The Canton Crocodiles were an independent minor league baseball team that took up residence in Canton, Ohio’s Thurman Munson Memorial Stadium in 1997. The Crocs replaced the departing Canton-Akron Indians (1989-1996), the Class AA farm club of the Cleveland Indians, who were lured away by neighboring Akron’s development of $31 million Canal Park in 1997.
