Victor the Vampire - While gliding above the outfield lights, Victor tracks every fly ball with sharp eyes and cooler-than-cool confidence. With a love fore the game and a pocket full of sunflower seeds, he's always ready to help his team shine after dark.

Indy the Howler is a loyal and friendly werewolf who lives in the tunnels beneath the Hill City baseball stadium, only a little clumsy when the moon is full. With a keen sense for strikes and balls, Indy leads the Hill City Howlers' monster friends in helping the team win games - howling with excitement before every big hit.

Murray the Mummy - From the dugout, Murray carefully wraps up scraped knees and big-league dreams with steady hands and a kind heart. Though he moves slowly, he's always in the right place when his team needs support the most.

Daisy the Bride - With a sharp mind and calm confidence, Daisy studies every play and always has the winning plan. Whether in the tunnel or by the bullpen, she's the quiet strategist who helps turn close games into victories.

Gilly the Creature splashes in from beyond the outfield and keeps a close eye on the perfect cut of grass. A true fan of the grounds crew, he believes a great field is the first step to a great game.
