The Ottawa Titans Baseball Club has signed field manager Bobby Brown and coach Tom Carcione to multi-year contract extensions.
The 48-year-old Brown guided the Titans to a 56-39 finish in their inaugural 2022 campaign, advancing to the Frontier League’s East Division Series.
“We’re going to continue building a ball club that will energize the city and fans both on and off the field, and strive for our goal of winning a championship,” said Brown. “Everyone in the organization from top to bottom has tremendous pride in this team and we look forward to improving in all aspects.”
Brown debuted as a coach with Allan Hancock College in 2007, before getting his first managerial job with the Las Cruces Vaqueros of the Continental Baseball League in 2010. After a brief stop in the North American League in 2011, Brown joined the American Association, where he’d stay for nearly a decade. Brown parted ways with the Lincoln Saltdogs organization after the 2019 season. While with Lincoln, Brown earned manager of the year honours in 2017, guiding the Saltdogs to a Central Division championship. Prior to accepting the Titans managerial position, Brown served as the hitting coach for the Pioneer League champion Missoula PaddleHeads in 2021.
The 56-year-old Carcione served as the Titans’ pitching coach a season ago and has nearly 30 years of experience across many different levels of baseball, both as a coach and as a player. He was the hitting coach, then interim manager for the Can-Am League’s Ottawa Rapidz in 2008.
