This February and throughout the 2023 season, clubs across Minor League Baseball will celebrate Black history as part of MiLB’s The Nine initiative. From digital content to community events and programs, here's a look at what some teams have planned.
When Ronnie Gajownik reports for duty later this winter and starts her managerial career with Hillsboro, she already has a vision of what she wants it to look like. Her advice works whether you're a professional ballplayer trying to reach the Majors, or maybe a young kid just getting their first taste of the sport.
Today is the first day of Black History Month. Along with @MiLB and "The Nine" initiative, we will be honoring past and present Hot Rods. Today, we are honoring Bench Coach Skeeter Barnes!

Welcome to Eugene's PK Park, where Giants play before they're fully grown. The hometown Emeralds share their stadium with the Ducks, an amiable bear and a perhaps not-so-amiable sasquatch.
Welcome to Veterans Memorial Stadium, home of the Cedar Rapids Kernels. Explore the city's rich baseball history, enjoy a concessions cornucopia and make sure to spend time with the a-maize-ing Mr. Shucks.
Welcome to Dozer Park, a downtown stadium with an affinity for heavy machinery. If you want to see how it plays in Peoria, schedule a trip to see the hometown Chiefs.
