Shreveport-Bossier Captains The Shreveport–Bossier Captains were a professional baseball team based in Shreveport, Louisiana , in the United States . Following the 2011 season, the team was sold to new ownership and moved to Laredo, Texas , to continue play as the Laredo Lemurs . The Captains were a member of the South Division of the American Association of Independent Professional Baseball , which is not affiliated with Major League Baseball . From the 2003 season to the 2011 season, the Captains played their home games at Shreveport's Fair Grounds Field . The latest incarnation of the Captains was founded in 2003 as the Shreveport–Bossier Sports , after the Class-AA Texas League Shreveport Swamp Dragons moved to Frisco, Texas , to become the RoughRiders . On January 8 , 2009, the Captains unveiled their new name, logo, and color scheme ; unlike prior teams, this incarnation of the Captains also encompasses neighboring Bossier City in its locale name. After the 2010 season, the Captains' owners were awarded an American Association team to be based in Amarillo to replace a United League Baseball team. At first it was assumed the Captains would be relocating to Amarillo. However, the Pensacola Pelicans' owners later purchased the Carolina Mudcats and folded the American Association incarnation of the team for the 2011 season so that the Mudcats could relocate to Pensacola for the 2012 baseball season. This move was expected to keep the Captains in Shreveport and in the American Association for the foreseeable future. However, the Shreveport–Bossier Captains announced on November 29 , 2011, that the team had been sold to a new ownership group and would move. The team was purchased by Laredo Baseball Investors, LLC.Professional baseball has been in Shreveport at various levels since 1895, including several teams named the Shreveport Sports and one prior team named the Shreveport Captains :1895 — Shreveport Grays 1901-03 — Shreveport Giants 1904-07 — Shreveport Pirates 1908-10 — Shreveport Pirates 1915-24 — Shreveport Gassers 1925-32 — Shreveport Sports 1933 — Shreveport Sports 1934 — Shreveport Sports 1935 — Shreveport Sports 1938-42 — Shreveport Sports 1946-57 — Shreveport Sports 1959-61 — Shreveport Sports 1968-70 — Shreveport Braves 1971-2000 — Shreveport Captains 2001-02 — Shreveport Swamp Dragons 2003-05 — Shreveport Sports 2006-08 — Shreveport Sports 2009-2011 — Shreveport–Bossier CaptainsMajor leaguers who played in a Shreveport uniform Tony Peña ----- Mike Aldrete -----' Marvin Benard -----' Pedro Feliz -----' Randall Johnson ---- Royce Clayton -----' Russ Ortiz -----' Yorvit Torrealba -----' Chili Davis -----' Bill Mueller -----' Doug Mirabelli -----' George Sisler -----' Al Simmons -----' Zack Wheat -----' Bill Terry -----' Dusty Baker -----' Ralph Garr -----' Tom O'Malley -----' Rick Honeycutt -----' Sixto Lezcano -----' Ramón Martínez -----' Calvin Murray -----' Aaron Fultz -----' Chris Singleton -----' Rich Aurilia -----' Jay Canizaro -----' Keith Foulke -----' Dennis Cook -----' Damon Minor -----' Joe Nathan -----' Lance Niekro -----' Jesse Foppert -----' Scott Linebrink -----' John Burkett -----' Jeff Brantley -----' Joey Gathright -----' Nate Bump -----Championships 1919 Texas League Championship 1942 Texas League Championship 1952 Texas League Championship 1955 Texas League Championship 1990 Texas League Championship 1991 Texas League Championship 1995 Texas League Championship 2010 American Association ChampionshipBallparks Gasser Park 1915-1924 Biedenharn Park 1925-1932 Texas League Park 1938-1942, 1946–1957 Bonneau Peters Field 1968 Braves Field 1968-1970 SPAR Stadium 1971-1985 Fair Grounds Field 1986-2011 1923-1924: Philadelphia A's 1939, 1942, 1946: Chicago White Sox 1968-1970: Atlanta Braves 1971-1972: California Angels 1973-1974: Milwaukee Brewers 1975-1978: Pittsburgh Pirates 1979-2002: San Francisco Giants Year-by-year results (bold denotes a postseason appearance) 2011 Shreveport–Bossier Captains 45 55.450 2010 Shreveport–Bossier Captains 58 37.611 2009 Shreveport–Bossier Captains 48 48.500 2008 Shreveport Sports 26 68.277 2007 Shreveport Sports 47 48.495 2006 Shreveport Sports 54 39.581 2005 Shreveport Sports 46 48.489 2004 Shreveport Sports 50 45.526 2003 Shreveport Sports 51 44.537 2002 Shreveport Swamp Dragons 60 79.432 2001 Shreveport Swamp Dragons 54 81.400 2000 Shreveport Captains 58 81.417 1999 Shreveport Captains 71 69.507 1998 Shreveport Captains 57 83.407 1997 Shreveport Captains 76 62.551 1996 Shreveport Captains 73 66.525 1995 Shreveport Captains 88 47.6521994 Shreveport Captains 73 63.537 1993 Shreveport Captains 66 70.485 1992 Shreveport Captains 77 59.566 1991 Shreveport Captains 86 50.632 1990 Shreveport Captains 65 68.489 1989 Shreveport Captains 75 61.551 1988 Shreveport Captains 74 62.544 1987 Shreveport Captains 78 57.578 1986 Shreveport Captains 80 56.588 1985 Shreveport Captains 72 64.529 1984 Shreveport Captains 59 77.434 1983 Shreveport Captains 72 64.529 1982 Shreveport Captains 62 73.459 1981 Shreveport Captains 68 67.504 1980 Shreveport Captains 49 87.360 1979 Shreveport Captains 73 62.541 1978 Shreveport Captains 55 81.404 1977 Shreveport Captains 62 68.477 1976 Shreveport Captains 70 66.515 1975 Shreveport Captains 76 52.594 1974 Shreveport Captains 59 79.428 1973 Shreveport Captains 70 68.507 1972 Shreveport Captains 64 76.457 1971 Shreveport Captains 69 73.486
