About Me
Brian Spradlin is a results-driven professional with a bachelor's degree in Sports Communication from Warner University (FL). After concluding his athletic career and graduating from Warner, Brian took to freelance videography and marketing, which led to his start in the professional sports industry. This first opportunity came with the Pittsburgh Pirates and Bradenton Marauders in January of 2024 as the Game presentation and Marketing assistant, where he would assist and direct the in-game television production while producing multi-media content for digital marketing. This work led to Brian receiving the Digital Marketing Coordinator position for the Atlanta Braves Spring Training site in North Port, FL., where he would coordinate social media and marketing campaigns. After a few months in his new role, the opportunity to return to Bradenton presented itself as he has now taken over the Game Presentation & Marketing Manager position for the 2025 season and years to come.
