Alabama Baseball to Roll into Hank Aaron Stadium for Three-Game Series vs. Lipscomb
MOBILE, Ala. (WPMI) -- It's been over a decade since the Alabama baseball team took the diamond at Hank Aaron Stadium. That will change this weekend when the Tide coming rolling into The Hank.
With the Mobile BayBears more than away from kicking off the 2015 season, there will be action under the bright lights of Hank Aaron Stadium on Friday night, with the Crimson Tide meeting Lipscomb in the Port City for a three-game series.
We're excited to be hosting this series. This is the first time ever that we hosted a three-game series with the Alabama Crimson Tide here at Hank Aaron Stadium, says BayBears general manager Chris Morgan. We partnered up with the Mobile Sports Authority way back in the summer to put this together.
Morgan says it's a great opportunity for Tide fans in the Bay Area to catch what could be their only glimpse of the Alabama baseball team this season.
The only way fans could typically see Alabama was to drive up to Tuscaloosa or if they played somewhere close to Mobile, says Morgan. To have them here and for the fans to have maybe their only chance to see them all season is great for the community.
To top it all off, there's a special treat for Crimson Tide fans who come out to The Hank on Friday night -- a chance to meet former Alabama star quarterback and Mobile native AJ McCarron, who will throw out the celebratory first pitch in Friday night's series opener.
We reached out to him a few weeks ago and he was more than gracious and accepted immediately, Morgan said of the two-time national championship-winning quarterback. He'll be heading back to Cincinnati soon to start minicamp and he says he wants to do some community outreach before he leaves.
This weekend is also the perfect time to catch a glimpse of the new in-game fan experience that Hank Aaron Stadium has to offer this season.
Customer service, great food and beverage -- a great in-game atmosphere is what we want our fans to see this season.
The future of Hank Aaron Stadium
It is the final season for the Mobile Bay Bears in the Port City, now the countdown is on until that final pitch.
FOX10 News is working to get answers on what is next for Hank Aaron Stadium.

Race Relations in Mobile
MOBILE, Ala. (WPMI) Local 15's Town Hall meeting, 'Race Relations in Mobile,' is set to begin Tuesday from Davidson High School's auditorium. You can watch the Town Hall on UTV44 and on local15tv.com.
The conversation on race relations began earlier this year following the contentious appointment of former Mayor Sam Jones to the MAWSS Board. But the history of race relations in the Port City goes back further than that.
The fight for equal rights in Alabama is well documented. But there's one large Alabama city that seemed to stay out of the harsh media light of the 1960's: Mobile, Alabama.
Mobile still has protests about school desegregation, voting rights. But while things are breaking down in Birmingham, while things are happening in Selma, Mobile was just on a different trajectory, said Scotty Kirkland, History Museum of Mobile.
In 1956, Alabama outlawed the NAACP. John LeFlore, a local black civil rights leader in Mobile, supported its replacement, the Non Partisan Voters League. White politician Joe Langan forged a partnership with LeFlore and the league that reflected his own personal feelings about racial equality. But it also helped Langan acquire something of great value that blacks in Mobile now possessed: The vote.
With the help of black voters, Langan would go on to become Mayor of Mobile.
If you look at the desegregation of the Mobile police force, the Mobile fire dept, the public library and the golf course, most fo these things are timed for elections. Yes, they're things that are promoted as good will by both sides, but they are also political concessions for black votes. And that's something people forget, Kirkland added.
The simple handshake between Langan and LeFlore has come to symbolize a sort of civil stability in Mobile at a time in the '50s and '60's when the rest of the state seemed to be out of control. But make no mistake about it, history will show Mobile has had its share of racial strife.
World War II was the great watershed in Mobile's racial history, because in 1942 we had a young Afican American soldier who was shot and killed on a city bus by a bus driver, who actually was not prosecuted for that act. And then in 1943, the following year we had the race riot at ADDSCO, primarily because some African American workers received equal pay for the same work, said David Ashbrook with the History Museum of Mobile.
But even modern day Mobile couldn't escape deeply rooted racial hate. In 1981, black teenager Michael Donald was hanged near his midtown home. Several Ku Klux Klansmen were tried for the murder, one of those convicted was executed.
Less than a decade later, Mobile would see significant strides in the advancement of African Americans in the city. In 1990 Mayor Mike Dow appointed Harold Johnson as the city's first black police chief. In 2005 Sam Jones was elected as Mobile's first African American mayor.
But it's the struggle from those earlier years that local historians say is often overlooked by both black and white in Mobile,
We don't really study that period in our recent past very thoroughly. We don't teach it in the schools as much, and we don't read as much as we used to. And we don't talk to each others as much, Ashbrook added.

Hank Aaron
Henry Louis Hank Aaron (born February 5, 1934), nicknamed Hammer, or Hammerin' Hank, is a retired American professional baseball player. He was a Major League Baseball (MLB) right fielder from 1954 through 1976. Aaron spent 21 seasons with the Milwaukee and Atlanta Braves in the National League (NL) before playing for the Milwaukee Brewers of the American League (AL) for the final two years of his career. In 1999, The Sporting News ranked Aaron fifth on their 100 Greatest Baseball Players list. He held the MLB record for career home runs for 33 years, and he still holds several MLB offensive records. He hit 24 or more home runs every year from 1955 through 1973, and is the only player to hit 30 or more home runs in a season at least fifteen times.
Aaron was born in Mobile, Alabama, and grew up in the area. He had seven siblings, including Tommie Aaron, who later played with Hank in MLB. He briefly appeared in the Negro American League and in minor league baseball before starting his major league career. Aaron played late in Negro league history; by his final MLB season, he was the last Negro league baseball player on a major league roster.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

SUMMARY
=======
Mobile ( moh-BEEL; French pronunciation: [mɔ.bil]) is the county seat of Mobile County, Alabama, United States. The population within the city limits was 195,111 as of the 2010 United States Census, making it the third most populous city in Alabama, the most populous in Mobile County, and the largest municipality on the Gulf Coast between New Orleans, Louisiana, and St. Petersburg, Florida.
Alabama's only saltwater port, Mobile is located on the Mobile River at the head of the Mobile Bay and the north-central Gulf Coast. The Port of Mobile has always played a key role in the economic health of the city, beginning with the settlement as an important trading center between the French colonists and Native Americans, down to its current role as the 12th-largest port in the United States.Mobile is the principal municipality of the Mobile metropolitan area. This region of 412,992 residents is composed solely of Mobile County; it is the third-largest metropolitan statistical area in the state. Mobile is the largest city in the Mobile-Daphne−Fairhope CSA, with a total population of 604,726, the second largest in the state. As of 2011, the population within a 60-mile (100 km) radius of Mobile is 1,262,907.Mobile was established in 1702 by the French as the first capital of colonial La Louisiane (New France). During its first 100 years, Mobile was a colony of France, then Britain, and lastly Spain. Mobile first became a part of the United States of America in 1813, with the annexation by President James Madison of West Florida from Spain. In 1861, Alabama joined the Confederate States of America, which surrendered in 1865.Considered one of the Gulf Coast's cultural centers, Mobile has several art museums, a symphony orchestra, professional opera, professional ballet company, and a large concentration of historic architecture. Mobile is known for having the oldest organized Carnival or Mardi Gras celebrations in the United States. Its French Catholic colonial settlers celebrated this festival from the first decade of the 18th century. Beginning in 1830, Mobile was host to the first formally organized Carnival mystic society to celebrate with a parade in the United States. (In New Orleans such a group is called a krewe.)
