# List of Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders seasons

The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders are a Minor League Baseball team that plays in the Scranton–Wilkes-Barre metropolitan area. Established in 1989 as members of the International League (IL), the franchise has served under two Major League Baseball (MLB) affiliates: the Philadelphia Phillies (1989–2006) and the New York Yankees since 2007. The team has called PNC Field home since its inception.
Originally known as the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Red Barons (1989–2006), the franchise was affiliated with the Philadelphia Phillies. In 2007, the team rebranded as the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees after becoming the Triple-A affiliate of the New York Yankees. The RailRiders name was officially adopted in 2013 following a fan vote.
The team has played 4,989 regular-season games and compiled a win–loss record of 2,658–2,331, resulting in a winning percentage of .533. The RailRiders' best regular-season record occurred in 2016 when they finished 91–53 (.636). Conversely, their worst record was 62–80 (.437), which the team recorded in both 1993 and 1994.
The team has won two league titles (2008 and 2016). Additionally, the RailRiders secured one Triple-A championship (2016) and thirteen division titles, including five consecutive championships from 2006 to 2010, along with three wild card playoff berths. The RailRiders experienced a difficult start. Between 1989, their inaugural season, and 1998, they appeared in the postseason only once—an appearance in the IL championship series in 1992—and had just one winning season, also in 1992. However, under manager Dave Miley (2007–2015), the RailRiders had a dominant stretch, making nine consecutive postseason appearances and winning seven division titles. Miley also led the team to two IL championship games, winning in 2008 and finishing as the runner-up in 2009.
