The Midwest League is the Single-A home to the baseball stadiums of America’s Heartland.
The league began in 1947 as the Illinois State League. The name was changed
to the Mississippi Ohio Valley League in 1949 and finally to the Midwest League
in 1956 which it remains today. Teams come from Iowa, Kentucky, Wisconsin,
Indiana, Michigan, Illinois & Ohio and includes former members of the defunct
Three-I League (Illinois-Indiana-Iowa League) |
