baseball league focused on
the Middle East and
Indian Subcontinent,
announced today the official order
and structure of its first-ever Draft.
The Draft – which will be held
Tuesday, September 19th
in Cincinnati, Ohio –
will consist of eight rounds,
with eight players selected
within each round.
Each of Baseball United’s
founding four franchises will
make two selections per round.

亦即初始四队中的每一队
将会在每一轮中挑选两名球员
All the players selected
will have professional
baseball experience,
including dozens who’ve played at
the Major League Baseball level.
The 64 players will team with a
group of 16 prospects from
India, Pakistan, and the Middle East
to compete at Baseball United’s
Dubai Showcase from
November 10th – 12th
later this year in Dubai.
The prospects will be announced

“There are so many aspects
of our league
that we are excited about,
but the expanded opportunities
for players may be
at the top of the list,”
said Kash Shaikh,
Baseball United, Chairman, CEO,
and Majority Owner.
“Our draft represents the first step
to providing a means for
professional players to
extend, expand, and evolve
their careers.
Many of the top professional
baseball leagues have contracted
over the years,
limiting the chances for guys
to compete at the highest levels
of the sport.
Baseball United is a new frontier
within the Bat and Ball epicenter
of the universe and headquartered
in one of the most exciting cities
on the planet.
We can’t wait to bring
our new players and
coaches to Dubai.”
The Baseball United Draft
will begin at 11am EST/ 7pm GST,
with the first two rounds

followed by the league’s
two UAE-based franchises,

因此我也不确定这样翻译对不对)
下面就不翻译了
Baseball United chose to host
its inaugural Draft in
Cincinnati, Ohio,
home of its
North America headquarters
and the birthplace of
professional baseball.
The Cincinnati Red Stockings,
founded in 1869,
were the first professional
baseball franchise in history.
“I was born and raised in Cincinnati
and spent my entire 19-year
playing career with the
Cincinnati Reds,”
said Barry Larkin,
Baseball United,
Executive Vice President
of Growth Strategy and Co-Owner.
“I have a deep love for this city,
and I’m very excited that
Cincinnati now has an opportunity
to transport our history,
heritage, and passion for baseball
to the other side of the world.
The city that was home to the
first Major League Baseball team
more than 150 years ago
will now play a key role in
architecting the first
professional teams in India,
Pakistan, and the Middle East.
That’s pretty cool.”
Shaikh will announce the
first 16 draft picks,
with Larkin,
Baseball United Executive VP
of Baseball Operations,
John Miedreich,
and former New York Yankees
All-Star and Baseball United
Co-Owner,
Nick Swisher,
among the presenters.
