The Eugene Larks were a class-D minor league baseball club, based in Eugene, Oregon for the 1950 and 1951 seasons. [1] The team played in the Far West League and was an affiliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1951. The Far West League disbanded after the 1951 season, and so did the Larks. [2]

Eugene had previously been home to the 1904 Class-D Eugene Blues, who played in the Oregon State League. [1] Eugene was without a team until 1955, when the Eugene Emeralds began play. In 2025, the Emeralds celebrated their 70th anniversary in Eugene, though the team plans to move after the 2025 season. [1] [3]
