Tuesday, July 27, 2004 Indy Ball Team Threatened With Eviction from the Kentucky Post When you're a fledgling baseball team and the local government turns on you, it's never a good thing. That's the situation the Florence Freedom, a team in the independent Frontier League, finds itself in as it struggles to payoff the costs of its brand-new stadium.
The team faces the loss of its 30-year lease with the city, since that agreement forbid the team to allow any liens to remain on the stadium -- and to date over $1.7 million in liens have been filed by disgruntled contractors.
