Hibbing Miners

Class A baseball in Hibbing, Minnesota

The Hibbing Miners are an amateur baseball club from Hibbing, Minnesota, playing Class A in the Northwest Border League under the Minnesota Baseball Association. They went 7-5 in 2026 under manager Adam Schafer at Al Nyberg Field.

Hibbing sits on the Mesabi Iron Range beside the Hull-Rust mine, one of the largest open pit iron mines in the world, and the club is called the Miners. Where most town ball names have drifted into decoration, this one still describes what the town does.

Forty-eight classification points is mid Class A for a city of about sixteen thousand. Twelve games is a short recorded season, which either means a short year or results that stopped being entered, and the association's page does not say which.

The Northwest Border League runs from Hibbing across to Bemidji and up to the Canadian line, which makes it one of the longest road trips in organized amateur baseball.

A club named the Miners beside the Hull-Rust mine, where the name still describes the town. High Cheese gives Hibbing the page where that is worth saying out loud.
