Moose Jaw Miller Express 2025 Preview

They were so very close.

Not only did the Moose Jaw Miller Express push the Okotoks Dawgs to a winner-take-all Game 3 of the Western Canadian Baseball League (WCBL) championship series, the underdog squad scored a pair of late runs to even the score entering the ninth inning of that contest.

It took the home-run heroics of hometown hero Connor Crowson in the bottom of the ninth to break the tie, deliver the Dawgs a 6-5 victory, and secure a three-peat title for Okotoks.

The Miller Express were right there, when few expected them to be.

So, what’s next for Moose Jaw?

Antlers Up

Nate Mensik is nicknamed “Mr. Moose Jaw.”

Austin Gurney is the Miller Express MVP.

Together, they form a powerful duo that head coach Eric Marriott is leaning on heading into the 2024 championship series.

7th Inning Stretch: Bobby Pokorney

Bobby Pokorney has become a bit of a cult hero in Moose Jaw.

Broadcaster Rod Pedersen called the Miller Express infielder “the Ron Duguay of minor league baseball” with his long hair and rock star-like persona.

We chatted with the Margate, Florida native about the attention he’s been getting in the latest 7th Inning Stretch.

Houston Has No Problem

Melville’s Nathan Houston has made a name for himself in his freshman season with Arizona Western College.

The 18-year-old infielder has been named Second-Team All-Region and Second-Team All-Conference.

It’s an experience he will bring to the Moose Jaw Miller Express this summer.

Moose Jaw Miller Express 2024 Season Preview

The Moose Jaw Miller Express are coming off back-to-back summers that have seen the team emerge as a force to be reckoned with.

In that time, the Western Canadian Baseball League (WCBL) East Division champs have won 71 regular-season games and lost only 41 contests.

Despite that success, the Miller Express have not been able to claim a WCBL title. The Millers and their fans hope this year will be different and the club will be able to convert regular-season prowess into the ultimate WCBL playoff reward – a nameplate on the Harry Hallis Memorial Trophy.
