Knights History

George Shinn purchased the O's (Knights) in 1987. In 1989, Shinn changed the team's nickname to the Knights through a "Name the Team" contest and also switched affiliations from Baltimore to the Chicago Cubs. A year later, Shinn moved the club to Knights Stadium, a 10,002-seat facility located in Fort Mill, South Carolina. In 2014 the team was once again moved to a new facility closer to uptown, BB&T Ballpark. Read the complete history here.
