Hartford Double-A team officially named Yard Goats
You have done well, Internet. You have done well.
We are proud to announce there is going to be a minor league team named the Hartford Yard Goats. We did it.
The announcement was made via a live stream from a high school gym that included:

- goats
- people distracted by goats
- other goats

This is one of the greatest day in the history of baseball-goat crossroads. They say that “yard goats” is old railroad slang, but we know they’re really talking about goats. In a yard.
Just like that. I am so proud of you, Internet. Please vote in the important poll.
