Prune Packers dominated the 2025 summer slate after shift to the Pacific Empire League
The Packers set a blistering standard in 2025, ripping off a 10-game winning streak and standing 22–2 in league play by early July [1][2]. The run was fueled by runaway scorelines, including 18–0, 18–1 and 14–1 wins that turned Rec Park nights into quick work [1][2].At the plate, Jacob French headlined a potent order that kept pressure on from the top of the lineup through the bench [2]. The surge arrived after a structural shift for the program: following dominant years in the California Collegiate League — capped by a championship three‑peat through 2022 — Healdsburg moved into the new Pacific Empire League alongside regional rivals such as Humboldt, Lincoln, Medford, Solano and the West Coast Kings [1][3].Rooted at Art McCaffrey Field in Recreation Park and backed by steady local support, the club’s 2025 coverage even mapped the late‑July and early‑August postseason dates as the summer built toward a title chase [1].
