Salt Lake City Bees

The Salt Lake Bees played their home games at Derks Field.

However, in 1915, the San Francisco Missions were sold to Utah businessman Bill "Hardpan" Lane who moved the team to Salt Lake City.

In their first season as the Angels, the club won the southern division of the Pacific Coast League with a 78-68 record.

The team was renamed the Salt Lake City Gulls in 1975 but remained as the Angels' top affiliate through the 1981 season.

[citation needed] The current minor league team in the city, the Salt Lake Buzz chose their name in part to pay homage to the Bees heritage.
