The Pawtucket Red Sox are Boston Red Sox’s Triple-A affiliates who have certainly made their mark especially in recent years. The minor Red Sox can trace their origins back to the days of the Toronto Maple Leafs, members of the International League. They had been the minor affiliate of the Boston Red Sox from 1965 but in 1968 re-located to Louisville as a Triple-A baseball side. The name of team was changed to Louisville Colonels and they began play in 1969 as an International League team.
 
It was in 1972 that the move to Pawtucket materialized and the team was named the Pawtucket Red Sox. The decision worked a treat and they went on to lift the Governors Cup next year. Not only that but the Red Sox went all the way to be crowned the minor world series champions to cap off a remarkable campaign. That was just about as good as it got and the team began to falter.
 
Ben Mondor saved the team from going under when he took over as the new owner and the team once again went on winning ways by capturing the division in 1977. The  Pawtucket Red Sox and their fans had to wait till 1984 for their next championships when they went on to be crowned league winners.
 
The upturn in fortunes was there for everyone to see but there was still a lot of work that had to be done. Slowly but surely the team began to find consistency at the start of the 1990’s. 1991 brought another division title and they followed that up by winning the division again in 1994 and then in 1996.
 
The start of the next decade wasn’t any different to the previous one and the Pawtucket Red Sox won their fifth division championship in 2003. They repeated the feat in 2011. The division titles didn’t mask the fact that the Red Sox hadn’t won the league till 1984. All that changed in 2012 and the Red Sox ended their long drought by capturing the league championship. That was their first league win since 1984 and third overall.
 
The Pawtucket Red Sox have finally climbed the ladder to make it to the top. Their league winning exploits now make them the team to beat. They have made all the hard work count and it will take a strong man to bet against them going to the top once again. For baseball fans this is the ideal opportunity to book Pawtucket Red Sox tickets and watch this special side live.
