Baseball In Marion

Marion was always a big baseball fan.  Seems they had teams even in the early 1900's.  It was a favorite sport of the community.

This is one of those picture postcards with one of the teams featured of 1908.  It says one of the best in Western Kentucky.  (I wish they had used their whole names)
