Raleigh, North Carolina hosted a franchise in the Carolina League from the formation of that loop in 1945 until 1971. Raleigh’s final decade in the loop was turbulent, as the ball club changed Major League affiliations and identities six times between 1962 and 1971. The Raleigh Cardinals were the city team for the summers of 1964 and 1965.
