 If
you've ever watched a Dodger game when
they're playing the San Francisco
Giants in San Francisco you've
probably seen the "Rally Pumpkin" the
Giants' "unofficial" mascot and good
luck charm. Unlike the old Angels'
rally monkey, the popular "Rally
Pumpkin" is a 375-pound man dressed in
orange wearing a pumpkin hat, cheering
and screaming for his beloved team.
Underneath all that orange is Craig
Appel, a bus driver for the Los
Angeles Unified School District and
Chatsworth High. The North Hollywood
resident is a such a loyal San
Francisco Giants' fan, that he has
become their "unofficial" mascot who
drives the teamto their games when
they play here in Southern California.
He also drives the Chatsworth High
School junior varsity baseball team to
their games and has become a sort of
good luck charm for them too. The team
was already on a roll when Appel
started driving them, but he kept the
teams winning streak going, said
Stuarts Sellz the head coach of the
Chatsworth junior varsity team. The
team won three games in a row with
Appel as their bus driver.
