The oldest professional sports franchise in all of Delaware, the Wilmington Blue Rocks are widely regarded as one of the east coast’s premier Minor League Baseball franchises and an award-winning source of affordable, family themed entertainment in the First State. Each year, nearly 300,000 fans walk through the gates of gorgeous Frawley Stadium to cheer on the baseball stars of tomorrow - nearly 200 of whom have made it from Wilmington to the majors. From fireworks after every Friday home game to taking the field with the players or playing catch with family in the outfield, there’s no shortage of ways the Blue Rocks etch their place in the memory banks of their loyal fans.

Judy Johnson Field at Daniel S. Frawley Stadium, the anchor of the revitalized Wilmington riverfront area, has been voted as the best ballpark in High-A baseball by Ballpark Digest and the club is consistently among the league leaders in attendance and sponsorships. Since Main Street Baseball took over ownership, the club has seen more than $1.6 million in ballpark improvements, including becoming the first A-ball team in the country to have new, energy-efficient LED lights in its ballpark.

Frawley Stadium is also the home of Mr. Celery, the club's astonishingly popular mascot, who runs onto the field to celebrate with fans after every Blue Rocks run. He is a hallmark of an incredibly enjoyable family experience that fans have come to associate with attending a Blue Rocks game.

The organization also is well-entrenched in the community, having raised tens of thousands of dollars for good causes through partnerships with Habitat for Humanity, Fight for the Gold, Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition and many other charities.
