The Once and Future 89ers: A Fond Farewell (Kind Of)
For decades, Oklahoma City baseball fans knew exactly who to cheer for: the mighty Oklahoma City 89ers. The name itself conjures images of dusty diamonds and legendary sluggers. But fear not, history buffs! The spirit of the 89ers lives on...in a way.
Dodgers on Deck? Not Quite...
In 2021, things got a little...shaky. The Dodgers became affiliated with the Oklahoma City team, and suddenly, everyone was calling them the "Oklahoma City Dodgers." Here's the thing, though: that name only lasted a season. Can you keep up? Don't worry, we're almost to the answer!
QuickTip: Revisit this post tomorrow — it’ll feel new.
Introducing Your New Favorite Team (Maybe?): The Oklahoma City Baseball Club
