The Arizona Diamondbacks won't be the only MLB team to kick it old school this year.

The Oakland Athleticsย will celebrate their 50th anniversary in Oakland by bringing back "Harvey the Rabbit" to deliver the baseballs for ceremonial first pitches to the umpire:

Here's a look at the original Harvey the Rabbit:

"It's just a cool thing and will be with us many years to come," A's president Dave Kaval said, per Susan Sussler of the San Francisco Chronicle. "It almost becomes like a second mascot. I think it's going to be an incredible ambassador of the A's brand. Kids are going to smile and laugh."

Harvey may not be able to help the team win, but he can certainly bring some joy to fans.
