So, believe it or not, San Francisco's own AT&T Park is in the English textbook for 8th graders (2nd year junior high school) here at my school in Japan. It's slightly out of date, in that it's called SBC Park. :) The textbook mentions BARK, the old team of Portuguese water dogs that was formed by Father Guido Sarducci to jump in after splash hits on Sunday home games.

Doing a search, the Giants site doesn't mention them anymore, so I assume BARK isn't around. But when did they stop? What happened to them? We need VH1 to do a Where Are They Now? on the dogs.
