Batter up! The Hartford Yard Goats have stepped up to the plate in Minor League Baseball. The Yard Goats currently play in the Eastern League and are an affiliate team of the Colorado Rockies. In 2015, the team relocated to Hartford, Connecticut. Right off the bat, they began rebranding their team to tie with Hartford’s rich railroad history by changing the team’s name from the New Britain Rod Cats to the Hartford Yard Goats. They also drafted their MVPs- team mascots Chompers and Chew Chew!
