Press Release: I70Baseball.com

As you probably know, I write a weekly column over at Baseball Digest.  Bill Ivie was the one that got me set up over there and has gotten very involved with the United Cardinal Bloggers.  Bill's got a new site coming, so I thought I'd reprint the press release here.  Sounds like a place you'll want to bookmark to keep up with all things baseball in Missouri.

- New Website set to launch will provide exclusive coverage of Royals/Cardinals baseball -

In an effort to provide coverage of Missouri baseball on a daily basis, i70baseball.com will go "live" to the internet on Monday, July 12^th. 

Bill Ivie, Jr., Assignment Editor for BaseballDigest.com, has developed a team to bring daily content for the two major league teams that share opposite ends of the interstate that cuts through the state of Missouri.  Joining GothamBaseball.com as the second Official Affiliate site of parent site BaseballDigest.com, i70baseball.com aims to bring quality content that provides a combination of opinionated commentary, game analysis, player profiles, fantasy baseball analysis and pays tribute the rich history of both franchises.

Derrick Docket has partnered with Bill Ivie, Jr. to provide top quality design and graphic work to the website.  Derrick is responsible for all of the graphics, layouts, designs and multimedia that the public will see every day.

Bill has compiled a team of writers being led by Josh Gilliam, Content Editor and Senior Writer for i70baseball.com.  A writer with years of experience in the traditional newspaper sports environment as well as the online environment, Josh brings a strong track record of quality writing and writer development to an already strong team.

Enhanced by a weekly internet radio show to be broadcast every Monday at 10 p.m. CST, a weekly electronic newsletter recapping the week's top stories, a Facebook "Fan Page" and a partnership as the Official Content Provider of Royals and Cardinals coverage to the iPhone Application Venuing (www.venuing.com), i70baseball.com will look to be everywhere the fans of the two teams want them to be immediately.  Backed by their parent site, BaseballDigest.com, the team of people at i70baseball.com will most certainly hit the ground running in every aspect of their coverage.
