THE OAKLAND BALLERS: The Oakland Ballers (aka the B’s) are Oakland’s baseball team. A member of the Pioneer League, an independent baseball league founded in 1939, they are bringing championship baseball back to Oakland. Our volunteer organization, the Ballunteers, are excited to partner with I heart Oakland Alameda Estuary to help keep our shorelines clean!

This means the highest quality water with the lowest possible environmental impact. Over 100 million bottles later, we think we’re onto something.
