  • The Curse of the Middle Atlantic League
    Baseball in Wartime Newsletter Vol. 8 No. 43 June 2016 June 8 No. 43 Vol. Newsletter in Wartime Baseball The Curse of the Middle Atlantic League Gary Bedingfield The Curse of the Middle Atlantic League During World War II, more than 400 major league players together with 4,000 minor leaguers, put down their bats and gloves to serve their country. Not all of them came home. Professional baseball failed to keep tabs on exactly how many players made the ultimate sacrifice while in military service. For many years, prior to my research over the last decade, the figure was believed to be around 40 or so. Since I started my endless digging through various archives, that figure has risen to 147. Some died on the battlefields, some in the air, others while in training, but they all had one thing in common, professional baseball had been a part of their lives, and whether it was as a volunteer or through being drafted, they courageously served their country to the end. In addition to the two major league players (Elmer Gedeon and Harry O’Neill), players who died in service came from all levels of minor league baseball, from the lowly Class D circuits to Class AA, the highest classification at the time. And one league, the Class C Middle Atlantic League – which was an eight-team circuit of clubs from Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor - led the way with 20 players passing through its ranks and losing their lives while associated with the military.
