Chris,
Thanks for sharing that thumbnail about Bentley. I wonder how many players had comparable hitting AND pitching stats....... Babe Ruth I guess While collecting t206, reading "the players and their stories" and "glory of their times", and watching all the threads showing t210's, I've really developed a mild fascination with the minor leagues (and all forms of organized baseball) back in the day. Anyone know just how many Minor Leagues and teams existed at their peak? Tony

I'm not sure what the answer is, but it likely can be found by following the links here ... www.baseball-reference.com/minors/league.cgi

If anyone's interested in reading some more about the great Orioles teams of 1919-25, I wrote a story about Bentley's teammate and fellow pitcher Harry Frank who played on those teams from 1919-1924. You can read it HERE.

1924 saints vs orioles
Years ago when my dad died I had the responsibility of going through some of his things. In this process I found several ticket stubs to the old Lexington ball park (St. Paul). They were dated 1923 and 1924. One of the stubs had printed on it "game 9". I couldn't figure out what game that could have been. Recently I read a SABR article dealing with the 1924 Little World Series between the St Paul Saints and the Baltimore Orioles (Won by the Saints in 10 games) It was only then did I realize I had a ticket stub from game 9 of that series. Guess who my dad saw pitching for the Orioles that day - Lefty Grove.
