The Kansas City Blue Stockings were a minor league baseball team based in Kansas City, Missouri. In 1902 and 1903, the Kansas City Blue Stockings played exclusively as members of the Class A level Western League, capturing the 1902 league championship. After the 1903 season, the franchise was forced to fold as the result of a territory dispute between the Western League and American Association. The Kansas City Blue Stockings were founded to replace the Kansas City Blues franchise in the Western League and played home games at Sportsman's Park, which was built for the team.
Baseball Hall of Fame member Kid Nichols was a player/manager and part–owner of the Blue Stockings.
