Pillbox Hat 👀

Is this real? Did someone get their hands on one of these?

Just for context, pillbox hats are like the old 70s Pittsburgh Pirates hats… Similar to the mascot “Mighty Lex” hat.

There’s no picture which makes me feel like they might be about to drop… I’ve been begging for these in the DMs. I feel like a hero if I made this happen.

Photo request: Smith Jr. (Double Dare jersey game)

Hi all. I won his jersey at auction and wondered of someone here has a photo of him from the game? I also won one from a cancer awareness night but it hasn't arrived yet

Lexington Legends join the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball - Official Discussion Thread

A couple months ago it was announced that The Legends would be losing their MLB affiliation. While that news was very disappointing to most of us, we have received good news today.

Ir was just recently announced on Legends social media, that the Lexington Legends will continue playing professional baseball in the independent Atlantic League.

This is very exciting news for those of us who wanted professional baseball to stay at Whitaker Bank Ballpark. However, will an independent league bring in as large of crowds when compared to the previous minor league affiliation? We will just have to wait and see what happens for the legends.

What are your thoughts on this? Will this be good or bad for Lexington? Will things be better or worse without the Royals?

Once again, this subreddit will remain dedicated to Lexington Legends baseball despite what league they play in. Thank you for supporting r/LexingtonLegends

If it wasn’t for COVID-19, Today would be the Legends opening day. Instead, you can “share your stache” on social media for a chance to win prizes.
