About the .BASEBALL domain

What is the .BASEBALL domain?

The .baseball is the generic top-level domain (gTLD) dedicated to the sport of baseball, delegated to the root zone on September 29, 2016, and managed by MLB Advanced Media DH, LLC, the digital division of Major League Baseball (MLB) in the United States.

Unlike .mlb, a sibling extension reserved exclusively for the league itself and its authorized entities, .baseball is conceived as a more open generic gTLD, intended to serve the baseball community in a broader sense: minor league teams, player development academies, fan clubs, specialized journalists, and any organization or individual with a genuine connection to the sport. Even so, purchasing a .baseball domain may require completing an application or validation process designed to confirm the buyer's tie to the baseball industry, though without the strict exclusivity that characterizes .mlb. The reference average price for this extension is around $50, though it can vary by registrar.
