Broadcaster Chris Harris, part of the team since 2018, expressed gratitude for the opportunity to share stories about the community and players. Though the Braves are relocating to Georgia, new opportunities are expected at Trustmark Park, ensuring continued entertainment for fans in the area. The tradition of baseball in Pearl will live on despite the change.
After 20 years in Pearl, the Mississippi Braves are saying goodbye to the state, leaving behind a lasting impact on many in the community.

SUMMARY: WD7 News reports on the Pine Belt’s pleasant weather, which is expected to change soon. Recent days have offered comfort with low humidity and clear skies, but a tropical storm brewing in the Gulf may bring rain and wind early in the week. The National Hurricane Center indicates that the storm could intensify to a strong tropical storm or minimal hurricane as it approaches the Gulf Coast, particularly affecting southeastern Texas and south-central Louisiana. Residents should prepare for possible rainfall that could range from 2 to 3 inches, depending on the storm’s path. Enjoy the sunshine while it lasts!
