In a new team tradition, every time a member of the Anchorage Glacier Pilots baseball team hits a ball over the fence for a home run, they have the moose head portion of the mascot costume placed on their head.
Anchorage Glacier Pilots outfielder Caden Kendle prepares to receive the team's moose mascot head after hitting a home run during the first inning of his team's win over Chugiak-Eagle River on Tuesday, July 12, 2022 at Mulcahy Stadium.
Whenever a Glacier Pilots player hits a ball over the fence for a home run, they have the moose head portion of the mascot costume placed on their head once they reach home plate and don’t remove it until they get to the dugout. “This is always about the kids, and I believe if they have fun doing that — as long as it’s not put in our opponent’s face — then I’m going to allow them to do that,” Serrano said. “They have fun with it. They’re honoring their teammate for hitting the ball over the fence.”
“I wasn’t doing anything different,” Kendle said. “I was just getting my pitch, trying to put a good swing on it, hit the ball hard somewhere and it worked out.”He hit a two-run homer to left field in the bottom of the first inning to draw first blood and hit a solo homer to a similar spot in the bottom of the eighth for the team’s final score.
He gladly accepted the moose head after hitting his first home run but declined the honor following his second.
