The York Revolution has welcomed a furry addition to its roster. An eight-month-old female goldendoodle has been adopted by the team as its new team dog. The dog is the latest paired with the team by the York County SPCA.

The unnamed puppy succeeded Blue, the Siberian husky that took over team dog duties upon the 2019 retirement of the late Boomer, the original team dog and the namesake of the Revolution's book club for local students. Blue's owners elected to retire Blue from team dog life following a tenure shortened by COVID's impact on two baseball seasons.

The Revolution invites fans and York-area neighbors to help name its four-legged celebrity. Team officials spent several days brainstorming and researching potential names before whittling the options to three - Rosie, Dottie, and Peaches.

Community members can help the Revolution select one of those three names by commenting on posts on the team's Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter accounts. The team will announce the winning name in a press event in the coming weeks.

Revolution officials said the new team dog will be gradually introduced to fans this coming season, the team's 15th. The dog will spend the rest of this year getting acclimated to PeoplesBank Park and completing its training program before assuming full team dog responsibilities for 2023, including public appearances and visits to schools participating in Boomer's Book Club.
