List of Nashville Sounds seasons
The Nashville Sounds Minor League Baseball team has played in Nashville, Tennessee, for 44 years since being established in 1978. As of the completion of the 2021 season, the club has played 6,123 regular season games and compiled a win–loss record of 3,146–2,977 (.514).[1] They have appeared in the postseason on 15 occasions in which they have a record of 49–43 (.533).[2] Combining all 6,215 regular season and postseason games, Nashville has an all-time record of 3,195–3,020 (.514).[1][2]
Created as an expansion team of the Double-A Southern League (SL) in 1978, the Sounds played in this league through 1984.[3] At the Double-A classification, Nashville was affiliated with Major League Baseball's Cincinnati Reds (1978–1979) and New York Yankees (1980–1984).[1] The Sounds moved up to Triple-A in 1985 as members of the American Association (AA), joined the Pacific Coast League (PCL) in 1998, and were placed in the Triple-A East in 2021.[3][4] At this level, they have been affiliates of the Detroit Tigers (1985–1986), Cincinnati Reds (1987–1992), Chicago White Sox (1993–1997), Pittsburgh Pirates (1998–2004), Milwaukee Brewers (2005–2014), Oakland Athletics (2015–2018), Texas Rangers (2019–2020), and Milwaukee Brewers (2021–present).[1][5]
Nashville reached the postseason in six of their seven years in the Southern League, all by means of winning the Second Half Western Division title.[2] They went on to win three Western Division titles and two Southern League championships during this time.[6] Their first championship came in 1979 as the Double-A affiliate of the Reds and their second in 1982 as the Double-A affiliate of the Yankees.[1] The Sounds' 13 years in the American Association were less successful. Though Nashville posted eight winning seasons and qualified for the playoffs three times, including twice by virtue of clinching the Eastern Division title, they failed to win an American Association championship.[2] After a quiet start in the Pacific Coast League, the Sounds won four division titles, two conference titles, and one Pacific Coast League championship between 2003 and 2007.[7] Nashville did not qualify again for postseason play until 2016 when they won their division.[8] Their lone PCL championship came in 2005 as the Triple-A affiliate of the Brewers.[1] The 2021 season was the Sounds' first in the newly created Triple-A East.[4]
The team's best season record occurred in 1980 when they finished 97–46 (.678) as the Double-A Yankees. Their lowest season record was 57–87 (.396) in 2013 as the Triple-A Brewers. Of the eight Major League Baseball teams with which Nashville has been affiliated, the Sounds experienced their best record as the Double-A farm club of the Yankees from 1980 to 1984. The team had a composite regular season record of 417–306 (.577). They reached the postseason in all five seasons, winning two Western Division titles and one Southern League championship. Their postseason record was 14–14 (.500). Conversely, the team's lowest record was as the Texas Rangers' Triple-A club from 2019 to 2020. The Sounds compiled a 66–72 (.478) record and failed to reach the postseason in their only season of play under the affiliation.[n 1]
