Team name

The team name once belonged to the St. George RoadRunners of the Golden Baseball League (which has since been absorbed into the new North American League). The GBL RoadRunners played for four seasons from 2007 to 2010, before ownership, financial and stadium issues forced the team to fold after the 2010 season. It is now shared with the newest NAL franchise, the Henderson RoadRunners from Henderson, Nevada.

The Arizona RoadRunners were added to the AWL along with the Long Beach Armada and Team Mexico with the Sonora Pilots returning to the league. The AWL consists of some teams formerly identified as GBL franchises.[1] They now play in the American Division along with the Blythe Heat, Long Beach Armada, Somerton Stingers and Yuma Scorpions.

gollark: How is this not constantly exploited everywhere?
gollark: If you have someone's credit card number and some details you can just... arbitrarily pull money from it and they can't stop it without lots of effort, and you need to give people it to pay for anything?
gollark: To be honest the infrastructure for online payments seems broken and moronically designed and I don't understand how it works.
gollark: Wait, I could just have a box where people can send me credit card numbers.
gollark: What, providing services people are willing to pay for? Ridiculous. And I would need to do payment processing, which would require legal stuff, and making my servers/data actually secure, and it would be annoying.
