Rochester Red Wings

Rochester Red Wings

The Rochester Red Wings are a Minor League Baseball team of the International League and the Triple-A affiliate of the Washington Nationals. They are located in Rochester, New York, and play their home games at ESL Ballpark, located in downtown Rochester. Founded in 1899, they are the oldest continuously operating sports franchise in North America below the major league level. Since the widespread adoption of the minor league farm system in the 1920s, the Red Wings have been affiliated with four Major League Baseball clubs, an unusually stable series of relationships. They were the top farm team of the St. Louis Cardinals for 32 years, Baltimore Orioles for 42 years, and Minnesota Twins for 18 years. They then became the Triple-A affiliate of the Nationals in 2021. The franchise played from 1929 through 1996 at Silver Stadium and moved to Frontier Field in 1997, now called ESL Ballpark.
