The AA's Shreveport Sports franchise has been renamed the Shreveport-Bossier Captains. The name incorporates neighboring Bossier City and a previous nickname associated with Shreveport. The Shreveport Captains played as a Double-A affiliated team in the Texas League from 1971-2000, were renamed the Swamp Dragons for two seasons (2001-02), and then moved to Frisco (TX) for 2003 as the Frisco RoughRiders. The Shreveport Sports started play in 2003 as part of the Central Baseball League and switched to the AA when it was formed for the 2006 season.
