Sumter Chicks
The Sumter Chicks were a minor league baseball team based in Sumter, South Carolina, United States that played in the Tri-State League in 1949 and 1950. History The Sumter Chicks were preceded by the Sumter Game Cocks, who played as members of the South Carolina League in 1907 and 1908. Sumter won the league championship in both seasons. It was reported that Sumter defeated Chester 2–1 in 10–innings on July 24, 1908. It was noted in the Chester newspaper, on July 28, 1908, that "some of the fans were greatly disappointed at the very rude manner in which they were treated while in Sumter last week." On July 27, 1908, Sumter was in 1st place with a 39–26 record, with the season soon to conclude, as reported in newspaper standings.

The Sumter Gamecocks ended the 1908 South Caro ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Baseball Teams Disestablished In 1950
Baseball is a bat-and-ball sport played between two teams of nine players each, taking turns batting and fielding. The game occurs over the course of several plays, with each play generally beginning when a player on the fielding team, called the pitcher, throws a ball that a player on the batting team, called the batter, tries to hit with a bat. The objective of the offensive team (batting team) is to hit the ball into the field of play, away from the other team's players, allowing its players to run the bases, having them advance counter-clockwise around four bases to score what are called " runs". The objective of the defensive team (referred to as the fielding team) is to prevent batters from becoming runners, and to prevent runners' advance around the bases. A run is scored when a runner legally advances around the bases in order and touches home plate (the place where the player started as a batter). The principal objective of the batting team is to have a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
