Jacksonville Suns - 1980

Jacksonville Expos - 1986

The first team from Florida known as the Jacksonville Suns arrived in the city by way of Havana, Cuba, and Jersey City, New Jersey. Following the Cuban Revolution in 1959, the Havana Sugar Kings of the Triple-A International League (IL) relocated to become the Jersey City Jerseys during the 1960 season. The franchise folded after the 1961 campaign and was bought by a local group headed by Samuel W. Wolfson. The Suns played their home games at Jacksonville Baseball Park. After the 1968 season, the team was relocated to Norfolk, Virginia, as the Tidewater Tides

A new Suns team began play in 1970 when the Double-A Southern League added expansion franchises in Jacksonville, and Mobile, Alabama. Jacksonville became the Double-A affiliate of both the Milwaukee Brewers and Montreal Expos for their first Southern League season. They became a Cleveland Indians farm club in 1971, and then began a much longer affiliation with the Kansas City Royals in 1972. Jacksonville became the Double-A affiliate of the Montreal Expos in 1984. From 1985-1990 the team was rechristened Jacksonville Expos.
