Salem Red Sox

The Salem Red Sox are a Minor League Baseball team in Salem, Virginia. We are a member of the Class A-Advanced Carolina League and a farm team for the Boston Red Sox. The Salem Red Sox play home games at Haley Toyota Field at Salem Memorial Ballpark. The Salem Red Sox are proud to have helped develop eight members of the 2018 World Series Championship team including reigning American League MVP Mookie Betts. Betts led Salem to our most recent Carolina League title in 2013. While the current ownership dates back to 2009, the organization's history is much more robust. In 2017 Salem played its 50th season in the Carolina League, but the professional baseball history dates all the way back to 1939. Salem alumni include Hall of Famer Orlando Cepeda, National League MVP Dave Parker and two members of the Chicago Cubs curse breaking 2016 team, Anthony Rizzo and Ben Zobrist. Despite all that history, the Salem Red Sox and Haley Toyota Field are so much more than a minor league baseball team. We also host the Roanoke College Maroons baseball program, the Virginia High School League state tournament as well as numerous other showcase events. Apart from baseball the ballpark also hosts multiple movie nights, two beer festivals, a fall festival, a community yard sale and many other community events. The Salem Red Sox are an integral part of the Roanoke Valley. Each year the ballpark hosts upwards of a quarter million visitors. Red Sox players, staff and our lovable mascot Mugsy participate in countless hospital and school visits as well as other community events. The Red Sox are operated by Fenway Sports Management, a subsidiary of Fenway Sports Group. FSG has interests in the Boston Red Sox, Liverpool FC and RoushFenway Racing.
