It’s with great pride that the Italian American Baseball Foundation names Marco Mazzieri as an IABF Ambassador Award honoree. He will be recognized at the 2024 IABF Gala at Marina Del Rey in the Bronx.

Mazzieri, who is running in an election to be President of the Federation of Italian Baseball and Softball, managed Team Italy at the World Baseball Classic in 2007, 2013, and 2017 and led Italy to back-to-back European titles in 2010 and 2012 and an Intercontinental Cup bronze medal in 2010. He was also the European manager in the Global Baseball Games against Samurai Japan in March 2024.
