Since the 2005 season, they have played in the Canadian-American Association of Professional Baseball (the \"Can-Am League\"), an independent league that is not affiliated with Major League Baseball or with the Minor League Baseball organization.

History

The club was formed in 1998, and they posted the best record in the Northeast League in their inaugural season under manager Kash Beauchamp. They went on to sweep two playoff series and win the league championship, capturing the final game at Heritage Park in Colonie, New York, over the Albany-Colonie Diamond Dogs.

From 1999 to 2002, the Northeast League was in partnership with the Northern League. The Jackals won the combined league championship in 2001 and 2002 under manager George Tsamis, defeating the Winnipeg Goldeyes in the final series both years. The deciding game was played at CanWest Global Park in Winnipeg, Manitoba in 2001 and at home in 2002. After the 2002 series, Tsamis resigned to take the St. Paul Saints managerial position, and Joe Calfapietra took over.

Former Atlanta Braves second baseman Mark Lemke pitched for the Jackals as a knuckleballer in 1999. Pete Rose, Jr. spent half of the 1998 season on the team, as well.

The leagues went their separate ways in 2003, and the Jackals qualified for the Northeast League playoffs once again but were turned back by the eventual league champion Brockton Rox in the first round. However, the Jackals continued their winning ways in 2004, rebounding from two home losses against the North Shore Spirit to win the championship by capturing the final three games at Fraser Field in Lynn, Massachusetts, two of which required extra innings to decide.

On August 28, 2002, Jeremy Callier pitched the first no-hitter in Jackals history. He completed nine no-hit innings but had to wait to celebrate because the game remained scoreless. In the bottom of the ninth, Ryan Kane hit a home run to left field, giving the Jackals a 2-0 victory over the Berkshire Black Bears and making Callier's no-hitter official. Aaron Myers also threw a no-hitter on August 6, 2006 against the Worcester Tornadoes.

The mascot for the Jackals is an anthropomorphic Jackal named Jack. He entertains the fans and has some trademark game antics, such as wiggling his tail, the cha-cha slide, the YMCA, etc. Jack is very popular with little kids that attend the games, as well as the community.
