Description

Aaron Miles, an Antioch native who spent parts of nine seasons in the majors, was inspired to pursue a career in baseball during his childhood when he watched legends such as Rickey Henderson and Dave Stewart at the Coliseum.


These days, he's trying to create memories for kids across the East Bay as manager of the Oakland Ballers, an independent league team that played its first game in 2024.


Miles joined Section 415 and discussed how the Ballers have engaged the Oakland community, how the team recruited so many local players, and what the next steps in the evolution of the young franchise look like.
