1905 SOUTHERN ASSOCIATION
Teams: Atlanta Crackers Birmingham Barons Little Rock Travelers Memphis Egyptians Montgomery Senators Nashville Volunteers New Orleans Pelicans Shreveport Pirates Schedule Characteristics: SCHEDULE type="ILN_BGY_G143_T8_C_" inter_league="0" balanced_games="1" games_per_team="143" start_month="4" start_day="19" start_day_of_week="4" Each team plays from 140 to 143 games. Teams play each other between 20 and 22 times during the season. Season starts on April 19 and ends on September 23. Weekday games start at 3:00. Saturday, Sunday and holiday (Confederate Memorial Day (4/24 - AL only), Decoration Day (5/30), Independence Day (7/4)) games start at 1:00. Double-header games start at noon and 3:00. Sunday games only at Memphis, New Orleans, and Shreveport. This should really be a 140-game schedule. The extra games are the result of adding some Sunday games, no doubt to generate additional revenue. Southern Association 1905.lsdl |

1912 CENTRAL LEAGUE
Teams: Akron Rubbermen Canton Statesmen Dayton Veterans Erie Sailors Ft. Wayne Railroaders Grand Rapids Black Sox South Bend Benders Springfield Reapers Terre Haute Terre-iers Wheeling Stogies Youngstown Steelmen Zanesville Potters Schedule Characteristics: SCHEDULE type="ILN_BGY_G132_T12_C_" inter_league="0" balanced_games="1" games_per_team="132" start_month="4" start_day="24" start_day_of_week="4" Each team plays 132 games. Teams play each other 12 times during the season. Season starts on April 24 and ends on September 2. Weekday games start at 3:00. Saturday and Sunday games start at 1:00. Double-header games on holidays (Decoration Day (5/30), Independence Day (7/4), and Labor Day (9/2)) start at noon and 3:00, except for split home-and-home double-headers between Akron and Canton, which start at 10:00 and 3:00. This is a very unusual twelve-team minor-league schedule from the railroad era. The vast majority of minor leagues had six or eight teams, and the Central League, which had eight clubs in 1911, was reduced to six teams in 1913. Central League 1912.lsdl |

1913 BORDER LEAGUE
Teams: (all teams located in Michigan except for Windsor) Mt. Clemens Bathers Pontiac Indians Port Huron Independents Windsor (ONT) Wyandotte Ypsilanti Schedule Characteristics: SCHEDULE type="ILN_BGY_G45_T6_C_" inter_league="0" balanced_games="1" games_per_team="45" start_month="5" start_day="24" start_day_of_week="7" Each team plays 45 games. Teams play each other 9 times during the season, and teams play between 20 and 25 home/road games. Season starts on May 24 and ends on September 14. Thursday games start at 3:00. Saturday, Sunday and holiday (Decoration Day (5/30), Independence Day (7/4), and Labor Day (9/1)) games start at 1:00. Baseball Reference says that this was a "D" league. From the looks of the schedule, it might have been semi-pro. Apart from its length, the odd thing about this schedule is that The Sporting Life would have even printed it - there aren't a lot of examples of the major baseball publications printing schedules from the lowest rung of the minors, especially for a league with such a short season.

Thanks, I appreciate that.
I'll also add that I'm happy to accommodate requests (within reason). If someone wants the schedule for a past minor league season, I'll be happy to oblige. Of course, that might require providing the schedule along with the request - I don't have every past minor league schedule at my disposal. |

1912 PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE
Teams: Los Angeles Angels Oakland Oaks Portland Beavers Sacramento Sacts San Francisco Seals Vernon Tigers Schedule Characteristics: SCHEDULE type="ILN_BGY_G212_T6_C_" inter_league="0" balanced_games="1" games_per_team="212" start_month="4" start_day="2" start_on_weekday="3" Each team plays between 199 and 212 games. Teams play each other between 39 and 46 times during the season. Season starts on April 2 and ends on October 27. Double-headers on holidays - Memorial Day (5/30), Independence Day (7/4), Labor Day (9/2), Admission Day (9/9 - California), and Columbus Day (10/12) - and on most Sundays. Weekday games start at 3:00. Weekend games start at 1:00. Double-header games start at noon and 3:00. Even by Pacific Coast League standards, this is a long schedule - nearly seven months. The wide discrepancy in games played is the result of Portland and Sacramento playing only single games at home on Sundays - all other teams play double-headers. The breakdown (away/home) is as follows: Los Angeles - 99/113 = 212 Oakland - 103/108 = 211 Portland - 106/93 = 199 Sacramento - 105/94 = 199 San Francisco - 103/109 = 212 Vernon - 106/105 = 211 Pacific Coast League 1912.lsdl

In 1900, Chicago and Cleveland would replace St. Paul and Grand Rapids, respectively, and the league would be renamed the American League. Western League 1899.lsdl

Typically, baseball leagues at all levels scheduled double-headers for each of the summer holidays (Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Labor Day). Kansas State League 1913.lsdl |

1925 INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE
Teams: Baltimore Orioles Buffalo Bisons Jersey City Skeeters Newark Bears Reading Keystones Rochester Tribe Syracuse Stars Toronto Maple Leafs (the Newark Bears were replaced mid-season by the Providence Grays) Schedule Characteristics: SCHEDULE type="ILN_BGY_G168_T8_C_" inter_league="0" balanced_games="1" games_per_team="168" start_month="4" start_day="15" start_day_of_week="4" Each team plays 168 games. Teams play each other 24 times during the season. Season starts on April 15 and ends on September 20. Weekday games start at 3 :00. Weekend games start at 1:00. No Sunday games at Toronto. Double-header games start at noon and 3:00, except for split home-and-home double-header games between Rochester and Buffalo, which begin at 10:00 and 3:00. I had to guess a lot more than usual with this because of the poor state of the posted schedule, but I think I got it mostly right. International League 1925.lsdl

1937 SOUTHERN ASSOCIATION
Teams: Atlanta Crackers Birmingham Barons Chattanooga Lookouts Knoxville Smokies Little Rock Travelers Memphis Chicks Nashville Volunteers New Orleans Pelicans Schedule Characteristics: SCHEDULE type="ILN_BGY_G154_T8_C_" inter_league="0" balanced_games="1" games_per_team="154" start_month="4" start_day="16" start_day_of_week="6" Each team plays 154 games. Teams play each other 22 times during the season. Season starts on April 16 and ends on September 12. Weekday games start at 7:00. Weekend and holiday (Confederate Memorial Day (4/26 - Georgia and Alabama)) games start at 1:00. Weekend double-header games start at noon and 3:00. Weeknight (twi-night) double-header games start at 4:00 and 7:00. July 4 fell on a Sunday in 1937, so holiday double-headers were played on July 5. Oddly, Decoration Day also fell on a Sunday (May 30 and July 4 always fall on the same day of the week) but there were no double-headers scheduled for May 31, suggesting to me that that Monday wasn't a holiday - at least not in the South.

The major league start times might not be identical to those used in the minor leagues, but they're probably similar. See the attached .zip for a Wordpad file listing the historical start times for the NYC major league clubs in selected years from 1919-51. It's a work in progress—eventually more years will be added. |

I've added probably several hundred more minor league schedules to the collection since then. I've never sat down to update the catalog as it would probably take several hours to do... Incidentally, some years back I went through all the online issues of The Sporting News and made a list of every minor league schedule I could find printed in it, noting the league, season, TSN edition date and page number. I can post that list if anyone's interested. |
