Chandler-based pitcher living baseball dreams with Savannah Bananas

Former minor leaguer Austin Krzeminski playing in sold-out MLB stadiums

The dream is the same for any young baseball player  — to make it to the big leagues. Few do. But even fewer reach the next best thing.

Right-handed pitcher Austin Krzeminski has given hopefuls a new goal should they miss that shot at the majors. The 27-year-old still imagines that break will find him, but in the meantime he’s playing baseball inside sold-out Major League stadiums like Minute Maid Park (home of the Astros), Citizens Bank Park (Phillies), and the iconic Fenway Park in Boston.

All told he’s already played before 1 million fans this year, and the waitlist for tickets for the 2025 season is 3 million strong.
