The Kokomo Creek Chubs are a collegiate summer league baseball team of the Prospect League. They are located in Kokomo, Indiana, and play their home games at Kokomo Municipal Stadium. The Creek Chubs and other collegiate summer leagues and teams exist to give top college players a professional-like experience without affecting NCAA eligibility.
The Creek Chubs play in the Prospect League's Eastern Conference – Northeast Division along with the Champion City Half Trax, Chillicothe Paints, Johnstown Mill Rats, and Lafayette Aviators.[5]
Kokomo's previous team in the Prospect League, the Kokomo Jackrabbits, were members of the league from the franchise's inception in 2014 to 2019, when they left to join the Northwoods League, which they were members of from 2020 to 2024. The Jackrabbits dissolved after the 2024 season due to a legal battle between the city of Kokomo and the ownership of the Jackrabbits, Kokomo Baseball LLC, which ultimately ended with a judge ruling in favor of the city of Kokomo.[6][7][8] The ruling officially brought an end to the Jackrabbits.[9]
On October 7, 2025, the Prospect League announced that a new franchise had been awarded to the city of Kokomo, with Bullpen Tournaments, Prep Baseball & former MLB pitcher Joe Thatcher as the owners of the team.[10][11][12]
On October 31, 2025, the team was officially named the Creek Chubs.[13][14][15]
