ROCHESTER, Mich. – May 19, 2025 – The United Shore Professional Baseball League (USPBL powered by UWM), is proud to announce a new partnership with the Detroit Medical Center (DMC), now the official healthcare provider of a developmental league for Major League Baseball.
This strategic alliance marks a significant step forward in player wellness and sports medicine for the USPBL. As the official healthcare provider, DMC will offer comprehensive medical support to players throughout the season, including athletic training, injury prevention, and access to leading orthopedic and sports medicine specialists.
“We are excited to welcome the Detroit Medical Center as a key partner in supporting the health and performance of our athletes,” said Andy Appleby, Owner, Commissioner and CEO of the USPBL. “DMC’s outstanding reputation for medical excellence ensures our players receive top-tier care both on and off the field.”
Led by DMC Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine physician Dr. Brandon Kakos and DMC orthopedic surgeon Dr. Christopher Cooke, DMC Sports Medicine doctors will be on site to support players at all games. Also, three athletic trainers from DMC Rehabilitation Institute of Michigan, Metro Detroit’s only freestanding rehabilitation hospital and provider of rehabilitative therapy at clinics across the region, will be assisting the team throughout the season.
“The Detroit Medical Center brings decades of experience in orthopedics and sports medicine, as well as a deep commitment to community health, caring for everyone from tiny T-ball players to professional athletes,” Dr. Kakos said. “This aligns perfectly with the USPBL’s mission to develop talent and foster a positive, professional environment for players, fans, and families.
