Minor League Baseball fans know that baseball season means it’s time for Copa de la Diversión (or “Fun Cup”) — a season-long event series designed to “connect teams with their local US Hispanic communities.”
For special games and events, the RiverDogs transform into Los Perros Santos — a play on “Holy City.” (The logo even has a Día de los Muertos art-style.)
Check out the special Copa de la Diversión uniform.

Copa de la Diversión began in 2017 with four teams in Charlotte, Durham, Visalia, and Las Vegas. The next year, it expanded to 33 teams and added a little competition. The 2018 winner? The attendance-record-breaking Mariachis de Nuevo México in Albuquerque.
This year, 90 MiLB teams will compete to be crowned campeón based on ballpark experience, community engagement, and philanthropic impact.
Help Los Perros Santos win by cheering them on at one of these three upcoming games featuring music, Spanish-speaking announcers, and food specials:
