Chicago Cubs First Baseball Team to go Wireless
By
The Chicago Cubs are the first major league baseball team to utilize wireless technology to communicate between the dugout and the bullpin. Its amazing that no major league team has gone wireless yet! Now, if only this change could improve the Cubbies record… ‘Go Cards!’
The Cubs and Motorola, who announced the arrangement Monday for both the home and visiting dugouts and bullpens, said it will be the first wireless bullpen phone system used by a major league team. Cubs officials approached Major League Baseball with the idea last November after watching a playoff game in which a team had problems communicating with its bullpen, according to John McDonough, the Cubs’ senior vice president of marketing and broadcasting.
