Bay City eyed for Central League baseball relocation
Bay City Michigan, a 50 000 population town, is viewed as a potential base for the Flint Central League franchise if Flint moves this year. Bay City could host a team with two parks available, though one must be upgraded to Central League standards. The plan stems from Flint being too near Detroit Tigers territory and the local clubs favoring national attention over their own.
