  • Charles Mason First New Orleanian to Play Big League Ball
    A Schott From The Bleachers Charles Mason First New Orleanian to Play Big League Ball by Arthur O. Schott Listed on the roster of major league players is one Charles E. Mason. He appeared in a total of 21 games, hitting .183, with 15 hits in 82 times at bat. His career began in the old National Association (a predecessor of the National League) on April 26, 1875, with the Centennials of Philadelphia. After twelve games there, Mason went to the Washington club in the same league for eight games. Mason’s career ended in 1883 when “base ball” was still being written as two words. He appeared in the old American Association major league. He made one hit in two times at bat (a .500 average for his short career there). Why is this seemingly insignificant performance so long ago worthy of mention? Charles Mason was born on June 25, 1853 in New Orleans, Louisiana, and died October 21, 1936 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. That fact, coupled with his short major league career, entitles him to a record that can never be equaled: he was the first New Orleans native to play in a league of major classification. The accompanying box score is that of Charles Mason’s first game, when the New Orleans native played right field for the Centennials and contributed two hits in four times at bat.

  • 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
