Calgary Expos

Calgary Expos

The Calgary Expos were a minor league baseball team located in Calgary, Alberta, Canada from 1977-84. The team was a member of the Rookie level Pioneer League. The team was known as the Calgary Cardinals in 1977-78 after their affiliation with the St. Louis Cardinals. Calgary picked up the Expos moniker in 1979 when they switched affiliations to the Montreal Expos.

Calgary was joined by the Medicine Hat A's as expansion teams in 1977. The Expos relocated to Salt Lake City, Utah to become the Salt Lake City Trappers in 1985 to make room for the Calgary Cannons of the Pacific Coast League.
