Yard Goats "honors Hartford's rich railroad history." It is a slang term for "an engine that switches a train to get it ready for another locomotive to take over."
A press release issued by the Rock Cats on Wednesday afternoon provided further detail.
"A Minor League Baseball player is like that humble Yard Goat," it reads. "Not a glamorous job but working day in and day out away from the big city lights to assure that the Major League affiliate is kept on track."
