Minor League Baseball Diversity Initiative

Diversity & Inclusion

At Minor League Baseball, we proudly strive to be the most fun and inclusive league in all professional sports. We do so by building bridges into the game and business of baseball that allow anyone and everyone to enjoy the game as an athlete, employee, fan or partner. Our national footprint puts us in 160 diverse communities and, with 40+ million fans attending games every year, we are uniquely positioned to impact the spaces we call home and society as a whole.

Diversity and inclusion drive engagement, innovation and creativity - which are key elements to us creating a family and fan-friendly environment in each of our ballparks. Embracing differences and leveraging them make our industry stronger enhances our ability to meet the needs of our communities.

The College Speaker Series Program was developed to bring awareness of career opportunities in MiLB to students in sport management programs across the country. Each year, executives from the MiLB headquarters visit colleges and universities to share their career experiences and bring industry exposure and knowledge to the classroom. In addition, students learn about job/internship opportunities at the MiLB headquarters and with local teams. For more information, contact Belicia Montgomery, BMontgomery@MiLB.com.
