Good morning, baseball fans!
The San Francisco Giants Triple-A affiliate, the Sacramento River Cats, got themselves into some hot water recently by failing to have anyone on their marketing staff with any common sense.
According to an article written by Alex Simon of SFGate, it appears that the team recently unveiled an alternate identity, the “Gold Diggers,” that they claim was to pay homage to Northern California’s gold rush history.
This makes sense, the gold rush is a large part of Northern California’s history. We even named one of our NFL teams after it.
