Description
The Pacific Coast League, a AAA minor league, has a team in Las Vegas. The team is nicknamed the “51s” after Area 51, the infamous secret military base about an hour north of Las Vegas. Rather than being kidnapped by aliens and returned after they have had scientific probes performed, the players for the 51s are taken away by the NY Mets to be tested in major league facilities. The arrangement is called “affiliation,” which sounds like what aliens would call the abduction process. The nickname is a realistic one after all, or at least more realistic than when they were called the “Stars.”
