Team History[edit]
The Biloxi Shuckers, of the Double-A Southern League and briefly in Double-A South, had to wait nearly half of their first season to bring baseball back to the Gulf Coast for the first time since 1908. The Milwaukee Brewers farmhands play their home games at MGM Park in Biloxi, MS.
Construction problems were the debut-delaying culprit. In the June 6, 2015, MGM debut, Biloxi took 14 frames to beat the Mobile BayBears, 5-4.
Despite such distractions, the Shuckers won their division's first-half title and had the league's best regular-season record that year.
Distractions have kept pace with winning; attendance has never met projections and control of field naming rights and non-Shucker events have generated disputes.
In 2025, the Shuckers became the latest team to have an animal urging them on to win in desperate circumstances. After the "Rally Monkey" and others of its ilk, the Rally Parrot made its appearance at a game on August 14th when a fan brought her pet parrot to the game, something that did not go unnoticed by other fans, especially after the Shuckers made it back from trailing 8-3 against the Columbus Clingstones, and ended up 14-8 winners. A legend was born.
