History


Prior to their four-year stint as the Vermont Reds, this franchise was known as the Lynn Sailors from 1980 to 1983 and served as the Double-A affiliate of the Seattle Mariners (1980 to 1982) and Pittsburgh Pirates (1983).


In 1984, owner Mike Agganis moved the Lynn Pirates from Lynn, Massachusetts to Burlington, and Agganis signed a four-year agreement with the Cincinnati Reds. The club was renamed the Vermont Reds.[1]


After the stint as the Vermont Reds, the franchise again served as the Double-A affiliate of the Seattle Mariners in 1988, becoming the Vermont Mariners. Today, the franchise is the Double-A affiliate of the Cleveland Indians and is known as the Akron RubberDucks.
