[1] The Adelaide Giants were one of the foundation members of the original Australian Baseball League (ABL).

[3] Now members of the reformed Australian Baseball League, and after a spell known as the Adelaide Bite, the team is back to the original name of Giants.

One of the Dodgers Minor League prospects to play for the Giants was catcher Paul Lo Duca who was with the team in 1995–96.

[4] Lo Duca went on to make his Major League debut for the Dodgers in 1998 and would appear in four All-Star Games (2003–2006) before his retirement in 2008.

Giants infielder and Australian representative at the 1996 Summer Olympics Andrew Scott holds the ABL and club record for most appearances with 469 games played.

The team is made up of up-and-coming MLB draft prospects who play minor league baseball in the USA or established Australian players.

Their specialty was the Shark Tank — a section where fans could sit on the field right next to the Adelaide Bite home dugout and interact with players.

On 1 April 2016, the Bite fooled the world by announcing that baseball legend Derek Jeter would be joining the club as a player manager.

The practical joke garnered international headlines including a story in The New York Times and the Yankees' Twitter account.

As the Adelaide Bite, the franchise twice lost the championship series to the Perth Heat (2010–11 and 2014–15) and was bested by the Brisbane Bandits once (2015–16).
