Brix and Brooklyn are the mascots or the Oklahoma City Dodgers, a member of the Pacific Coast League. They are the Triple-A affiliate of the Los Angeles Dodgers, and are located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. They play their home games at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark which opened in 1998 in the city's Bricktown entertainment district.

Born and raised on the wide, open prairies of Oklahoma, Brooklyn and Brix grew up like most cattle dog pups do: working the range. Although their days were spent roving the trail, they both always had a nose for baseball.

During their formative years, Brooklyn and Brix would pass the days listening to ballgames on the radio, and the cowpokes would tell "tails" about baseball greats like Mickey Mantle, Johnny Bench, and Warren Spahn. They dreamed that they'd one day leave the "ruff" and tumble cattle-driving life behind and leave their mark on the game.

One day, the siblings "herd" that the Oklahoma City Dodgers were holding an open competition to find the next mascots to lead the team. It was almost too good to be true. Brooklyn and Brix hung up their lassos and boots, and headed to the city to fetch their destiny.

When Brooklyn and Brix arrived at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark, the club was immediately "bow-wowed" by the spunky attitude, loveable nature, and endless energy the pups displayed. They were hired on the spot to be the official mascots of the OKC Dodgers.

Nowadays, when they're not busy chasing their own tails, you'll find Brooklyn and Brix rounding up fans to cheer on the OKC Dodgers, wolfing down Dodger Dogs, and giving their all for the team.

The River Cats play their home games at Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento, California, and are part of the Pacific Coast League. On a cold blustery night 20 winters ago, strange sounds began echoing through the air at the Sutter Health Park (formerly Raley Field) construction site. The odd noises led members of the River Cats’ front office down a path leading underneath Tower Bridge. There, on the bank of the river, was the oddest sight: a distraught and very large cat sitting on a rock. The River Cats’ staff cautiously approached the imposing, yet welcoming feline and asked if they could be of assistance. The cat turned with a large, comforting smile. “Hello, my name is Dinger, and I live here on the river,” he said. “I hope I didn’t scare you. I really love having fun and entertaining people.” When the staff returned to the office, D
