Reader Matthew Klekner sent us the news on Twitter that the Fresno Grizzlies have created a new alternate cap, Fresno Tacos, to support their minor league baseball team. The team will have taco night at the ballpark on August 6th, and name themselves the Tacos with special alternate uniforms and caps.
The Grizzles are the AAA affiliate of the Houston Astros-- which is important as until 2014 they were the minor league stepping stone for our hated rivals to the North. That said, tacos really do bring people together regardless of what baseball team you follow, and Fresno does have a great taco scene, one of the best in California. It's also the home of photographer Tony Stamolis, who created the essential book T&T&A (NSFW).
The fitted cap is available for pre-order now and is made by New Era. No word on if the jerseys will ever be for sale. Buy Here.
