The League was renamed the All-American Girls' Professional Ball League, but unofficially it was referred to as the AAGBB e League grew from its four original teams 'in 1943' to a imum of ten teams in 1948.

Whittington 2011 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT John McGraw’s New York Giants were the premier team of the Deadball Era, which stretched from 1900-1919. Led by McGraw and his ace pitcher, Christy Mathewson, the Giants epitomized the Deadball Era with their strong pitching and hard-nosed style of play. In 1919 however, The New York Times and The Sporting News chronicled a surge in the number of home runs that would continue through the 1920s until the entire sport embraced a new era of baseball.

January 25, 1979 (aged 50) From the EHS Yearbook, the Maroon: G.A.A.: President 4, Class Council, Student Council Born in Elgin Illinois she played professional baseball in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League as an Infielder and she batted right and threw right and played for the Grand Rapids Chicks (1947), Chicago Colleens (1948) and the Rockford Peaches (1949–1950) Career highlights and awards: Three-time championship team (1947, 1949–1950) Women in Baseball – AAGPBL Permanent Display at Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum (1988) Charlene Ann Barnett Bio Charlene Barnett filled a consistent role during her four seasons in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League. A three-time champion team member, she was a versatile infielder, playing mainly at second base, while adding deep defense at third base and shortstop. Considered a light hitter, she combined her usual brilliant defense with a decent bit of offense for a hitter placed at bottom of the batting order. Barnett entered the league in 1947 with the Grand Rapids Chicks, playing for them one year. She hit a .115 batting average as a rookie, appearing in 33 games as a backup for Alma Ziegler (2B), Ernestine Petras (3B) and Doris Tetzlaff (SS). Grand Rapids, managed by Johnny Rawlings, defeated the South Bend Blue Sox in the first round of the playoffs, three games to two, and disposed of the Racine Belles in the final series, four games to three, to claim the champion title.
