Our little league adopted professional sports team names and unlike our namesake, we were a juggernaut; winning the championship two of the three years I played.

It was a heating and air company in my hometown. I also played for Connie's Glass and First Federal in other years.

6. My first one was red. My final one was green...
That was the 2nd year. Somebody (unprovoked) threw a baseball at me and it hit the back of my head, hard. (ouch) Wow, I hadn't remembered that for a very long time. Glad I just did.

yes, after the MLB team. We won the championship in my one and only year playing. hehe, sadly i can't say i contributed much aside from when i walked and scored runs off of other teammates' hits.

13. No Little League here...
but my YMCA basketball team was the Diamonds after the Dallas Diamonds of the old women's pro basketball league from back in the 70s. :) We were light blue with dark blue trim.

This was a softball team in Walnut Creek, Calif. and they sponsored a team every summer. Yes, it was a funeral home.
