Albany-Colonie Diamond Dogs
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Albany-Colonie Diamond Dogs were a minor league baseball team based in Albany, New York from 1995 to 2002. The team played at Heritage Park in Colonie. The Diamond Dogs competed in the Northeast League from 1995-98 and then in the Northern League when the two leagues merged prior to the 1999 season. The Diamond Dogs won the Northern League Championship in 1999. Their mascot was "Homer the Heritage Hound," a dog named for Heritage Park. Due to financial woes and competition from the new Tri-City Valley Cats, the Diamond Dogs folded after the 2002 season.
