International League
The
International League
(
IL
) is a
minor league baseball
league that operates in the
eastern United States
. Like the
Pacific Coast League
and the
Mexican League
, it plays at the
Triple-A
level, which is one step below
Major League Baseball
. It was so named because it had teams in both the
United States
and
Canada
(and for several years in the 1950s in
Cuba
as well). However, since the relocation of the
Ottawa Lynx
to
Allentown, Pennsylvania
, to become the
Lehigh Valley IronPigs
for the 2008 season, all of the league's teams are now based in the U.S.
