Virginia Beach Neptunes
The Virginia Beach Neptunes is an American professional baseball team based in Virginia Beach, Virginia. They are a member of the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball, which is not affiliated with Major League Baseball. Beginning in the 2016 season, the Neptunes will play their home games at Wheeler Field.[1] They will be the second professional baseball club in the Hampton Roads region after the Norfolk Tides of the International League (AAA).
The "Neptunes" name alludes to Virginia Beach's location on the Atlantic Ocean, which was commemorated by a 34 feet (10 m) bronze statue of Neptune on September 30, 2005. It was sculpted by Paul DiPasquale and established by the city's annual Neptune Festival with private donations.[2]
