How much money does it cost to own a independent baseball team and where can you join a leage.?

Answer 1

The costs vary from town to town. Some teams are owned by the actual MLB franchise that they play for, like the Tampa Yankees which are owned by Steinbrenner.

To join a league, simply contact the league's front office that you are interested in, and ask them what the requirements are.

There are several independant leagues around the country...most are in the midwest. You should be able to find them:
