The Lake Elsinore Storm
are a minor league baseball team in Lake Elsinore, California, USA. They are a "high-A" class team in the California League, and are a farm team of the San Diego Padres. The Storm play home games at Lake Elsinore Diamond; (Pete Lehr Field) opened in 1994, the park seats 7,866 fans. Their unusual logo, with a cap featuring a pair of eyes, also Thunder and Jackpot (Mascots of the team) made the team what it is today.
This team relocated three times and has been traced back to the Redwood Pioneers then the Palm Springs Angels and now the Lake Elsinore Storm. The Palm Spring Angels stadium was used by the California Angels during spring training. As the Palm Springs Angels and later as the Storm, they had previously been the "high-A" affiliate of the Angels before 2002 (along with their former mascot, Hamlet), when they and the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes switched affiliations. Some former members of the Storm later became members of the Angels' 2002 World Series championship team.
On May 18, 2007, the Storm set a league record for most lopsided victory, beating the Lancaster JetHawks by a 30-0 score.
Since the 2004 opening of PETCO Park, the new home field of the Padres, the Storm have played one home game there toward the end of each season, as the second half of a doubleheader following a Padres daytime home game. Usually, their opponent has been the California League farm team of the Padres' same-day opponents. The 2008 game is scheduled for Wednesday, August 27, vs. the Inland Empire 66ers following a Padres-Diamondbacks game.
