Baltimore Black Sox

The Black Sox won the American Negro League pennant in 1929 with an infield of Jud Wilson, Frank Warfield, Dick Lundy and Oliver Marcell that was called the million-dollar infield at the time. The recorded record across 12 seasons is 295-290, which rests on surviving box scores rather than a complete count of games.

Eight Hall of Famers played here, among them Jud Wilson, who spent more time with the club than any of them, Ben Taylor, Pete Hill, Biz Mackey, Leon Day, Mule Suttles, Satchel Paige and Martín Dihigo. Warfield managed the pennant club and went 107-86.

Maryland Park was the ground first, Bugle Field afterward. The club moved between four leagues in twelve years as the Eastern circuits kept forming and folding, and it did not survive the Depression: it played its last season in 1934.
