Welcome to our past-time...

As we resume operations after being closed due to COVID, our hours have changed. If you have any questions, please contact us at ncbaseballmuseum@myglnc.com, or on Twitter at @ncbaseballmuseu.

Update: December 5, 2024

With the holidays upon us, we want to thank our volunteers who come out and open the museum for the public.  We will be adjusting our hours for the months of December and January. We will be closed on Thursdays and Fridays during these months, and resume our normal schedule in late January.

We will remain open on Saturdays and Sundays as normal, and we do remain open for groups by appointment.  If your church, senior, civic, other organization, or family/group of friends would like a tour, please feel free to email us at ncbaseballmuseum@myglnc.com. We’ll be happy to give you a tour!

Located at Historic Fleming Stadium, the museum showcases exhibits and memorabilia from across the history of baseball as it relates to the state.  The museum recognizes the North Carolinians who played in the major leagues, as well as baseball at every level played within the state.

Our Major Leaguers gallery is highlighted by our seven North Carolinians who made it to Cooperstown and the Baseball Hall of Fame – Luke Appling, Rick Ferrell, Jim “Catfish” Hunter, Gaylord Perry, Buck Leonard, Enos Slaughter, and Hoyt Wilheim.

The museum is part of Historic Fleming Stadium, whose field has borne witness to the play of Rod Carew, Richie Ashburn, Robin Roberts, Ted Williams, Josh Gibson, and Buck Leonard.

The museum features a “Walk of Fame”, a collection of bricks to show memory, honor and recognition to players, coaches, contributors to the sport, their fans, and their families.

The museum is open year round and is run by volunteers.  For more information call (252) 296-3048 or email us at ncbaseballmuseum@myglnc.com.
