Rochester Baseball League (RBL) 18+ Division will be playing their annual All-Star Game, an exhibition to showcase Rochester’s best amateur baseball players, on Tuesday, July 24 at Frontier Field.
The RBL, previously the Rochester, New York chapter of the National Adult Baseball Association (NABA), is Rochester’s premier adult amateur, wood bat, baseball organization and is currently ranked as one of the largest amateur adult baseball leagues in the entire county. The league is designed to be a fun, family-oriented baseball environment where more than 500 player-members come together weekly between May and August to participate in one of our two divisions.
Proudly flourishing since their conception in the summer of 1993 the RBL currently has 15 teams participating in their 18+ Division and another 12 teams playing in their 28+ Division. The 18+ Division plays primarily Sunday doubleheaders with the occasional weeknight game while the 28+ Division splits their games between a weeknight and Sunday mornings.
People are often shocked to learn that not only does Rochester have an amateur baseball league but also that there are 27-teams and over 400 members yearly. The league isn’t about signing a big-league contract or being paid to play but rather developing a community of adult baseball players who feel blessed to have the opportunity to compete, play hard, and play the game they love.
The RBL 18+ Division All-Star Game will take place Tuesday, July 24 at Frontier Field, 333 Plymouth Avenue, Rochester. Gates open at 6 p.m. with the first pitch scheduled for 7 p.m. Admission is free.
