Pajaritos de Norfolk
(3 items)
With the Tides being the Triple-A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles, the team name of Pajaritos - Spanish for "Baby Birds" - is a natural fit. Pajaritos de la suerte - "little birds of luck" - are also a traditional Hispanic custom in which a trained bird will select a fortune for people curious enough to inquire about their future. These little birds are fearless and well-trained, and they serve as a symbol of prosperity and good fortune to everyone who crosses their paths. When the "Copa de la Diversión" event series comes to Harbor Park, the Pajaritos de Norfolk will play with the same skillful determination of their namesakes - and maybe even benefit from a little bit of luck.
