Notes: Designed by famed HOK architects, this downtown stadium, was built with an eye toward Major League Baseball expansion once Buffalo hoped to secure a franchise. The 46 million dollar Pilot Field was renamed North AmeriCare Park in July of 1995 when the naming rights were sold to a regional HMO. For the first few months of the 1995 season the stadium was simply "The Ballpark in Downtown Buffalo". Dunn Tire, a regional tire retailer, acquired the naming rights in 1999. This stadium replaced the nearby decaying War Memorial Stadium (Photos).

Bison History
The team originally known as the Buffalo Bisons actually dates to a major league club, the Buffalo Bisons of the National League (1879-85). In 1886, the Bisons moved into minor league baseball as members of the original International League.

This franchise continued in the IL (known as the Eastern League from 1891-1911) through June 11, 1970, when it transferred to Winnipeg, Manitoba. After six seasons in the Eastern League, the Bisons joined the Triple-A ranks in 1985, joining the American Association when the Wichita Aeros franchise rights were transferred to Buffalo.

Before the 1997 season the Bisons announced it would be their last in the American Association, as they would be switching to the International League for the 1998 season. This gave Triple A baseball a chance to realign and the American Association folded. Joining Buffalo in the IL was Indianapolis and Louisville. The remaining AA teams joined the PCL.
