Dodger Dynasty

When Reno Lizzi first brought professional baseball to Lethbridge, little did he know he was on a collision course with the team he grew up idolizing.

Over the course of the next four years, the Lethbridge Dodgers would claim three Pioneer League championships under manager Gail Henley.

Opinion: Jays Go Deep

That one stings.

Heartbreaking, gut wrenching, soul crushing … it was all of those things. And it was the type of loss that will linger for a very long time.

We take a look back at a memorable World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays … and the ripple effects felt from coast to coast to coast.

A Comeback Season to Remember

When Garrett Hawkins toed the rubber at Parkview Field in Fort Wayne for the first time in 2025, it admittedly felt surreal.

Little did he know, the Biggar, Saskatchewan native and Vauxhall Academy grad’s first appearance would be a sign of great things to come in the San Diego Padres’ farm system.

Dream Come True

He’s been one of Canada’s highest-ranked prospects for a couple of years now.

Dawgs Academy product Tim Piasentin (Coquitlam, B.C.) is now joining “Canada’s Team” as the Toronto Blue Jays selected him in the fifth round of the 2025 MLB Draft.

Peters Makes MLB Debut

Tristan Peters – an All-Star outfielder in the Western Canadian Baseball League with the Okotoks Dawgs – has made his Major League Baseball debut with the Tampa Bay Rays.

Like Father, Like Son

Sometimes when Ray Chadwick watches his son pitch he sees himself out there on the mound.

His son, Dawgs Academy alum Tyrelle, is also taking his game to the pros after being drafted by the Colorado Rockies.

2025 MLB Draft Review

After 20 rounds of picks and more than 600 player selections, the Major League Baseball Draft has come to a close.

The prospect-plucking exercise took place in Cumberland, Georgia, with the first three rounds taking place on July 13th and the remaining 17 rounds happening on July 14th.

Among the picks were a number of players with ties to the Western Canadian Baseball League (WCBL).

Here’s a closer look at some of those draft choices …

Herron’s Crossing

All Tyler Herron wanted was a chance to put his foot in professional baseball’s door.

The Grande Prairie native has always been willing to do whatever it takes to move up the ladder in baseball, whether it’s moving to a new town or changing schools.

He’s now into his first full pro season with the Tampa Bay Rays organization.

Melton Makes MLB Debut

Outfielder Jacob Melton, a former player with the Okotoks Dawgs, is now officially a major leaguer.

The No. 2 prospect of the Houston Astros was called up over the weekend and made his Major League Baseball (MLB) debut on Sunday, June 1st in a game against the Tampa Bay Rays.

Calling for Cohen

It’s hard to believe that just one year ago, Cohen Achen was putting the wraps on an exceptional collegiate career at Lindsey Wilson College and was getting ready to play summer baseball with the Intercounty Baseball League’s London Majors.

The Calgary native was instead drafted by the Baltimore Orioles and is now in cruise control moving up the team’s depth charts.
