Worcester Tornadoes
June 19, 2013
The Worcester Tornadoes were an independent professional baseball club that played in Worcester, Massachusetts for eight seasons from 2005 to 2012. The Tornadoes were part of the now-defunct Can-Am League, whose clubs had no affiliation with Major League Baseball. The arrival of the Tornadoes in the spring of 2005 marked the return of pro baseball to Worcester after a 71-year absence.
