The Asheville Tourists is a minor league baseball team based in Asheville, North Carolina, USA. They play in the Class A South Atlantic League and have been a farm team of the Colorado Rockies since 1994. Asheville teams have played under the Tourists moniker in different leagues and classifications for decades, with the earliest dating to 1915. The current team has played continuously in what is now known as the South Atlantic League since 1976. They have won one league championship, in 1984. Previous Tourists teams won a total of four additional championships. The Tourists play home games at McCormick Field. The park opened in 1924 and was renovated in 1959, and again for the 1992 season. McCormick Field seats 4,000 fans, and is often joked about because of its scoreboard, which reads "Visitors" in the guest slot and "Tourists" in the home slot.[1]
