History.
From 1975 to 2020, Johnson City, Tennessee, was home to the Johnson City Cardinals, a Rookie affiliate of the St. Louis Cardinals playing in the Appalachian League. In conjunction with a contraction of Minor League Baseball beginning with the 2021 season, the Appalachian League was reorganized as a collegiate summer baseball league, and the Johnson City Cardinals were replaced by a new franchise in the revamped league designed for rising college freshmen and sophomores. 
The new team became known as the Johnson City Doughboys. The nickname is in reference to a statue behind their home stadium, TVA Credit Union Ballpark, named "Spirit of the American Doughboy". The statue honors U.S. infantrymen who died during World War I. Doughboys was a nickname for American soldiers during World War I until about the 1940s.
