Kane County Cougars
Official Sponsor Hotel of Kane County Cougars @ Northwestern Medicine Field 2020
The year was 1991 and the baseball season was fast approaching when the Kane County Cougars shocked the Minor League community by moving their franchise from quiet Wausau, Wisconsin, into the shadow of two Major League teams in Chicago. Could a struggling franchise revive itself by operating within shouting distance of the Cubs and White Sox? Would Cougar fans display support in this new environment? Throughout the years, the statistics have spoken a truth, revealing a revived team, with their loyal fans ever present.
As an affiliate of the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Cougars continue to set a standard of excellence, both on and off the field. In 2013, the Cougars welcomed their 10 millionth fan in franchise history, becoming the first Class-A team in Minor League Baseball history to reach the historic figure. In 2014, the Cougars captured their second Midwest League Championship, and set a team record with 91 regular-season wins. As the only team with a Major League affiliation in Chicagoland, the Cougars provide the best in affordable and family-friendly fun throughout Chicagoland.
