Eagles Praha is a baseball team from Prague, Czech Republic. The team plays in the Czech Extraliga.

History

The club was established on 3 February 1981 in the Krč district of Prague as TJ Sokol Praha 4 – Krč. In 1984, the club built its current facilities in a piece of land in Krč. In 1991, the team changed its name to Sokol Krč. In 2000, the organization signed a sponsorship agreement with Altron and changed its name to Krč Altron in 2001. For the 2009 season, the club dropped the sponsor title and changed its name to Eagles Praha.[1]

The Eagles have never won the Extraliga title, but were runners-up in 1999, 2004, 2012 and 2019.[2]

Four Eagles' players were called to represent Czech Republic at the 2023 World Baseball Classic qualification: pitcher Tomáš Duffek, catcher Martin Červenka, infielder Petr Zýma and outfielder Marek Chlup.[3]
