John McCormick enters his first season as the General Manager of the Greenville Yard Gnomes.

With a strong background in baseball and community engagement, McCormick brings valuable experience from his time with the Coastal Plain League, East Carolina University, and the Texas Rangers organization.

A 2019 graduate of ECU, McCormick began his career in 2017 as a multimedia intern with the Coastal Plain League. He later worked with the Morehead City Marlins, contributing to back-to-back Petitt Cup Championships. McCormick also gained expertise in food & beverage management, special events, and account executive roles with the Rangers’ Minor League teams. McCormick was a part of the 2023 Texas Rangers World Series Championship front office.

“I’m thrilled to return to the Coastal Plain League and build something special in Greenville,” said McCormick. “Our goal is to make the Yard Gnomes a community staple, where families can enjoy baseball and local talent can grow.”

Under McCormick’s leadership, the Gnomes are poised for an exciting season, focusing on a family-friendly atmosphere and creating opportunities for local athletes to develop and succeed.
