About the San Jose Churros
For four games during the season, the San Jose Giants transform into the San Jose Churros as part of Minor League Baseball's Copa de la Diversión initiative. "Copa de la Diversión," or "Fun Cup," is a season-long event series specifically designed to embrace the culture and values that resonate most with participating teams' local U.S. Hispanic/Latino communities.
A staple in many public events and gathering places throughout the region, San Jose's "Churros" moniker pays tribute to the fun often associated with the snack. The logo's hat is also a nod to the region's rich agricultural history and iconic churro vendor Hippolito's background as a vaquero.
