The Pelicans — the Chicago Cubs' Single-A club — sell something bigger than baseball, and their president says so in this page's lead film: most people at a Pelicans game don't think of themselves as baseball fans, and that's the point. The front office jokes a game is a four-hour show interrupted by 18 segments of baseball.

Myrtle Beach Pelicans: Why a Pelicans Game Is More Than Baseball | Myrtle Moments

Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

Team president Ryan Moore makes the Pelicans' pitch in this Myrtle Moments interview, sitting in section 212: most people at a Pelicans game don't think of themselves as baseball fans, and that's the point — the front office jokes a game is a four-hour show interrupted by 18 segments of baseball. He talks Slider the bat dog, the roar he can hear from his office below the stands, the renovated ballpark's new things to see, and watching Jason Heyward and Freddie Freeman start their careers on this field. His closing line is the franchise in one sentence: 'Our currency is paid in smiles.'

Key takeaways
  • Team president Ryan Moore, interviewed in the stands at Pelicans Ballpark
  • The front-office joke: a four-hour show interrupted by 18 segments of baseball
  • Slider the bat dog is part of the act; Heyward and Freeman played here on their way up

2026 Season in Review

Myrtle Beach Pelicans

The Pelicans' own 2026 Season in Review, a narrated team production that doubles as a tour of the renovated ballpark: around-the-clock construction after the 2025 playoff run built The Diamond, a premier event space, plus a new clubhouse and performance center with climate-controlled batting cages, a 2,228-square-foot video board, new seats, hospitality areas and LED ribbon boards — then the season itself, with 16 returning players and four of the Cubs' top-30 prospects on the roster.

Key takeaways
  • The 2026 ballpark renovation: The Diamond event space and a new clubhouse
  • A 2,228-square-foot video board, new seats and LED ribbon boards
  • Narrated season recap produced by the team

The renovated ballpark

The team's own 2026 Season in Review doubles as a tour of the rebuild: around-the-clock construction after the 2025 playoff run produced The Diamond, a premier event space, a new clubhouse and performance center with climate-controlled batting cages, a 2,228-square-foot video board, new seats, hospitality areas and LED ribbon boards. Team president Ryan Moore's interview adds Slider the bat dog and the roar he can hear from his office below the stands.

Game nights

The remaining films are the ballpark's texture, all from the team's own channel (fan film of this park barely exists — an honest gap): the Fourth of July game-night atmosphere in 2026, a post-game recap package from June 2024, the club's community-impact work beyond game nights, and a Mic'd Up session with former big-league World Series champion Ben Zobrist walking the park. Minor-league baseball as the locals produce it: fireworks nights, a bat dog, and a show that happens to include a game.
