The Philadelphia Phillies have stepped in to help assure that Coca-Cola Park has enough funding to receive the necessary upgrades that will allow the Triple-A IronPigs to remain in the Lehigh Valley moving forward.
“We are thrilled to invest in the Lehigh Valley and Coca-Cola Park,” Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski said in a statement. “Lehigh Valley is our long-term home for our Triple-A players, and we want their experience to rival that of our Major League players in Philadelphia. With the public support from Lehigh County and others, along with the IronPigs’ commitment, together we’ll have the best Minor League facility in the country.
