Firefighters Roster: Players, Positions & Profiles

Firefighters roster at a glance

Current Firefighters players

The directory below is the quickest way to browse Firefighters player profiles currently listed. Where supplied by the roster information, a card can show a player’s position, jersey number, hometown and a profile link. A roster is time-sensitive, so use the official references near the bottom of this page when you need to confirm a late addition, role change or availability update.

How to read Firefighters positions

The Firefighters use familiar baseball position abbreviations alongside flexible Banana Ball roles. C means catcher, 1B first base, 3B third base, SS shortstop, INF infield, OF outfield and UTL utility. Pitchers may be labeled RHP or LHP for right- or left-handed pitcher.

You may also see Banana Ball-specific labels such as DR. The page preserves the exact current roster label instead of forcing every player into a traditional baseball box. A roster label describes the team’s current listing; it does not guarantee the exact position a player will use in every game.

That list is only an orientation tool. The directory above is better for browsing the full set of profiles available here, while the official Firefighters roster should be used for the latest confirmation.

Pitchers and flexible roles

The Firefighters roster includes several listed pitchers, including Austin Temple, Ben Dum III, Jared Donalson, Zack Phillips, Ga’Von Wray, Blake Morgan, Bradford Webb, Johnny Hummel, Brian Trepanier, Christian Dearman and Marshall Shill in the current-season roster.

A roster page should not turn that group into an invented rotation or bullpen hierarchy. Banana Ball game assignments can change by matchup, city and availability. If you are going to a game mainly to see one pitcher, check the team’s current game-day information rather than treating a roster listing as a promise that the player will appear.

Firefighters head coach and team identity

Val Perez is listed as the Firefighters head coach on the current official roster. Coaching roles are kept separate from the player directory so staff names are not counted as active-player roster spots.

Coaches and team personalities should be kept separate from the active-player count. The official Firefighters roster identifies coaching roles directly, so those names should not be treated as ordinary player spots or projected batting-order positions.

Roster vs starting lineup

The roster is the broader group attached to the Firefighters. The starting lineup and batting order describe who starts a specific game and where hitters appear in that order. Those are different questions. A player can be on the roster without starting every matchup, and a utility player may be used differently from one city or opponent to the next.

This distinction matters even more in Banana Ball because game strategy can change around inning scoring, the Golden Batter rule and the two-hour format. Use this page to answer “Who is on the Firefighters?” and the Firefighters schedule plus game-day information to answer who is expected to appear in a particular matchup.

Jersey numbers and hometowns

Jersey numbers help fans connect names with the players they see on the field. Hometowns add background context and can help distinguish people with similar names, but they are not performance statistics and should not be treated as proof of where someone currently lives. If a field is missing or has changed, leaving it unclaimed is better than filling it with a guess.

The Firefighters also show why Banana Ball numbers and identifiers do not always look like a conventional baseball roster. Marshall Shill is represented with a fire emoji identifier on the current roster. Rather than “correcting” unusual source values into something more traditional, the roster preserves the team’s distinctive presentation when the source clearly supports it.

Firefighters roster and current availability

Being listed on a season roster does not guarantee a player will appear in every city. Injuries, travel groups, lineup choices and other team decisions can affect game-day availability. The roster is therefore best used as a directory of current team names and roles, not as a guarantee of an appearance at a particular event.

If your main goal is to see a specific player, pair this roster with the Firefighters schedule and recheck official team communication close to the event. For what actually happened after a game, use the results page rather than relying on a preseason or season-long roster list.

Follow the Firefighters beyond the roster

When should you recheck the Firefighters roster?

Recheck the official sources when you are looking for a newly added player, a changed jersey number, a player whose availability has changed or a coaching update. The official Firefighters roster is the primary current-season check, while the team page provides broader Firefighters context. This page can stay useful at the same URL as individual roster facts are corrected over time.
