Who plays in the G-League under the sea?
The Delaware 87ers, that's who.
Wednesday is Nickelodeon Night at the 87ers' game against the Erie BayHawks and the home squad is going with outstanding SpongeBob SquarePants uniforms.

Outrageous uniforms are commonplace in minor-league baseball, but it's great to see the G-League embracing an outside-of-the-box look for a good cause.
The 87ers are raising money from ticket sales and a jersey auction to benefit CHILD, Inc., which provides programs for children and families that have been impacted by domestic violence.

Tipoff for Nickelodeon Night is set for 6:30 p.m. at the Bob Carpenter Center at University of Delaware.
The 87ers entered Tuesday night's game against Santa Cruz at 6-14 on the season, but maybe this is what they need to get them out of the Bikini Bottom of the standings.
