Class C baseball in Cologne, Minnesota
The Cologne Hollanders are an amateur baseball club from Cologne, Minnesota, playing Class C in the Crow River Valley South League under the Minnesota Baseball Association. They went 15-12 in 2026 under manager Brandon Fritz, at Robert G. Fritz Memorial Field.
The manager and the ballpark share a surname. In a Carver County town of about two thousand, that is not a coincidence and it is not explained anywhere on the association's page, because everybody in Cologne already knows the answer.
Twelve classification points is mid Class C, and fifteen wins across a twenty-seven game season is a solid return from it.
The town is Cologne, the club is the Hollanders, and the ballpark is on Playhouse Street West. Three names from three different places, all inside one square mile of Minnesota.
The manager and the ballpark share a surname and the association explains neither. High Cheese gives Cologne the page where somebody finally can.
