Baseball
The Carl Sandburg College baseball program has won seven Arrowhead Conference championships in its history. Sandburg's first baseball coach was Bill Tuttle, a former major leaguer, and three former Chargers — Jason Hardebeck, Greg Smock and Larry Whitford — have gone on to sign minor league baseball contracts. Home games are played at the William "Bill" Hungate Baseball/Softball Complex on the Main Campus in Galesburg.

Josh Foreman
Head Coach
Josh Foreman was named the Chargers' coach in August 2018 after first joining Sandburg as an assistant during the 2017-18 season.
In Foreman's first season at the helm, the Chargers posted a 27-13-1 overall record and 17-1 in the Arrowhead Conference as Sandburg won back-to-back conference titles for the first time in program history.
In 2018, Foreman's lone season as an assistant, the Chargers finished 29-14 overall and won their first Arrowhead Conference championship since 2008.
A Brimfield High School graduate, Foreman began his collegiate career at Waubonsee from 2002-03, earning Second-Team All-Region IV honors in both of his seasons with the Chiefs. He also set the Waubonsee record for career RBIs with 81.
Foreman then transferred to Murray State, an NCAA Division I program, and played in 63 games for the Racers from 2004-05.
