The Buffalo Bisons are a Minor League Baseball team from Buffalo, New York.[2] They play baseball at the Triple-A (AAA) level, the most difficult level before Major League Baseball, against other baseball teams in the International League (a group of 20 baseball teams at the same level).[2] The Bisons are partnered with the Toronto Blue Jays, a Major League Baseball team. When a player shows that he plays well at this level, he may be moved up to play for the Blue Jays.

The Bisons played at a stadium called War Memorial Stadium from 1979 to 1987. In 1988, the Bats began to play at a new stadium called Sahlen Field.
