The Missions are owned by the Elmore Sports Group, an organization which also owns the Inland Empire 66ers of the California League. The Missions were the Double-A affiliate of the Los Angeles Dodgers until 2000, when the Dodgers ended their affiliation with the 66ers (then the San Bernardino Stampede), causing the owners to seek a change for both the Missions and the Stampede.
