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 -

No. 7 - DECEMBER 2019
News No. 7 - DECEMBER 2019 Our photo this time is from the official collection of Charles Roberts, the Wakefield-based builders of bodywork for buses, trams, lorries, railway rolling stock and lots more. Here are four Albion Valkyrie PW65 with 35-seat rear entrance bodies, part of a large order in 1932 for MacShanes of Bootle who had recently expanded into stage carriages services. Many of these vehicles would see further service with Red and White Services, which had been appointed temporary managers of MacShanes before the business passed to Ribble in 1933. Wishing all our Readers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy 2020! HIGHLIGHTS IN THIS ISSUE incorporating Coach Cruising with Southdown Helping the Chatham restoration Pilchers Coaches Sentinel Steam and Early Aerial Post Page 1 New Arrivals It’s been a busy time at The Bus Archive; lots of people both in the industry and enthusiasts have been responding to us by donating lots and lots of new (old) material… Peter Greaves has decided to downsize his collection and has donated his work on local operators around Oldham, Lancashire and detailed records and photographs on coachbuilder Bellhouse, Hartwell. There is also a large collection of sound recordings of various bus types, taken of both preserved and ‘in service’ vehicles. We even have Peter’s cassette tape recorder complete with muffled microphone! The Bellhouse, Hartwell collection includes this official shot of a 1949 Crossley SD42/7 for Smiths of Wigan. There are also a number of official photograph albums from London-based coachbuilder Duple, including this Dennis Arrow which was new to Victory of Salisbury in 1931. -
2020 Book News Welcome to Our 2020 Book News
2020 Book News Welcome to our 2020 Book News. It’s hard to believe another year has gone by already and what a challenging year it’s been on many fronts. We finally got the Hallmark book launched at Showbus. The Red & White volume is now out on final proof and we hope to have copies available in time for Santa to drop under your tree this Christmas. Sorry this has taken so long but there have been many hurdles to overcome and it’s been a much bigger project than we had anticipated. Several other long term projects that have been stuck behind Red & White are now close to release and you’ll see details of these on the next couple of pages. Whilst mentioning bigger projects and hurdles to overcome, thank you to everyone who has supported my latest charity fund raiser in aid of the Christie Hospital. The Walk for Life challenge saw me trekking across Greater Manchester to 11 cricket grounds, covering over 160 miles in all weathers, and has so far raised almost £6,000 for the Christie. You can read more about this by clicking on the Christie logo on the website or visiting my Just Giving page www.justgiving.com/fundraising/mark-senior-sue-at-60 Please note our new FREEPOST address is shown below, it’s just: FREEPOST MDS BOOK SALES You don’t need to add anything else, there’s no need for a street name or post code.
