On warm Central Valley nights, under the glow of stadium lights and the hum of anticipation, something familiar is coming back to Modesto. After years without a hometown club, professional baseball returns in May 2026, bringing with it more than just a game. It brings back a tradition, a gathering place, and a renewed sense of pride for a community ready to rally behind its team once again.
On March 14, nearly 50 hopeful athletes stepped onto the field in Modesto with one goal: earn a shot at professional baseball. By the end of the day, three standout players rose above the competition, securing invitations to the Modesto Roadsters’ Spring Training camp this May. For many, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. For a select few, it was the first step toward wearing “Modesto” across their chest.
