For two seasons in 2000 and 2001, the Low-A Stockton Ports rebranded as the Mudville Nine, staking their town's claim to being the "Mudville" featured in the 1888 poem "Casey at the Bat." This episode features San Diego Padres Vice President Tom Seidler, who was instrumental in the team, and designer Dan Simon, who created the logo (and who is back with another Studio Simon Stumper).

Also, stay tuned for a special reading Casey at the Bat by Anna Ditommaso, Ed Rivera, Pat Larson, Amy Burnett, Eric Proffitt, and Johnny Bowlin.
