The Albany A's were a minor league baseball team in Colonie, New York. They played in the Eastern League at Heritage Park in Colonie. They were affiliated with the Oakland Athletics. Their announcer that year was Phil Pivnick.

In 1983, the Oakland A's moved their AA affiliate, the West Haven A's, to Albany, New York, and renamed them the Albany A's. In 1984, the team was renamed again, becoming the Albany-Colonie A's. In 1985, the team became an affiliate of the New York Yankees, and was again renamed, this time to the Albany-Colonie Yankees, which they remained until 1994.
