Read Article The owners of the Portland Sea Dogs – Sally McNamara, left, and her brother, Bill Burke, center – are shown at Hadlock Field last summer with Geoff Iacuessa, the team’s president and general manager. Yoon S. Byun/Boston Globe Sea Dogs founder Dan Burke told his children not to blur the lines between business and family. Business is business. Family is family. The daughter and youngest son of the man who brought professional baseball to Portland in 1994 may not have crossed that line as owners of the Sea Dogs, but in an awful year, they came awfully close. In March 2020, as the coronavirus pandemic was leading to shutdowns, Sally McNamara and Bill Burke quietly decided that the team’s employees – 19 full-time staffers and more than 200 people who work in game-day operations – would not miss a paycheck if any of the home games couldn’t be played.
With less than a week to go until opening day for the Portland Sea Dogs at Hadlock Field, the Double-A baseball team has scooped up a new ice cream supplier based in Skowhegan. The team announced Wednesday that Gifford's Famous Ice Cream will supply the ice cream part of the popular Sea Dogs Biscuit sweet treats sold at ballgames, a year after cutting ties with Sanford-based Shain's of Maine over accusations of racism against that company's owner. Next Tuesday when the Sea Dogs host the New Hampshire Fisher Cats at Hadlock before a limited-capacity crowd, Gifford's will supply the ice cream sandwiched between two chocolate chip cookies.
