Arizona Diamondbacks
What has four legs in the morning, two legs in the afternoon and three at night? Baxter, the D-backs' mascot (we're just waiting for the geriatric version of the patch.)
Atlanta Braves
For the Atlanta fan that still holds many good memories of Greg Maddux striking batters out, Andruw Jones laying out for fly balls and Chipper Jones lacing liners all over the park, this keychain with dirt from Turner Field is probably just the thing.
Chicago Cubs

San Francisco Giants
Yeah, the Giants may not have won the 2016 World Series, but after pushing the chips in to try and acquire
St. Louis Cardinals
Forget going to the sports bar for the game. Just get your very own Cardinals neon sign. In fact, why not replace every lighting source in your house with a neon Cardinals sign? A real fan would do it -- just saying.
Washington Nationals
