The Stockton Ports are a team in the California League. They are an affiliate of the Oakland Athletics. They are located in Stockton, California, and play their home games at Banner Island Ballpark, built in 2005.

Splash, the Ports’ mascot, is a tall, red, furry delta creature with blue spaghetti-like hair who lives at the ballpark and came from the delta that runs behind the outfield of Banner Island Ballpark. When he’s not cheering on the Ports atop the dugout, he can be found throwing t-shirts to fans, practicing his favorite dance moves, and reading his favorite books.

Ever since Splash was a young fur ball, this big-boned, big-bellied, bundle of fun has enjoyed being the center of attention. The Ports can't find a scale to weigh Splash, nor do we know when Splash was born. But we do know that Splash is full of fun, mayhem and has a pure love for taunting the visiting team.

Splash's electric red fur will surely stick out in crowds and Splash can't wait to bring that special brand of fun to the Ports new home at Banner Island on a nightly basis.

Splash is a big kid and likes to "splash" about in the Deep Water Channel and scarf down the Deep Fried Asparagus at Banner Island Ballpark.

Splash enjoys stealing your food when you are not looking, welcoming young fans into the ballpark and leading the cheers for Stockton's team. Splash is always ready for practical jokes and always has a few helpful tips for the umpires.

Sacramento River Cats

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
