This Franchise History episode is the continuation of our last Mostly Forgotten Teams episode about the Houston Buffalo(e)s/Buffs. After Houston was awarded a National League Franchise, which began play as the Colt .45s in 1962, the Houston Buffs relocated to Oklahoma City, OK, becoming the first Triple-A team in the city. This episode looks at their history through the 2023 season.

FYI - The 89ers name finished ahead of other finalists: Jets, Astrojets, Atoms, Missiles, and Colt 38s when the name was picked in 1962.

My understanding is that one of the minority owners of the L A Dodgers is the effective current owner of the OKC Triple A team. That is why this affiliation exists. But I do not think this is an ideal situation for the L A Dodgers. Given the distance between the two cities, shuffling personnel up and down is too time consuming and expensive. I think at some point L A is going to want to find an affiliate closer to home as many of the other 29 MLB teams have done. Stuart in L A.
