Chasing Baseball: On the Road Again with the RedPocket Mobiles

Episode 2: Opening Day

Opening day. 96 games. No home field.

The RedPocket Mobiles are the only team in professional baseball that plays every game on the road, and for the men who made the roster, this is what they've been waiting for.

Episode 2 of Chasing Baseball follows the RedPocket Mobiles into their first games of the 2026 Pioneer League season in Modesto, California. Veteran Gianni Horvat has heard his whole career that he's too small, too slow, not enough. The rookie pitchers are stepping in front of their first hostile crowds. And a brutal loss in game one isn't exactly the start anyone had in mind.

But with 95 games still to go, the Mobiles have a simple philosophy: no one shuts out the Pocket.

This is what independent professional baseball actually looks like. Cowbells, drunk hecklers, a bus, and a dream that won't quit.

On The Road Again: A Season with the RedPocket Mobiles follows one of the most unconventional experiments in professional sports: a full season without a home stadium, hometown fanbase, or place to call home.

Led by former MLB All-Star Dmitri Young, former Major League pitcher Ray King, and Emmy Award-winning broadcaster Amy Gutierrez, the Mobiles feature overlooked prospects, international talent, and players pursuing one more opportunity in professional baseball.

From late-night bus rides and roadside diners to visitor clubhouses across the Pioneer Baseball League, the series captures the grind, humor, brotherhood, and long-shot pursuit of a baseball dream.

Powered by RedPocket Mobile, the journey follows a team built on opportunity and perseverance, proving that as long as you have a uniform, you still have a chance.
