I am so excited about, fresh air, sunshine, and baseball! Yes, baseball is returning to the Jersey Shore and we are getting close to opening day at First Energy Park in Lakewood.
The BlueClaws issued a joint statement with the Phillies on Wednesday announcing the decision stemming from Major League Baseball's new player development structure.
The team is changing their name and their image heading into their 20th season on the field by going from the Lakewood BlueClaws to the Jersey Shore BlueClaws.
In what would have been their 20th season on the baseball diamond that was cancelled along with other affiliated teams by Minor League Baseball due to the Covid-19 Pandemic, the Lakewood BlueClaws can still celebrate a major milestone in 2020.
