Our organization is derived of players from and towns surrounding the Joliet area. Although, we all come from different backgrounds there is one thing that brings us all together, baseball. Steel City Baseball’s  goals include building lifelong lasting bonds between teammates, coaches and the community. While most of the focus will be baseball related, we aim to help raise great men off the field.  Our organization intends to compete with the rest, while having fun doing so. 

Our Town

Joliet known as “J-Town,” is Illinois’ fastest growing city and one of the fastest growing in the Chicago metro area. Joliet was once a true blue collar city, with iron work sites heavily present. Steel fabrication echoed through the streets. Our name, colors and logos represent a piece of Joliet’s history. We wanted to capture what Jolie

Joliet known as “J-Town,” is Illinois’ fastest growing city and one of the fastest growing in the Chicago metro area. Joliet was once a true blue collar city, with iron work sites heavily present. Steel fabrication echoed through the streets. Our name, colors and logos represent a piece of Joliet’s history. We wanted to capture what Joliet is, also including the iconic hat and shades that the Blue Brothers wore. It’s a busy place that offers something for just about everyone with its family-friendly atmosphere, thriving downtown district rich in history. Welcome home.

Founders

JoJo Romero and Jeremy Ernst

Our passion for baseball runs deep, and we are dedicated to sharing that passion with our players and families. We first connected playing high school ball in the late 2000s with Joliet Township. We have a true love for the game and also strive to be mentors. After 15+ years, we reconnected and went head first into coaching and developing great ball players. Our vision for each kid’s future is identical and we want to develop a player first organization to help them succeed both on and off the baseball field. Our goals are to help your player become a great baseball teammate and a great person in general!
