The Edmonton Trappers were a minor league baseball (Triple A) team in the Pacific Coast League, ending with the 2004 season. Home games were played at Telus Field (capacity 9200) in downtown Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
The Trappers celebrated three PCL titles in the past decade, most recently in 2002 under the affiliation of the Minnesota Twins (American League). In 2003, the team became the major affiliate of the Montreal Expos (National League).
In October 2003, the Trappers' fate in Edmonton was sealed when the team was purchased by a group led by Hall of Famer Nolan Ryan and his son Reid. The Ryans moved the team to Round Rock, Texas, where it is now known as the Round Rock Express.
