The Railroaders are in their fourth season and fifth overall year as a franchise. Cleburne did not participate in the 2020 season as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Goldeyes won the inaugural game at The Depot at Cleburne Station on May 18 th , 2017 by a final score of 5-3.

Former Wichita Wingnuts’ general manager Josh Robertson was named Director of Baseball Operations. Robertson oversaw the construction of Wingnuts’ rosters throughout their entire history from 2008-18. During that span, the Wingnuts posted the highest winning percentage at any level of professional baseball and won the 2014 American Association championship. Cleburne posted its first winning record in 2019 at 57-43, and missed out on the postseason as a result of a tiebreaker. Former Major League pitcher Mike Jeffcoat takes over as manager in 2021. Jeffcoat logged over 500.0 innings across 10 Major League seasons for the Cleveland Indians, San Francisco Giants, Texas Rangers, and Florida Marlins. Jeffcoat previously served as head coach at Texas Wesleyan University from 2002-18. Former Winnipeg Blue Bombers punter Jon Ryan joined the Railroaders’ ownership group leading into the 2021 season. Ryan played for the Seattle Seahawks from 2008-17, helping them win the 2014 Super Bowl. Prior to 2017, the city of Cleburne had not enjoyed professional baseball since 1906 when the original Railroaders won the Texas League championship. Hall of Fame outfielder Tris Speaker, who amassed 3,515 Major League base hits, began his professional career with the 1906 club. SERIES MATCHUP: The Winnipeg Goldeyes are 10-14, in fifth place in the American Association North Division, and 6.0 games behind the Chicago Dogs.

  • Independent Professional Baseball Education Atlantic League
    Independent Professional Baseball Education Atlantic League The Atlantic League was founded in 1998 and consists of 8 teams, primarily on the East Coast of the United States. The league is a popular landing spot for former Major League baseball players who are looking to get back to affiliated baseball quickly. Typically, Atlantic League players are a little older and have previous professional playing experience. American Association / Can-Am League The American Association was founded in 2005 and consists of 12 teams in the Midwest and East Coast of the United States. The Association plays an integrated schedule with Can-Am League teams as both league share a commissioner and various front office staff. Typically, the American Association is made up of players with previous professional experience with a handful of rookies on each team. Frontier League The Frontier League was founded in 1993 and consists of 12 teams. It is the longest, continually operational independent league in professional baseball. Most teams in the Frontier League are located in the Midwest of the United States. The Frontier League is viewed as an ideal place to play for younger players with little or no professional experience. Frontier League bylaws state that each team may only have under contract a limited number of experienced players. Because of this, the Frontier League typically sends more players to affiliated baseball than any other independent professional league. The Frontier League also makes a point of signing young, exciting players with bright futures in the game as evidenced by their agreement with the California Winter League to sign players every year during the CWL season.
