Orbit in Akron’s baseball history

The original First Night event guide for December 31, 2005 names Akron Aeros’s Orbit. This earlier primary record connects the festival name with Akron’s baseball mascot.

An official Akron RubberDucks announcement dated April 7, 2014 describes Orbit as a space cat and one of the team’s mascots, alongside Homer and the newly introduced Webster.

These sources provide dated background. They do not recover the missing description of Orbit’s First Night 2013 appearance or establish an appearance at the returning festival. Compare the recovered 2013 Shoppes schedule with the complete 2016 artist roster for records from their respective editions.
