BallCorps LLC announced on Thursday (October 25th) that the organization has purchased the naming and marketing rights of the former Huntsville Southern League Baseball Club, the Huntsville Stars. This could result in throwback nights, uniforms, and multiple other things to celebrate the historic past of the Stars. The organization is also in discussions of selling Huntsville Stars merchandise alongside the Trash Pandas gear.
The new stadium in Madison, Alabama is a little over 10 miles away from Joe Davis Stadium, the former home of the Huntsville Stars. The Stars debuted in the Southern League in 1985 and remained in Huntsville until the end of the 2014 season where the team was moved to Biloxi, Mississippi (Biloxi Shuckers). During that time the Stars earned Division Titles in 1985, 1986, 1994, 1997, 2001, 2003, 2006, and 2007. They were champions of the Southern Leauge in 1985, 1994, and 2001.
From 1985 to 1998, the Stars were affiliated with the Oakland Athletics and from 1999 through 2014, they were affiliated with the Huntsville Stars. The new Rocket City Trash Pandas will be affiliated with the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. (Koelle,2018)
