I love old minor league baseball nicknames. In 1906 the Fresno Raisin Eaters had one forgettable season. According to Wikipedia, in 2006 the Fresno Grizzlies payed tribute to the old nickname by wearing "Raisin Eaters" jerseys on Wednesday games.

Also at Wikipedia, you can see the old-fashioned logo that they designed in 2006 (make sure to click on the image to see a larger version). You will notice that I have isolated the logo from the surrounding text and changed the coloration. Where theirs was a pale yellow and faded red, mine adopts Raisin Bran colors: yellow and purple.

This is one of my favorite logos. It just makes me happy.
