Kannapolis Cannon Ballers

They are located in Kannapolis, North Carolina, and play their home games at Atrium Health Ballpark.

The Piedmont Boll Weevils kept that mascot until after the 2000 season, when NASCAR racer Dale Earnhardt purchased a share in the team's ownership.

[4] Current or former Major League Baseball players to pass through Kannapolis include Jimmy Rollins and Dave Coggin of the Philadelphia Phillies, as well as Jack Egbert, Gordon Beckham, Chris Getz, Brent Morel, and Clayton Richard of the Chicago White Sox.

Marlon Byrd, Jorge Padilla, Ryan Madson, and Brett Myers played for the 2000 Piedmont Boll Weevils.

[6] On October 30, 2018, ground was broken on a new ballpark in downtown Kannapolis as part of a mixed-use redevelopment plan.

[11] The new owners cited their inability to widely market the Intimidator name due its association with Earnhardt, and trademark rights held by his estate.

Larry and Sue Hedrick, the owners who bought the Spartanburg Phillies in 1993 and eventually moved them to Kannapolis, retained a minority share of the team's ownership.

[17] The Kannapolis city council voted to transfer the lease of the stadium to Intimidators Baseball Club LLC.
