Ah, Biggio as catcher. Those were the days.

I think it would be so cool if he caught again for his last game (probably next year).

Let's try a different take on baseball trivia.
There are 7 MLB teams that share a name with a past or present make or model of car. Name them.

Since most team names are plural, and most car models singular, ignore plurality in making a match. For example, if there was a car called the Chevy Yankee, it would count.

Expos don't exist anymore, so I wasn't counting that one.
Dodge/Dodger I wasn't counting either.
I'm not familiar with a car model Giant.
Rest are good; 3 still to go.

Marlins
Padres

The MLB teams are current. And I've never heard of "Padre" for a car.
Marlin is good; 2 left.

I'm leaving this hanging, because I'm going to bed soon, and y'all will probably realize when you've gotten it right.
To keep it rolling for a while, there are also:
11 NBA teams (one was only a concept car)
11 NFL teams
7 NHL teams (one concept car, there's also 2 "close but not really" answers similar to Dodge/Dodger that I didn't count)
6 WNBA teams
with the same properties. There are some overlaps (NY Rangers, for example. 6 NHL teams to go, now).
Enjoy.
