After weeks of speculation, Chatham-Kent’s new interleague baseball team will unveil its identity today.

Management for the IBL franchise held an online contest to name the new team with more than 600 submissions and over 400 name suggestions.

The team will be unveiling its new name in an event at Red Barn Brewing in Blenheim later this morning, along with the five finalists who win tickets to the home opener next spring.

The team will also be announcing its first General Manager, front office staff, a fundraiser, and its first corporate sponsor.

The team is expected to hit the field in May, 2024.
