SLO MSBL finally has opening day
It was a week later than expected, but on Sunday, SLO MSBL took the field to kickoff the 2025 season.
Starting out on a beautiful Sunday morning at Sinsheimer Stadium, the Hops hosted the returning Legends. The Legends kicked off the scoring in the first inning, but the Hops scratched runs across in each of their first 5 innings. With a late rally, the Legends tied it in the last inning, but the Hops scored on a pass ball to secure the win in opening contest.
In the middle matchup, the startup Los Llanteros took the field for the first time, facing the 2024 Lower division champions, Nicaragua. It was a rough first outing for the new team as they fell 19-0
In the late game, the Blacksox and Cachorros met as the breeze started to kick in. The Cachorros couldn’t quite keep up, as the Blacksox played their way to a 9-2 victory to close the day.
Further south at Porter Field, the multi-year defending League Champion Angels faced the emerging Primos for a morning game near the beach. True to form, the Angels extended their regular season undefeated streak in a 6-1 win.
The Hogs had a bye this week and are ready to take the field next week.

About SLO MSBL
The SLO MSBL is the only amateur adult baseball league serving San Luis Obispo County. It is an affiliated league of the National Men’s Senior Baseball League and is open to all adults 18 years and older.
This is real baseball. The league plays on Sundays in San Luis Obispo, or occasionally in Atascadero, Arroyo Grande or Santa Maria. The games are 9 innings or 2.5 hours long. The fields are full sized fields with 90 ft base paths, 60’6″ pitching distance and fences ranging from 295′ to 380’+.
The season typically runs from late March to late August with playoffs following the regular season. Last year, SLO MSBL had 8 teams with players ranging in age from 18 to 72. Don’t think age will get in the way of your ability to play. The only thing stopping you is…you.
Before each season, the league and managers meet to discuss changes, if needed, for the upcoming season. Divisions and local rules are subject to change before the start of each season to make the league more competitive and fun for players.
The league is a modified 30+ age league. There are 2 divisions to create competitive games. Teams can have unlimited players 30 and over and 5 players under 30. The only restriction for the younger players is that they can only pitch a combined 3 innings per team each game.
