Move over Lexington Legends, there’s a new team in town.
If you haven’t been able to get your fill of minor league baseball in central Kentucky over the years, that won’t be a problem much longer. The city of Lexington will add another club from the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball (ALPB) ahead of the 2022 season, it was announced on Thursday.
The team will be referred to as the Kentucky team (KY) until a new name is decided. It is owned by Lexington-based Stands LLC. The ALPB is about to embark on its 24th season in 2022.
