The Kalamazoo Growlers are a baseball team based in Kalamazoo, Michigan that plays in the Northwoods League, a collegiate summer baseball league. The Growlers were founded in 2013 and played their first game on May 30, 2014. The team plays its home games at Homer Stryker Field. ==History== On June 3, 2013, the Kalamazoo City Commission approved a contract with Kalamazoo Baseball, LLC to bring a team to the city. Kalamazoo had been without a baseball team since the Kalamazoo Kings of the Frontier League disbanded in 2011. The contract stipulated that the Northwoods League would pay expenses associated with the team's home games, practice and the maintenance of Homer Stryker Field.〔Monacelli, Emily, ("Northwoods League president 'confident' baseball team will play at Homer Stryker Field in Kalamazoo in 2014" ) ""MLive/Kalamazoo Gazette."" Retrieved May 26, 2014.〕 On Nov. 15 of that year, the team was formally introduced as the Kalamazoo Growlers, a tribute to the city's brewing tradition and the black bears that call Michigan home. Former Ohio head baseball coach Joe Carbone was introduced as the team's manager and Jared Kujawa and Brett Sunde of Western Michigan University were introduced as players.〔Fishell, Aaron, ("Kalamazoo Growlers bring baseball back to Homer Stryker Field" ) ""MLive/Kalamazoo Gazette."" Retrieved May 26, 2014.〕 The mascot of the team is an anthropomorphic black bear named Porter. He was named after a dark style of beer, paying homage to Kalamazoo's microbreweries. The original mascot was a bear of the same type named Barlee, but the team lost the rights of the name to the Hillsboro Hopps of the North West League.〔http://northwoodsleague.com/kalamazoo-growlers/2014/12/15/growlers-lose-barlee-to-milb-launch-new-name-contest/ ""Northwoods.com"" retrieved June 2015.〕
