Minor-league baseball stadium completed in 1942, dedicated and named in honor of Mayor Thomas P.McCoy. It was to be built on a swampy piece of land known as Hammond's Pond and, to this day, the stadium sits at the end of Pond Street. McCoy Stadium first began hosting affiliated Minor League Baseball in 1946. The Pawtucket Slaters, a Class B affiliate of the Boston Braves, was the first team to call McCoy Stadium home. The Pawtucket Slaters would play for 4 seasons in the New England League, as Braves affiliates.
Iin 1966, as a member of the Eastern League, McCoy Stadium hosted the Double-A affiliate of the Cleveland Indians, the Pawtucket Indians. After 2 years, the Indians moved to Waterbury, Connecticut. Finally, in 1969, the Boston Red Sox came to scout McCoy Stadium. By April 1970, the Sox had pulled their minor league affiliate out of their home in Pittsfield, Massachusetts and moved into McCoy Stadium, where they remain today. The Pawtucket Red Sox would spend three years playing for the Double-A Eastern League before being promoted to the Triple-A International League.
