie Morton, who won five consecutive starts from 5/8/09-5/29/09.

NEED FOR SPEED: Gwinnett ranked second in the IL in both stolen bases (160 SB, 160-for-206, 77.7%) and triples (37) in 2015, trailing only the Indianapolis Indians in each category (168 SB, 45 3B). It was the Richmond/Gwinnett franchise’s most steals in a single season since 1986 (club record 195) and most triples in a single season since 2003 (club record 55). Four G-Braves finished the season among the IL’s top 20 base stealers: OF Mallex Smith (3rd, 34 SB), OF Eury Perez (T-5th, 28 SB), 2B Jose Peraza (T-9th, 26 SB) and OF Eric Young, Jr. (T-16th, 23 SB). Four G-Braves also finished among the IL’s top 20 in triples: Peraza (T-5th, 7), Smith (T-7th, 6), INF Sean Kazmar (T-7th, 6) and OF Cedric Hunter (T-14th, 4).

HISTORIC HOMER DROUGHT: The G-Braves ranked last in affiliated Triple-A baseball (IL and Pacific Coast League) in total home runs in 2015, hitting 50 in 144 games. It’s the fewest homers produced in a single season in Richmond/Gwinnett franchise history, eclipsing the previous low of 68 homers in both 2001 and 2006. Gwinnett’s 50 blasts were the fewest by an IL team since the 1980 Tidewater Tides hit just 43 in 139 games.

BULLPEN TRENDS: GWN relievers went 35-18 with a 2.62 ERA (150 ER in 515.2 IP), 57 holds and 44 saves (44-for-61) in 142 games. The 44 saves were the club’s most since the inaugural 2009 season (49) and were just six shy of the Richmond/Gwinnett single-season record (50 saves in 1989). RHP Ryan Kelly (3-1, 0.95 ERA, 13 SV), RHP Carlos Fisher (2-4, 1.61 ERA, 6 SV), RHP Ryan Weber (3-1, 1.65 ERA, 3 SV) and RHP David Carpenter (3-1, 1.78 ERA, 2 SV) all finished with ERAs below 2.00.

ROSTER MOVES: Including Major Leaguers on rehab assignments, a total of 68 players (28 position/40 pitchers) saw action with Gwinnett in 2015. It’s the most players to suit up for the G-Braves in the club’s seven-year history (2009-current), shattering the previous record of 57 players (26 position/31 pitchers) used in the inaugural 2009 campaign.

JENKINS, SMITH TABBED BRAVES’ MILB PLAYERS OF THE YEAR: On 9/10, the Atlanta Braves named RHP Tyrell Jenkins their Minor League Pitcher of the Year and OF Mallex Smith their Minor League Player of the Year for 2015.

• Jenkins: Went 8-9 and posted the fourth-lowest ERA among Braves’ farmhands at 3.19 over 25 starts between Double-A Mississippi (5-5, 3.00 ERA in 16 starts) and Gwinnett (3-4, 3.57 ERA in 9 starts).• M. Smith: Batted .306 (148-for-484, 17 2B, 8 3B, 2 HR, 84 R, 35 RBI, 57 SB) in 126 games between MIS and GWN, ranking fourth among Braves’ farmhands in batting and fifth among all MiLB players in steals (57-for-70, 81.4%). Smith was named the IL Player of the Month for August after batting .336 with league highs in hits (41), triples (3), runs (24) and steals (13).

BANUELOS, GARCIA EARN GWINNETT PLAYER OF THE YEAR HONORS: The Atlanta Braves also named LHP Manny Banuelos the Gwinnett Pitcher of the Year and 3B Adonis Garcia the Gwinnett Player of the Year for 2015 on 9/10.

• Banuelos: Went 6-2 with a 2.23 ERA in 16 starts with GWN, including his first career CG SHO on 6/22 vs. Indianapolis (9.0 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 5 SO in 2-0 win). He was selected to the 2015 Triple-A All-Star Game, but did not participate as Atlanta recalled him for his MLB debut on 7/2. He went 1-4 with a 5.13 ERA in seven games (6 starts) for the Braves.• Garcia: Batted .284 (94-for-331, 17 2B, 3B, 3 HR, 43 R, 47 RBI, 5 SB) in 87 games with GWN. When purchased for his MLB debut on 5/17, he ranked among IL leaders in batting (2nd, .351), hits (T-2nd, 47), doubles (T-2nd, 11), runs (T-3rd, 21), total bases (T-4th, 61) and RBI (T-8th, 21). He went on to bat .277 (53-for-191, 12 2B, 10 HR, 20 R, 26 RBI) in 58 games with Atlanta.

23 - Tommie AaronJersey retired at Coolray Field on April 12, 2012

The only man in International League history to earn league MVP honors and manage a Governors’ Cup champion, Tommie Aaron played for Richmond for four seasons (1966-67, 1971-72) and managed the club for two seasons (1977-78). He hit .309 as the IL MVP in 1967, helping the Braves capture the IL pennant. Ten seasons later, he became the league’s first African-American manager, and in just his second season at the helm, led Richmond to the Governors’ Cup Championship in 1978. Aaron’s number 23 was originally retired at “The Diamond” in Richmond in 1985, shortly after his passing in 1984.

42 - Jackie robinsonJersey retired at Coolray Field on April 15, 2012

Retired by all of professional baseball in 1997, the number 42 worn by trailblazer and Baseball Hall-of-Famer Jackie Robinson was added to the Coolray Field outfield wall on April 15, 2012 to honor “Jackie Robinson Day.”
