Default reds in Welch WV with guns photo acquired

From 1937 to 1955 there was a minor league baseball team located in Welch WV. The Welch Miners claim to fame; they were no-hit by Ron Necciai and Necciai struck out all 27 Welch batters on 13 May 1952 in Bristol TN.
I grew up in Welch and would like some type of memorabilia from the team or to find and purchase some photos of the team, their field. players etc. I have looked on the internet and can find nothing other than team stats and one photo outside the park. I know this is a long shot but if anyone here knows anything about the Welch teams I would love to hear it.
They played in Welch @ Blakely Field and were members of the Mountain State League and Appalachian League.

Thanks, Donnie
