The Omaha Storm Chasers have played at Werner Park since 2011.

The Omaha Storm Chasers Minor League Baseball team has played in Papillion, Nebraska, for 55 years since being established in 1969 as members of the American Association (AA), the Pacific Coast League (PCL), from 1998 to 2020, before joining the International League (IL) in 2021.

The team has played 7,776 regular-season games and compiled a win-loss record of 3,909–3,867 (.503). The Storm Chasers' best regular-season record occurred in 2024 when they finished 89–59 (.601). Conversely, their lowest record was 53–91 (.368) in 2006.

Since 1969, the Storm Chasers have been one of the most successful teams at the minor league level, compiling a 3,543–3,123 record through the 2024 season. The team has claimed eight league titles. Additionally, the Storm Chasers secured three class titles (1990, 2013 and 2014). They have also captured fifteen division titles, including four consecutive championships from 2011 to 2014. Aside from this, they have had 2 different stretches of 3 consecutive division titles; from 1976-1978 and from 1989-1990.

The Storm Chasers have experienced one main period of failure. Between 1991 and 2009, the Storm Chasers only appeared in the postseason three times and had only nine winning seasons. For sixteen, including eleven consecutive, seasons under Mike Jirschele, the Storm Chasers made six postseason appearances and won four division titles. In addition, Jirschele and the Storm Chasers competed in three consecutive Pacific Coast League Championship games winning two, in 2012 and 2013, and being runner-up in 2011.
