The Portland Pickles: Brine and Baseball, But No Belonging to MLB?
Ah, the Portland Pickles. A team name that tickles the funny bone and a team that delivers summer fun by the barrelful (pun intended). But here's the dill: a lot of folks get confused about who these guys belong to. Are they some secret farm team for a Major League Baseball powerhouse?
Hold your horses (or should we say, hold your hot dogs?) The Portland Pickles are not affiliated with any MLB team. They're part of a whole different ball game (pun again, we're unstoppable).

Independent and Pickled: The West Coast League
The Pickles proudly swing for the fences in the West Coast League, an independent summer collegiate wood-bat league. That means you'll see some of the brightest young baseball stars honing their skills, all while enjoying the quirky charm that only the Pickles can provide.
Think of it this way: The West Coast League is like the craft brewery scene of baseball. Independent, unique, and brewing up something special (except instead of IPAs, it's memories and strikeouts).

- Alan Miller: This entrepreneur brings his marketing magic to the table, ensuring the Pickles stay on everyone's radar.
- Jon Ryan: Yes, that Jon Ryan, formerly of the Seattle Seahawks! He brings his athletic spirit and love for the game to the ownership table.
So, there you have it. The Portland Pickles are an independent team with a unique ownership group, all pickling together to create a one-of-a-kind baseball experience.
