Players on the 1964 Tacoma Giants baseball team autographed this baseball in dark blue ink. Charlie Fox managed this Tacoma Giants team. Gerald Thomas, who grew up in Tacoma, was a starting pitcher for the Giants that year. The 6-foot-3, 220-pound pitcher had a 16-12 record with a 3.58 ERA. The 1961 Tacoma Giants team finished with an impressive 97-57 record and were led by Gaylor Perry, a future Major League start. From 1960 to 1965, they were the Tacoma Giants. But in 1965, the San Francisco Giants owner Horace Stoneham moved his Triple-A affiliate from Tacoma to Phoenix. Then from 1966 to 1971, Tacoma's minor team changed affiliations to the Chicago Cubs and they were the Tacoma Cubs.Lexicon
