Season 6, Episode 13: Now Up to Bat: The Oklahoma City Comets

from The Oklahoma Today Podcast · host Oklahoma Today magazine

The name of the baseball team in Oklahoma City might have changed for this season, but it'll be the same familiar fun times at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark this spring and summer. Known last year as the Oklahoma City Baseball Club while the organization underwent rebranding efforts, the newly dubbed Oklahoma City Comets take their inspiration from "The Commerce Comet," a nickname of Oklahoma-born baseball legend Mickey Mantle. With the first Comet homestand beginning April 1, we took the time to meet some of the faces behind the new brand. This includes new manager Scott Hennessey, team president Michael Byrnes, and everyone's soon-to-be favorite mascot Moonshot.  Also on this week's episode, the editors discuss their concession-stand favorites, and podvents blows the trumpet for the Medieval Fair of Norman. You won't want to miss it!
