A community effort to name Hagerstown's new minor league baseball team came to a close Thursday when team officials announced the team will be known as the Flying Boxcars.
The name honoring Fairchild Aircraft's production of cargo planes was right up there with the Hagerstown Haymakers in an online voting contest.
The Maryland General Assembly funded the team's new stadium at Baltimore Street and Summit Avenue. The Flying Boxcars begin play next year.
