Class B baseball in Carver, Minnesota
The Carver Black Sox are an amateur baseball club from Carver, Minnesota, playing Class B in the Crow River Valley North League under the Minnesota Baseball Association. They went 14-11 in 2026 under manager Bailey Melz at Carver Community Park.
Thirty-one classification points is the highest Class B figure in this section, which puts Carver right against the Class A boundary. A club sitting on that line for long enough eventually crosses it.
Carver is a Carver County town of about five thousand on the Minnesota River, and this is the second Black Sox in the Minnesota set after Alexandria. Two towns independently decided to name themselves after the most disgraced club in baseball history and neither has reconsidered.
Thirty-one points puts Carver against the Class A line, which is the sort of thing a club wants to say in its own words. High Cheese is where it gets to.
