Fort Wayne is no longer the defending champion, but finishing No. 2 is still very good in this poll.
In an article published Monday, Street and Smith's Sports Business Journal ranked Fort Wayne as the No. 2 minor-league sports city in America behind Hershey-Harrisburg, Penn. Fort Wayne was the top-ranked city in 2007 after coming in No. 7 in the magazine's initial survey in 2005.
