A win, whether in the ballpark or in the marketplace, depends on every team member knowing his or her role and performing flawlessly.

 Roadway & Baseball:
An
impressive heritage with distinct roles in American history
Baseball and Roadway are part of the thread that ties
together generations of Americans. Baseball influenced
sports, leisure, and social change; Roadway influenced
the modern transportation industry and American economy.
The pairings of ball with bat and truck with road are part of the nation’s
collective consciousness. Their naturalness and apparent simplicity attract,
even endear, baseball and trucks to many. Yet most people don’t realize
they are watching complex activities that require speed, reliability and innovation. 
Play Ball!
Baseball—the sport that thrills fans and creates legends with speed, reliability
and innovation through teamwork. Roadway—the company that develops solutions
for customers’ transportation and logistics challenges with speed, reliability
and innovation through teamwork. To celebrate our shared values, Roadway is playing
ball!
Our celebration features unique game-day experiences for select customers
at major league games. All ballpark events include Times
of Greatness, an interactive mobile exhibit of the Negro Leagues baseball story
sponsored by Roadway Express. The mobile exhibit will be open to the public
at select events.
We look forward to telling you more at roadway.com/baseball throughout the 2005
season!
