The Roller Derby Girls taking on that name makes the most amount of sense.
Yeah, the thing with baseball is how far the professional teams are to kids (well, & for every other sport). I think that's one of the reasons why my dad gets so flummoxed that his grandkids don't adore it. He grew up in the 1940s & '50s when it was one of the most solid forms of entertainment & there were stickball games all over the place, all the time.

Makes AAA teams that much more appealing.
