    Minor League Presidents

    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

Abstract The First Fifty Years of Professional Baseball in Richmond, Virginia: 1883-1932 Scott Patrick Mayer Master of Arts in History ,University ofRichmond, May 2001 Advisor: Dr. W. Harrison Daniel A detailed history of Richmond, Virginia's relationship with professional baseball has never been chronicled, especially the turbulent, early years of its development. This study explores Richmond's relationship with baseball from 1883-1932. It includes information about the men who played on the field, the team owners, and also comments on the relationship shared by the team and the city. The most reliable source of information regarding early baseball is the local newspaper. A detailed reading of the Richmond Daily Dispatch, and the successive Richmond Dispatch and Richmond Times-Dispatch, was undertaken for this project. While several newspapers have existed in Richmond's history, often competing for readership during the same period, the Dispatch was selected for its continuity in publication and for its support and consistent reporting ofbaseball.

    Milb Committee Spring07

    Spring 2007 March 28, 2007 Our Goal: THE COMPLETE ONLINE SABR MINOR LEAGUE ENCYCLOPEDIA Rod Nelson Research Services Manager t is with great excitement that I take this opportunity to address the hundreds of dedicated researchers and enthusiasts that make up the SABR Minor League Committee. This is truly an extraordinary time in the history of our organization and I I think that based on the news I’m about to share, you’ll certainly agree. We are pleased to announce that SABR has recently become the beneficiary of several remarkable compilations of minor league research. The first comes in the form of a massive database file that is the product of more than a dozen years of diligent work by Ed Washuta . Other recent contributions include an impressive collection of contemporary minor league ballpark photographs along with an index of historical ballpark data for playing grounds for clubs playing organized baseball in the United States, Canada and Mexico. SABR has agreed to preserve Gary Jarvis’ website ( www.minorleagueballparks.com ) and is in receipt of hun- dreds of additional digital photographs. Gord Brown has contributed his research files listing minor league ballpark site location, years of operation, teams and league usage, seating capacity, outfield dimensions and other miscellaneous information. Having these datasets available to be shared makes the goal of creating a comprehensive database of minor player statistics a worthy endeavor for the SABR Minor League Committee. Our preliminary plan is to integrate the following into the Online SABR Baseball Encyclopedia: ♦ 151,000+ unique post-1901 ballplayers with basic biodata (Name, DOB/POB; DOD/POD; B/T/ Ht/Wt for those debuting since 1942) ♦ 698,000+ Batting/Fielding/Pitching Records ♦ 3,030+ League/seasons official averages ♦ 24,100+ Team/season total (Continued on page 18) From the Chairman he 2007 baseball season is just days away and this edition of the Minor League Newsletter Beating the Bushes should whet your enthusiasm.
