Lansing Lugnuts
The Lansing Lugnuts are a Minor League Baseball team of the Midwest League and the High-A affiliate of the Oakland Athletics. They are located in Lansing, Michigan, and play their home games at Jackson Field.
The Lugnuts were founded in 1996, and they are named after the lug nut, a type of nut that is used to secure a wheel to an axle. The name was chosen to reflect the city's automotive history as the home of Ransom E. Olds (of Oldsmobile).
