Rochester Honkers Baseball Team Ceases Operations in 2027
22 Aug
Summary
- Rochester Honkers baseball team to go on hiatus starting in 2027.
- Team is moving out of its historic 1951 Mayo Field ballpark.
- Owners hope to announce a new playing field by year's end.
The Rochester Honkers baseball team has departed from its longtime home at Mayo Field, with the team slated for a hiatus in 2027. Friday marked moving day for the Northwoods League club, which held a fire sale of merchandise and equipment. The team's lease at the city-owned ballpark, built in 1951, features an escape clause tied to adjacent city facilities.
These facilities are relocating, triggering the clause. Honkers owners announced in April that the 2026 season would be their last at Mayo Field. Team president Chris Goodell expressed optimism about the team's future, stating they plan to return and are working to secure a new venue.
