On April 22, 1959, a nineteen-year-old infielder making his professional debut went 1-for-4 with a run-scoring single for the Raleigh Capitals. His name was barely known to sportswriters at the time, who occasionally got it wrong in print, but Carl Yastrzemski would go on to a 23-year Hall of Fame career with the Boston Red Sox, winning the Triple Crown in 1967.

Yastrzemski hit .377 for the Capitals in 1959, leading the Carolina League in hits, doubles, and batting average, and was named the league's Player of the Year, an award presented to him mid-game when a contest at Devereux Meadow was paused in the third inning so he could accept it. Raleigh finished the regular season in first place, six and a half games ahead of the Wilson Tobs, only to be swept by Wilson in the best-of-seven playoffs.

The Capitals name had been used by Raleigh teams as far back as the 1920s Piedmont League, and Raleigh had also won Carolina League titles in 1946 and 1947 under an earlier postwar incarnation of the team. After the Capitals' run ended in 1962, the same Raleigh franchise was renamed the Mets, then the Cardinals, then the Pirates, before merging into the Durham Bulls in 1968.

Dog doesn’t like how it slams into his face from the weight
The balls were heavier than I expected and my dog does not like to engage with it even when I drag and throw them around to play with. To heavy duty for cattle dog

Great Training tool!
These things are great! I have a power chewing 8 month old Doberman who DESTROYS toys and he LOVES these balls. I use them on walks as a training reward and it has been a game changer. He loves these more than treats. Its not something I would leave for him to chew on his own in the house, but that's not what they're meant for. You use the rope to dangle and animate the ball so you become the most interesting thing on the walk. Then a clear drop command and you're back at whatever task you were working on. It's great to train recall, leave it, and reward for any good behavior. Highly recommend as a training tool, just remember to tighten the rope before you use it. Do not leave these things lying around your house and think you'll have a great result if you have a power chewer. Use as intended and you will be a happy camper!

Didn’t last 2 minutes
Not actually made of corded rope. Instead made with the most fragile materials this misleading, fraudulent company could find. Any potential buyers beware of this long string of tissue paper. I have been duped!!! Duped!!!
