The Baseball Bucket List Podcast

4. Ice Cream Helmets, Logos, and Team Name History with Paul Caputo


Listen Later

Joining us on this episode of The Baseball Bucket List Podcast is Paul Caputo — most well known on Twitter for his collection of 300+ mini ice cream helmets. Paul is also the “go to guy” for anything you want to know about the history of minor league team names (he literally wrote the book on it).

We cover how the Hartford Yard Goats and Albuquerque Isotopes got their names, as well as the design process behind one of the most iconic logos in the MiLB — The Portland Sea Dogs.

Paul recounts his favorite baseball memories, including throwing a first pitch, seeing a no-hitter, and a single season Phillies record being set in person.
