The team named for churches

The San Antonio Missions, the city's professional baseball club, are named after Catholic churches and feature a church on their team caps.

According to a report from the Archdiocese of San Antonio, the team's logo includes a mission bell inside the letter M, which is shaped like the silhouette of the Alamo. The Alamo served as the Franciscan church Mission San Antonio de Valero for 70 years before it became a military compound.
