Moore embarks on his second season as the skipper at Prince George’s Stadium, and his 14th overall season within the Orioles organization. Under Moore’s guidance, the Baysox compiled the best second half record in their division, going 41-28 in the back end of the year. With a career managerial record of 254-216 (.540) over four total seasons, Moore has already guided some of the best teams within the Baltimore farm. He managed Class-A Delmarva during the 2019 season, leading MiLB.com’s Team of the Year to a minor league-best 90 wins, setting a Delmarva franchise record, and being named the South Atlantic Manager of the Year. Moore played two seasons in the Orioles minor leagues with Aberdeen, Delmarva, and Frederick, and played collegiately at the University of Alabama. He currently resides in Sarasota with his wife Whitney and daughters Madilyn and Cameron.

Louie, the longtime Baysox mascot, is a 6-foot-6-inch Muppet-like creature with green fur and pink hair. He serves as the Mayor or LouieVille, MD, the “Kids Capital”. In 2011, he was joined by Rocko, a cross between a Rockfish and an Oyster Toad Fish, which both thrive in the nearby Chesapeake Bay. The name Rocko was selected by a fan vote that featured over 1,500 entries.

Bowie won its first Eastern League Championship in 2015, defeating the Reading Fightin Phils three games to two in the Championship Series. Former Sea Dog Joe Gunkel, who was traded in the middle of the 2015 season, started the fifth and deciding game for Bowie and allowed one run in four innings. Bowie right fielder Mike Yastrzemski, grandson of Carl, went 2-for-4 with two doubles. | In their inaugural season in 1993, the Baysox played their home games as old Memorial Stadium in Baltimore. A handful of games were also played at the University of Maryland and the Naval Academy. | Former Sea Dogs and Red Sox LHP Eduardo Rodriguez started the 2014 season with the Bowie Baysox but was traded to Boston on July 31st for Andrew Miller, and joined Portland.
