Product Description

History: The Mexican National League was set up by Organized Baseball to try to thwart Jorge Pascual's outlaw Mexican League, which was trying to entice major league players with higher salaries. Although the league withdrew from OB in late May, there was an 11-game post-season series played between The Juarez Indios and the Chihuahua Dorados, won by Juarez. El Paso was the sole U.S. entry in the league.

History: The West Coast Baseball Association was an attempt at a western Negro League competitor, but it only lasted one season. The Seattle entry in the league was actually Abe Saperstein's Harlem Globetrotter baseball team under a new name, that of a local variety of salmon.
