Salem Red Sox
The Salem baseball team has a new identity, complete with logos, merch and more.
The cultural scene in Virginia’s Blue Ridge has something for everyone.
Meet the Class of 2021, as nominated by readers and selected by editors.
The 18-2 POUNDING Salem put on the Carolina Mudcats was the largest margin of victory to ever occur inside the gates of Salem Memorial Ballpark.
(Let it be known, every time I write a potential headline and get a jump on my soon-to-be story, the opposite of what I’ve written ALWAYS happens.)
With rain plaguing our Monday in the Roanoke Valley, there was over an hour’s worth of a rain-delay for the Red Sox game and though the game went through the 11 o’clock hour, Salem prevailed victorious; 11-8.
Salem started the game with their newest member on the mound, Pat Light. After being called up from Greenville less than 48 hours before starting, Light drove through the Carolinas into Salem to get a taste of the Carolina League.
After grabbing four wins in seven games on their latest weeklong road trip, the Salem Sox returned home to face off with their cross-town rival, the Lynchburg Hillcats.
Despite their hot start (which has been the key to victory), the Sox suffered their first series sweep of the 2014 season.
Coming through with a huge game on his birthday was the center fielder, Matty Johnson. It doesn’t get much sweeter than being a game-winning hero on your special day.
