The article is poorly written, but refers to a kids team. Evansville does have a pro baseball team, though. The Evansville Otters. They play in the Frontier league, and have been champions twice since starting the team in 1995. They play at Bosse Field, one of the oldest baseball parks in the country. They shot “A League of Their Own” there, actually. Last time I was there (late 90s), it was still decorated as it was in the movie, as the park would have been in the 40s/50s. Amazing place to see a game!
I lived in Evansville during high school and college. Otters games are fun, largely because the stadium is such a cool venue. It’s really small but definitely gives you a classic baseball kind of vibe.
Fun fact about league of their own: Madonna HATED Evansville and apparently was very outspoken about wanting to leave as quickly as possible. Having spent some of my formative years there, I get it.
