Waterbury Angels
December 29, 2013
The city of Waterbury, Connecticut had a Class AA Eastern League minor league baseball team for 21 years from 1966 to 1986. The ball club changed affiliations with Major League Baseball with extraordinary frequency – no parent club ever stayed more than four seasons. The California Angels had one of the briefest flings in Waterbury. They replaced the departing Cincinnati Reds in 1984 and sponsored Waterbury’s club for just one year before leaving town.
