The Pelicans play at Sportsman’s Park, what is now City Park Avenue near the Expressway. The Pelicans win a second pennant in 1889. 1901: Southern League reorganizes as the Southern Association. Abner Powell becomes the fi rst Pelican manager of the new century as the team fi nishes fourth. They play at Athletic Park, which was then at the corner of Tulane Avenue between South Carrollton and South Pierce. 1902-1905: The Pelicans fi nish last in 1903 and hire Charley Frank as their new manager, and he steers the club for 10 years. The Pelicans claim the pennant in 1905, despite having to play many of their scheduled home games on the road as New Orleans is quarantined due to a yellow fever epidemic. 1908-1913: The Pelicans move to a new location in 1908, bound by South Carrollton, Palmyra, Banks and Scott. A contest is conducted to name the new site and Pelican Park is the winning entry. For the next seven years, the new stadium witnesses many historic events, such as Theo Breitenstein’s no-hitter in 1909, Joe Jackson’s league-leading .354 batting average in 19010, and back-to-back pennant winners in 1910 and 1911. 1914-1922: Johnny Dobbs becomes the new Pelicans manager in 1914. After the season, the park is moved from Carrollton and Banks to Carrollton and Tulane Avenues, where it is renamed Heinemann Park after the club’s owner, A.J. Heinemann. The Pelicans win the pennant in 1914 and add another in 1918. The only unassisted triple play in Southern Association history comes on August 6, 1916, when Pelican second baseman Cotton Knaupp turns it against Chattanooga. The 1918 campaign is curtailed because of World War I, the only year in which the league fails to complete its schedule. In 1921, the Pelicans pres- ent the team’s greatest batter in the person of Ike Boon, who fi nishes with a lofty .389 average. 1923-1932: In 1923, Larry Gilbert, who had originally joined the club as an outfi elder in 1917, takes over for Johnny Dobbs as manager. Gilbert brings a pennant to New Orleans in his fi rst season, and the Pelicans participate in its fi rst Dixie Series. The Pelicans lose the series to Fort Worth of the Texas League. 1926 and 1927 Pelican Stadium was home to professional baseball in New Orleans for 43 years. are banner seasons for the Pelicans, as they capture consecutive pennants, but are defeated in their bid for the Dixie championship. “Country” Davis brings the batting title to New Orleans with a .376 average in 1932. After four more years as manager, Gilbert moves to the front offi ce, and Jake Atz becomes the fi eld boss for one season in 1932. 1933-1938: Gilbert returns as manager and not only wins consecutive pennants in 1933 and 1934, but defeats San Antonio and Galveston for the Dixie Series titles as well. New Orleans plays its fi rst night game at Heinemann Park on May 15, 1936, losing to Atlanta in front of 11,000 fans. Gilbert moves on to manage the Nashville Vols after the 1938 season, and the Pelicans never win another championship. In 1938, Heinemann Park is re-named Pelican Park. 1939-1945: Following Gilbert’s 15 years as manager, there begins a parade of fi eld leaders, beginning with Roger Peckinpaugh in 1939 through Mel Parnell in 1959. As World War II sweeps the nation of its baseball talent, the war forces rapid change of personnel as players are called into service. In 1943, New Orleans wins the second half of a split season, but loses to Nashville in the playoff four games to one, as Larry Gilbert defeats his old team. 1946-1957: During this era, the Pelicans have several major league affi liates, including the Red Sox and Pirates. Just after the war in 1947, New Orleans has one of its fi nest teams. Al Flair sets a team record with 24 home runs, including a shot over the distant center fi eld fence at Pelican Stadium, but the Pelicans lose out in their bid for the pennant by a half-game to the Mobile Bears. Danny Murtaugh is manager from 1952-54, bringing the club into the playoffs against the Atlanta Crackers, who claim the title four games to two. Through the affi liating with the Pirates, New Orleans sees many of its players advance to the ma- jors, including Johnny Power, Gene and George Freese, Bob Skinner, Danny Kravitz and Murtaugh, who goes on to manage Pittsburgh.
