TEAMS

  • Disciplined. Dangerous. Battle-Tested.

    Representing Eielson Air Force Base, the Ice Men are more than just a baseball team—they’re a brotherhood forged through service and competition. As the reigning City Series Champions, these players bring the same intensity and pride to the diamond that they bring to defending our country.

    Focused. Physical. Relentless.

    When the Ice Men take the field, they play with precision, purpose, and the will to win. Expect sharp defense, commanding presence, and a team that never backs down.

  • Resilient. Ruthless. Always in the Hunt.

    As the longest-standing team in the Fairbanks Adult Amateur Baseball League, the Pirates have been chasing—and winning—titles since the 1990s. With a legacy rooted in grit, talent, and tenacity, this franchise is known for producing playoff-caliber squads year after year.

    They’re loud when it counts, loose in the dugout, and lethal at the plate.

    Whether it’s May or August, the Pirates are always a threat to take the crown.

  • Hard-Nosed. Hustling. Built for the Long Game.

    Spruce brings an old-school edge to the Fairbanks men’s wood bat league, earning every win with defense, discipline, and relentless hustle. Known for aggressive baserunning and grinding out close games, this team thrives on the fundamentals.

    They don’t play for flash—they play to win.

    When you face Spruce, expect pressure from the first pitch to the last out.

  • The up and coming talent! Once this squad is finished with their travel schedule, they will join the FAABL season at the start of July.
