The @SJGiants unveiled a mural honoring Cal League legend, Chris Lampe. A SJ Giants minority owner from 1988-07 & the Cal League Historian from 2009-22. He was an ambassador for the Cal League & preserved it’s history. He was a great friend & will truly be missed!

#Angels prospect Nelson Rada stole his 50th base of the season tonight for @66ersBaseball vs Visalia. The CF just turned 18-years-old on Wednesday and leads the California League in that category.

Congratulations to the Cal League Pitcher of the week, Ricardo Yan! He threw a career-high 7 innings allowing just 1 run off 1 hit and 2 walks. He also struck out 9.

Yan and Jack Hurley have been promoted to Hillsboro today! Good luck, boys!

Chris Lampe was a great friend and a great advocate for keeping the history of the California League alive. He will truly be missed.

Chris Lampe, the Historian of the California League, passed this week from cardiac arrest. He was a wonderful man and put his heart and soul into the book. This year he was informed that baseball did not want the book anymore. The minors have no current record-keeping apparatus.

@journalist_not @Storm_Baseball @stocktonports @HDMavs @ModestoNuts @RCQuakes @SJGiants @JetHawks @BakoBlaze @VisaliaRawhide @66ersBaseball Great guesses! CVR is Central Valley Rockies. Stampede came a bit later, that hat is the original SB Spirit. The B is Bakersfield Dodgers. Salinas Spurs and Palm Springs Angels are the team names. Well done!

@baseballgods16 @Storm_Baseball @stocktonports @HDMavs @ModestoNuts @RCQuakes @SJGiants @JetHawks @BakoBlaze @VisaliaRawhide @66ersBaseball Close! It’s the Bakersfield Dodgers, who used the Brooklyn Dodgers as their inspiration.

In celebration of the @Storm_Baseball 2022 Cal League Championship, we look back at their first championship. In just their third year of existence, the Lake Elsinore Storm capture the Call League title in 1996.
