1915 Buffalo Blues season
The 1915 Buffalo Blues season was a season in American baseball. The team, which did not have an official nickname but was generally known as the Buffeds the previous year, adopted the "Blues" nickname for the 1915 season. They were also known as the Buffalo Federals or Buffalo Feds. They finished 74–78, good for 6th place in the Federal League, 12 games behind the Chicago Whales. After the season, both the team and the league folded. It would be 105 more years—when the Toronto Blue Jays temporarily moved to Buffalo to play the pandemic-shortened 2020 season and avoid border restrictions—before Buffalo hosted Major League Baseball again.

The Buffalo Blues were a professional baseball club that played in the short-lived Federal League, which was a minor league in 1913 and a full-fledged outlaw major league the next two years. It was the last major league baseball team to be based in the city of Buffalo. In 1913 and 1914, as was the standard for Federal League teams, the franchise did not have an official name, instead going by the generic BufFeds.
