1995 International League season

From BR Bullpen

The 1995 International League season was the 110th in the league's history, and ended with the Ottawa Lynx winning their first Governors' Cup in their third season. It was the first IL championship for a Canadian team since the Toronto Maple Leafs won the Governors' Cup in 1966. The Lynx would make the playoffs just once more before leaving Ottawa for Allentown, PA to become the Lehigh Valley IronPigs in 2008.
