Feather River Mudcats
December 18, 2019
The Feather River Mudcats were a luckless entry in the independent Western Baseball League that went bankrupt after one season in the small Northern California city of Marysville. The team spent its entire existence embroiled in an intellectual property dispute with the owner of the Carolina Mudcats, a Class AA farm club of the Colorado Rockies in Zebulon, North Carolina. Throughout the 1990 the Carolina Mudcats consistently ranked among the most popular minor league baseball brands in terms of nationwide cap and merchandise sales. The original Mudcats did not take kindly to a rogue indy ball club moving in on their catfish empire.
