About the Gwinnett Stripers and Iowa Cubs
The Gwinnett Stripers are the Triple-A affiliate of the Atlanta Braves, making them one of the most closely watched minor league franchises in the country.

For Braves fans, a Stripers game is an inside look at Atlanta's future — the next generation of players who will wear the tomahawk on the biggest stage.
The Iowa Cubs, affiliated with the Chicago Cubs, carry their own storied legacy. Based in Des Moines and playing at Principal Park, Iowa has long been one of the most respected Triple-A programs in baseball.

The Stripers have built a passionate fanbase across Gwinnett County and the broader Atlanta metro. Their connection to the Braves creates an organic pipeline of fan investment — when you watch a Striper break out, you're watching a future Brave earn his stripes. That storyline makes every home game feel meaningful, and the Gwinnett Stripers vs. Iowa Cubs game on July 26 carries all of that weight.
