Andrew Klein, Frederick Keys General Manager

With the start of the Frederick Keys’ second season in the MLB Draft League approaching, the team’s general manager, Andrew Klein, is the guest this week on The Final Score podcast.

Klein chats with host Greg Swatek about the crazy year of 2020 that saw the Keys lose their entire season due to the pandemic as well as their long-time affiliation with the Baltimore Orioles. Klein answers questions about the MLB Draft League and how its been received in Frederick so far, the team’s new ownership group, the stadium situation and the team’s desire to become an MLB affiliate again.

He also talks about how he got his start in the business, scraping gum off the bottom of stadium seats, how he fooled in daughter in a Baby Shark costume, the rejection letter he received and still has from a custodial job and how he managed the long and tedious days as a toll taker.

Prior to that, FNP sports writer John Cannon joins Greg to review the high school spring sports playoffs for Frederick County teams, which is full of teams in the state quarterfinals and semifinals for baseball, softball and boys and girls lacrosse.
