    MINOR LEAGUE PRESIDENTS compiled by Tony Baseballs www.minorleaguebaseballs.com This document deals only with professional minor leagues (both independent and those affiliated with Major League Baseball) since the foundation of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues (popularly known as Minor League Baseball, or MiLB) in 1902. Collegiate Summer leagues, semi-pro leagues, and all other non-professional leagues are excluded, but encouraged! The information herein was compiled from several sources including the Encyclopedia of Minor League Baseball (2nd Ed.), Baseball Reference.com, Wikipedia, official league websites (most of which can be found under the umbrella of milb.com), and a great source for defunct leagues, Indy League Graveyard. I have no copyright on anything here, it's all public information, but it's never all been in one place before, in this layout. Copyrights belong to their respective owners, including but not limited to MLB, MiLB, and the independent leagues. The first section will list active leagues. Some have historical predecessors that will be found in the next section. LEAGUE ASSOCIATIONS The modern minor league system traces its roots to the formation of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues (NAPBL) in 1902, an umbrella organization that established league classifications and a salary structure in an agreement with Major League Baseball. The group simplified the name to “Minor League Baseball” in 1999. MINOR LEAGUE BASEBALL Patrick Powers, 1901 – 1909 Michael Sexton, 1910 – 1932

Black Bases/Black Ice: The Multi-Sport Careers of Canadian Black Athletes and the Struggle for Social Justice Colin Howell The history of sport and race in North America has often been presented as a story of advancement from segregation to inclusion, part of a broader and unfolding process of modernization. This liberal narrative, conforming to a belief in social progress, celebrates the gradual vanquishing of intolerance over the course of the 20thcentury. The careers of black baseball and hockey players in the first half of the century, however, suggest a more complicated and ambiguous history, where race relations are continuously framed and reframed in ways that secure (white) hegemonic influence and demand a continuing struggle for social justice and equality for people of colour and others suffering various forms of dispossession.

  • Telling the Stories of Race and Sport in Canada
    Manny McIntyre: Black, Canadian Baseball and Hockey Pioneer 1930s – 1950s John Lutz and Bill Young I am honoured to participate in this Symposium – Telling the Stories of Race and Sports in Canada. Baseball historian Bill Young and I collaborated closely in preparing this presentation about baseball and hockey pioneer Vincent Churchill “Manny” McIntyre. I saw him play hockey when I was 11 and12. I was born with my hearing loss, felt different and sought difference. When I saw Manny play, I was awestruck by this powerful skater and talented player; he was black, he was different and became an instant hero to me, along with Babe Ruth, Willie Mays, Gordie Howe and Terry Sawchuk. I met Manny as an adult and we became friends. Bill also an admirer of Manny McIntyre – saw him play hockey for Sherbrooke and it was that commonality which drew us together. Today, we hope the story of Manny comes to mean as much to you as it does to us. Manny McIntyre was a gifted man, a natural athlete who worked hard and became one of this country’s great athletes. His story is unique in Canadian Sports history. A black athlete from Fredericton, New Brunswick, he excelled in both hockey and baseball well into his later years. He was a journeyman and played for whatever team would have him in the Maritimes, Quebec, Ontario and even in France. 27 28 John Lutz and Bill Young He was however, victim of a society that did not provide black people including athletes the same rights and opportunities as others of his era.

    Minor League Transactions: Sept. 26-Oct. 2 • The first wave of free agents entered the marketplace on Oct. 1 as 43 players elected free agency, the majority of them under Article XX(D) of the Collective Bargaining Agreement. It reads in part: “Any player who has at least three years of major league service, or who qualified as a “Super Two” player . and whose contract is assigned outright to a minor league club may elect, in lieu of accepting such assignment, to become a free agent. In the event that such a player with at least three years of major league service does not elect free agency in lieu of accepting such assignment, he may elect free agency between the end of the then current major league season and the next following Oct. 15, unless such player is returned to a major league roster prior to making such election.” • The recalls in this installment are paperwork moves owing to the fact that, with the minor league season and playoffs concluded, players can no longer be sent on optional assignments. According to MLR 11(b)4 “A Major League Club may recall a player not to report after the conclusion of the championship season of the Minor League Club to which the player is on optional assignment but no later than October 1” Arizona Diamondbacks Signed: RHP Seth Lintz (Laredo (American Association)), RHP Dustin Loggins (Kansas City (American Association)), RHP Jacob Roberts (Bridgeport (Atlantic)), LHP Sean Mahley (Schaumburg (Frontier)), OF Dan Bowman (Lake Erie (Frontier)), OF Steve McQuail (Schaumburg (Frontier)) Elected free agency:
