Description

Here is a red, white and blue commemorative pin of the Tacoma Twins that was presented to the team in 1975. The trophy was awarded to Jim Zarelli and Stan Naccarato. Zarelli was the president of the team and Naccarato was the vice president and general manager of the Tacoma Twins. From 1972 to 1977, they were the Tacoma Twins. Since 1960 when Cheney Stadium was first built, Tacoma's minor league teams have played for a number of major league affiliates.
