# List of Omaha Storm Chasers seasons

The Omaha Storm Chasers are a Minor League Baseball team based in Papillion, Nebraska. Established in 1969, they initially competed in the American Association (AA) before joining the Pacific Coast League (PCL) in 1998 and later transitioning to the International League (IL) in 2021.
The Storm Chasers have played 7,776 regular-season games, compiling a win–loss record of 3,909–3,867, resulting in a winning percentage of .503. Their best regular-season performance came in 1969, when they finished 85–55 (.607), while their lowest record occurred in 2006, when they went 53–91 (.368).
The team has claimed eight league titles, along with three class titles (1990, 2013, and 2014). Additionally, they have secured fifteen division titles, including a dominant four-year championship run from 2011 to 2014. The Storm Chasers also had two separate stretches of three consecutive division titles: from 1976 to 1978 and from 1988 to 1990.
The franchise endured a prolonged period of struggles between 1991 and 2009, reaching the postseason only three times and recording nine winning seasons. However, across sixteen seasons—including eleven consecutive years—under manager Mike Jirschele, the Storm Chasers made six playoff appearances and won four division titles. Jirschele guided the team to three straight Pacific Coast League championship series, winning back-to-back titles in 2012 and 2013 and finishing as the runner-up in 2011.
