Gary SouthShore RailCats

Step into the heart of Indiana's baseball scene with the Gary SouthShore RailCats, the hard-hitting independent league team that calls the legendary U.S. Steel Yard home. Known for its electric atmosphere and blue-collar passion, RailCats baseball delivers everything fans love about America's pastime — the crack of the bat, the roar of the crowd, and the thrill of watching talented players compete with everything on the line. Whether you're a lifelong baseball devotee or bringing the family out for their first game, an evening with the RailCats promises pure, unfiltered sporting joy. The RailCats hit the road in May 2026 for a compelling stretch of away matchups that showcases the competitive spirit of the American Association. Catch them battle the Lake Country DockHounds at Wisconsin Brewing Company Park across three straight days — May 15, 16, and 17 — before they shift gears to take on the Milwaukee Milkmen at Franklin Field. These road series offer fans a chance to follow their team into rival territory and experience the unique charm of multiple independent league ballparks in a single week-long swing. Independent league baseball offers something the majors rarely can — intimacy, accessibility, and a genuine connection between players and fans. You're close enough to feel the game, cheer directly at the dugout, and watch rising talent up close. Whether you're rooting from the stands in Gary or traveling to see the RailCats on the road, these games deliver memories that last far beyond the final out.
