Portland Pickles allege Disney Pixar used logo without permission in new series

The Portland Pickles, a collegiate summer baseball team, claim that Disney and Pixar used their logo in the new animated series "Win or Lose" without permission. The series features a fictional softball team called the Pickles, which resembles the real-life team. Team owner Alan Miller is considering legal action, stating he never granted permission for the use of their trademarks. The fictional team's uniforms and logo closely resemble those of the Portland Pickles, raising concerns about potential confusion among fans. Disney has not responded to requests for comment. An intellectual property attorney noted that the similarities could lead to confusion about the source of the fictional team, but the legitimacy of any legal case remains uncertain.
