The Baby Birds are back, and baseball on Delmarva is ready to kick off Friday, April 8, at Arthur W. Perdue Stadium against the Fredericksburg Nationals.
With Opening Day looming, the Delmarva Shorebirds 2022 Opening Day roster has officially been announced, and new prospects are filling it from top to bottom.
