After 27 seasons in the New York-Penn League as a minor-league affiliate of the Montreal Expos/Washington Nationals (1994-2010) and Oakland Athletics (2011-20), the 2021 Lake Monsters joined the eight-team FCBL in February and their 68-game regular season will stretch from May 26th to August 13th.
The Lake Monsters join the Norwich Sea Unicorns (formerly NYPL division foe Connecticut Tigers) in their first FCBL seasons, along with returnees Brockton (MA) Sox, Nashua (NH) Silver Knights, New Britian (CT) Bees, Pittsfield (MA) Suns, Westfield (MA) Starfires and Worcester (MA) Bravehearts.
Following Vermont’s season opener at Centennial on May 26th and then a pair of road games, the Lake Monsters will host a season-long seven-game homestand May 29th-June 4th before playing just seven more games at Centennial thru the end of June (8th-9th, 12th, 19th-20th and 24th-25th).
Vermont will then play 17 of its 25 July games at home, including 10 straight games at Centennial over a 14-day stretch July 8-21 (includes 3-day All-Star Break and another off day). The regular-season will conclude with six home games in seven days starting August 7th and finishing with the finale Friday, August 13th.
