The St. Louis Men’s Baseball League was started in 1996 as a non-profit recreational organization dedicated to providing an opportunity for men over 18 years of age in the St. Louis Metropolitan area to play real baseball in a competitive, professionally-run environment, and enjoy the camaraderie of other serious-minded amateur players from all walks of life, economic statuses and ethnic backgrounds.  The only requirement is that they love the game of baseball.

Although the St. Louis Men’s Baseball League was initially affiliated with MSBL National the league is now independent of any any national organization. However, local teams still participate and travel to a number of national tournaments each year throughout the country.
