for Pocatello Posse (Baseball team)
Biography"In 1993 the Salt Lake City Trappers of the Pioneer League moved to Pocatello, Idaho, and became the Pocatello Posse. The independent club drew 45,638 fans, 3rd in the 8-team league, and posted a respectable 37-38 record for skipper Ernie Rodriguez. All-Star OF Derek Vaughn (.311/~.362/.428) led the Pioneer League in steals (40 in 53 tries), hits (93) and total bases (128) and was 9th in average. All-Star 1B Will Fitzgerald hit .330/~.440/.541, the 5th-best average and led the PL with 58 RBI. The club's third All-Star was DH Todd Takayoshi (.358/.466/.465), who had the best average and on-base percentage in the league and also led in walks (50). The fourth top-10 player in average was OF-2B David Bingham (.348/~.437/.511), third in the circuit in that category. In the top 10 in ERA was Gene Caruso (7-5, 3.07, 8th in ERA and a league-high 163 Ks in just 111 IP). The top player to emerge from the team was Cory Lidle, who went 8-4 with a 4.13 ERA. Despite a fine year, the team moved back to Utah the next year and became the Ogden Raptors."--https://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/Pocatello_Posse
