The team first competed in the Arizona League (AZL) from 1988 to 2000.[2] For the 1988–1992 seasons, the team played its home games at Scottsdale Stadium in Scottsdale. The team moved to Peoria and the Peoria Sports Complex in 1993.
After being absent from the league from 2001 through 2003, the team resumed operation in 2004 and has competed since then.[2] In 2006, the team won the first-half title and went on to win the league championship by defeating the AZL Angels, 5–2. For the 2017–2019 seasons, the team fielded two squads in the league, differentiated by numerical suffixes (1 and 2).[2] Prior to the 2021 season, the Arizona League was renamed as the Arizona Complex League (ACL).
