They Might Be Giants Sponsoring T-Ball Teams

They Might Be Giants are looking to sponsor 10 Little League baseball and T-Ball teams after they heard about a Seattle squad that took the group's name and wore T-shirts from their first kid's album, 2002's No!.
"As the team They Might Be Giants does not keep score at their games, we like to say they are currently undefeated!," the band posted on their website.
The quirky Brooklyn, N.Y. pop duo, whose Here Come The 123s won this year's Grammy Award for best children's album, were so inspired by seeing photos of the T-Ball team that they're offering free No! shirts in support of the sport.
"If a pizza parlor or a supermarket can sponsor a team, why can't a rock band?," asks guitarist John Flansburgh. "We've posted a free shirt offer on our website, and as new teams form we're going to post their group photo alongside the Seattle team.
"We only have t-shirts to offer right now, but if we can get hats too, we're up for that."
Information on how to apply (and a former CHARTattack salesman already has) for a team sponsorship is available on the TMBG site.
