The Commissioner

Ed Gadomski has served as “Chairman of the Board of Directors” of the Tri-State Baseball League since October 2003 after taking over for Bob McMahon, who resigned from the position after three years on the job.  In 2006, he was promoted to the Commissioner and has been responsible for the everyday running of the league. After graduating from Kaynor Tech High School in 1985, he graduated from Naugatuck Valley Community College (NVCC) in 1987 with an Associates Degree in business management.  He continued his education in 1988, graduating at the top of his class from CPI in Bridgeport with a Computer Operations Degree.  He now works as a Computer Support Specialist at Waterbury Hospital.

 

A 10-year veteran of the Twi-Met league, he also served three years as the league secretary while managing his own team (Stack Oil). In 1992, he joined the Thomaston Spoilers of the Tri-State Baseball League and played with them through the 2005 season before joining the Burlington Hunters in 2006.

 

His tenure as commissioner has been marked by:

· Expansion:  From 6 teams in 2003 to 15 teams in 2007.

· The Stan Musial Tournament host has been the Tri-State Baseball League since the 2005 season.

· Financial stability for the league.

· Tri-State Baseball League website created in 2007 with history archives, awards.

· Assistance in scheduling Old-Timers Day, All-Star, and International friendship games as well as the 10-team Tri-State Baseball League playoffs.

 

Gadomski has grown a strong reputation for forming a family-oriented baseball league.  A sharp increase in heavy suspensions for ejections on the field, as well as a renewed relationship with the umpire boards and newspapers has provided a strong emphasis on professionalism. Trust and fairness in his demeanor, as well as a strong Board of Directors consisting of all team managers, has gained the Tri-State Baseball League a reputation as one of the most popular  and competitive leagues in the Connecticut area.  The commish can be reached at: elgadomski@snet.net
