2024 is the 21st season of pro baseball in Kansas City, Kansas. That story begins in 2003, when the organization now dubbed the Monarchs moved to the Kansas City Kansas and called themselves the Kansas City T-Bones. That name stuck for 17 seasons, and the T-Bones won two league titles during that time in 2008 and 2018.
The T-Bones name stuck around until the pandemic, which put baseball on hold in Kansas City and across the country. During that time the team re-branded as the Kansas City Monarchs, taking the field for the first time with their new name in 2021.
