	Tacoma Rainiers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Tacoma Rainiers are a minor league baseball team which plays in the Pacific Coast League, and are the AAA affiliate of the Seattle Mariners.
		Tacoma's first entry in the PCL was the Tacoma Tigers, who joined the league in 1904, having moved from Sacramento after the 1903 season.
		As the Tacoma Tigers, the team was an affiliate of the Oakland Athletics between 1981 and 1994, and both José Canseco and Mark McGwire went through Tacoma on their way to baseball stardom.

		The transplanted Tigers, now known as the Mission Reds or usually just "the Missions," foundered in San Francisco, failing to establish a rivalry with the existing San Francisco Seals.
