The Northeast League Aces )(also known as just the Aces in box scores) were a traveling team in the Northeast League in the 2004 season to replace the Allentown Ambassadors.
The Ambassadors' roster was dispersed around the league, and the Aces were forced to sign a bunch of free agents to form a team to compete. They finished the first half of the season in last place in the Northeast League South Division, but rebounded in the second half to finish second, albeit a distant second, behind the eventual league champion New Jersey Jackals.
For the inaugural Can-Am League season in 2005, the Aces were disbanded and replaced by a permanent team in Worcester, Massachusetts.
The Alexandria Aces of the United Baseball League are currently using the Aces' logo for their squad.
