The team, which plays in the International League, is the Triple-A affiliate of the Cleveland Indians major-league club. The Bisons play in Dunn Tire Park stadium, located in downtown Buffalo. The Bisons most recent playoff season was in 2004, when the team came back from being 12 1/2 games out of first place in late June to winning their division by a convincing 6 games. Buffalo won its first-round playoff and advanced to the Governor's Cup Finals, in which they had home-field advantage over the Richmond Braves.

The Bisons swept the braves in three games and won the Governor's Cup for the third time since 1998.
