Round Rock Donuts taste different than regular ol’ donuts. Just ask the hundreds of Express fans who lined up outside of Dell Diamond in 110-degree heat to get their hands not on the delicious treat, but a jersey with donuts all over it. On July 21, the Rangers’ Triple-A affiliate

For the Syracuse Mets, hosting Haudenosaunee Night was a long time coming. Years ago, the club's general manager Jason Smorol met Oren Lyons, a star lacrosse player at Syracuse University in the 1950s.

The Rangers have made headlines in recent years for their promising crop of young arms in the farm system. But Evan Carter and Luisangel Acuña are here to remind everyone that the future is bright at the plate, too. Carter -- the club’s No. 1 and baseball’s No. 6 overall

Get ready to have “Brass Bonanza” stuck in your head for a while. On July 21-22, the Hartford Yard Goats hosted their annual Whalers Alumni Weekend, an event that remains the most popular weekend at Dunkin’ Donuts Park. Connecticut residents flock to the Minor League ballpark to celebrate their since-departed

Brett Auerbach can play just about anywhere in the field. The Giants’ utility man has manned five positions across two levels in 2023 -- second base, third base, left field, center field, catcher -- and in 29 games with High-A Eugene, he’s only played as a backstop five times. But

Jackson Merrill has officially brought his sweet-swinging ways to Alamo City. MLB’s No. 9 overall prospect launched his first Double-A home run -- his 11th dinger of the year -- as part of his second straight three-hit effort in the San Antonio Missions’ 10-3 loss. The 20-year-old has hit safely

If there’s one thing the St. Paul Saints know better than baseball, it’s pigs. When former team president Mike Veeck was taking a walk along the Mississippi River, he came across a historical marker that read: "St. Paul, formally known as Pig’s Eye Landing." Named after an old French trapper

Termarr Johnson came out swinging on the other side of the All-Star break. Before Friday, the top Pirates prospect had one four-hit effort, one multihomer game and one four-RBI performance to his name, all accomplished in different games. Now, the 19-year-old has two of each, and he achieved all three

In the fictional world of the hit NBC sitcom “The Office,” Meredith Palmer is prone to mishaps, can be snarky and is known to enjoy a beverage or two. But Kate Flannery, the actress who portrayed the Dunder Mifflin employee for nine seasons, is nothing like her character. Just ask

On July 16, 2022, Leandro Cedeño of the Amarillo Sod Poodles took a mighty hack at a 3-0 pitch in his third trip to the plate. Instantly, knowing he had crushed it, he sauntered out of the box and took a well-earned trot around the bases. Little did he know,

Not even the calendar flipping to July could stop Tyler Hardman. It’s been a fruitful past two weeks for the 18th-ranked Yankees prospect. He slugged his first multihomer game of the season on June 17, notched another one on Wednesday and, three days later, left the yard three times in

Wherever Colt Keith goes, he mashes. And if anyone needed more proof of that, look no further than his first game with Triple-A Toledo. Just two pitches into his first at-bat after being promoted from Double-A Erie, MLB’s No. 42 prospect clobbered a 425-foot homer to straightaway center. He went

One home run sailed far over the fence. The other bounced off the wall and rolled into center field. No matter how the dingers played out, top Mets prospect Kevin Parada still touched ‘em all twice for his first career multihomer game. “It felt good,” Parada said. “It’s a good

"Hey, Dad, you wanna have a catch?" The timeless quote from "Field of Dreams" film resonates much deeper on a certain Sunday in June. Several teams around Minor League Baseball paid tribute to that moment by bringing out fans and their fathers to have a catch (or play catch, however

The 41st annual Strawberry Festival in Owego, N.Y., takes place this weekend, and one Mets affiliate is uniquely positioned to celebrate it. The Double-A Rumble Ponies, located just a 25-minute drive away in Binghamton, have transformed into the Southern Tier Shortcakes for the next three days. But a strawberry-themed weekend

One of Minor League Baseball’s most iconic franchises will be celebrating one of sports cinema’s most iconic movies with one of its most iconic scenes. OK, you get the point. But many would agree that "Bull Durham" is one of the best sports films of all time, and the Triple-A

If you looked up “ridiculous” in the dictionary, there’s a good chance that Jace Jung’s June numbers would be part of the definition. To say the top Tigers prospect has been on a tear lately would be an understatement. In eight games this month, Jung is slashing .485/.526/.848 with more

The baseball community mourns the loss of Dave Elmore, a beloved owner and founder of several Minor League teams, who passed away on Wednesday. He was 88. It’s apparent that few embodied the true spirit of Minor League Sports quite like Elmore, who was the founder of the Elmore Sports

On June 7, 2005, Braves prospects James Parr and Angelo Burrows combined to throw a no-hitter for the Rome Braves against the Savannah Sand Gnats, a then-Mets affiliate. As fate would have it, exactly 18 years later, Atlanta prospects Daniel Martinez and Luis Vargas combined to no-hit the Hickory Crawdads,

On a warm June night in northeast Indiana, Fort Wayne's Parkview Field was full of daisies. The Daisies of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League, to be exact. The High-A TinCaps honored the city's AAGPBL team on Saturday, wearing replica jerseys and unveiling a monument dedicated to the club that

James Wood is moving on up, and moving on up with style. The top Nationals prospect clubbed his first Double-A home run on Thursday, his first extra-base hit since being promoted on May 28. Wood sports 60-grade power -- tied with his speed for his highest-graded tool -- and he

Ethan Salas doesn't even have a learner's permit yet, but the 16-year-old phenom already has a license to hit. The Padres’ No. 3 prospect skipped over the Rookie-level Complex League entirely and was assigned to Single-A to begin his professional career. As if that wasn’t impressive enough, Salas scored the

A lot of things happened at the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp game on Saturday. It started with a triple play to escape a jam in the first inning and ended with the Marlins’ Triple-A affiliate hitting two grand slams and putting up 20 runs in a home game for the first
