Шаблон:Infobox Minor League Baseball The Hanover Tigers were a minor league baseball team based in Hanover, Pennsylvania. In 1896, the Tigers played as members of the Cumberland Valley League in the league's only season of play. Hanover finished in last place in the league standings.

History

Minor league baseball began in Hanover, Pennsylvania in 1896, when the Hanover Tigers became charter members of the four–team Cumberland Valley League. The Carlisle Colts, Chambersburg Maroons and Hagerstown Lions teams joined Hanover in beginning league play on June 10, 1896.

Hanover finished the 1896 season in last place and briefly relocated during the season. On August 1, 1896, the team briefly transferred to York, Pennsylvania before moving back to Hanover on August 8, 1896. With a record of 12–25, playing the season under managers Barnie Mulhall and Bobby Rothermel, the Tigers finished in fourth place. Hanover finished 13.5 games behind the first place Hagerstown Lions. The Cumberland Valley League permanently folded after the season.

In 1915, minor league baseball returned to the city, as the Hanover Hornets began a long tenure of Hanover playing as members of the Class D level Blue Ridge League.

In 2017, the Hanover Raiders nickname was revived by the collegiate summer baseball team based in Hanover that began play as a member of the South Penn League.
