The Wild Health Genomes are an American professional baseball team based in Lexington, Kentucky. Founded in 2022, they are a member of the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball, an MLB Partner League.[1][2] The Genomes are owned by the same group as the Lexington Legends and will share Wild Health Field with the Legends.[3]

Following the addition of the Staten Island FerryHawks as the ninth Atlantic League team, the Genomes were created to ensure an even number of teams for the 2022 season.[3] This is the first time that an Atlantic League "filler" team has had a home stadium, as the Road Warriors were a travelling club during their intermittent stints in the league. Barring the transfer or folding of any current teams, the Genomes are expected to be replaced by a new club in Hagerstown, Maryland, for the 2024 season.[4]

The Genomes made history on March 23, 2022 when they drafted catcher Alexis "Scrappy" Hopkins with the eighth pick, the first woman ever drafted for an on-field role in professional baseball.[5]
