SPEARFISH SASQUATCH AND INDEPENDENCE LEAGUE BASEBALL RELEASE 2025 SCHEDULE ( Spearfish, SD) – Today, Independence League Baseball and the Spearfish Sasquatch announced the release of the 2025 schedule. The schedule features a 50 game regular season schedule in which member teams will vie for a chance to compete in the five game championship series to end the summer. “The day the schedule is released is a very exciting day for any team”, said Eric Schmidt – Owner/GM of the Spearfish Sasquatch. “We look forward to this day and the opportunity to finally share our summer plans with all our fans. There is a ton of work put in behind the scenes between the league and the teams to make this all come together. We all share ballparks with other organizations, so at times it can be a challenge to navigate around others schedules throughout the league and make all the pieces fit perfectly into this giant puzzle.” The Sasquatch regular season schedule will feature 50 games (32 home, 18 away). “While the schedule release is a big day, that’s when a lot of the work really begins”, said Schmidt. “Now we can kick our planning process into high gear by working on our theme nights, promotions, and prepare to schedule in-game entertainment. We’re looking to have 3-4 fireworks nights, playing an exhibition game against the Spearfish Post 164 American Legion Baseball Club, bringing back the very popular Free Jersey Night, in addition to a couple other special evenings this summer!” With teams located throughout the Great Plains and Rocky Mountain Regions, Independence League Baseball is an elite summer collegiate wood bat baseball league which aims to provide affordable, family-friendly entertainment while enhancing the quality of life in its member communities by providing the tools and experience needed to optimize the collegiate players’ development as they pursue their dreams to play baseball professionally. The players stay with host families from the local communities. Host families are a very integral part of the Spearfish Sasquatch and these host family relationships provide a lifetime of memories for both the host families and the players.
