The Western League began in 1995 on the Western Coast of the United States with teams
in Oregon, Washington State and California as well as an old rodeo stadium in British Columbia. The league slowly grew to include franchise in Nevada and Utah while trying out a few of the Spring Training ballparks of Phoenix Arizona… trying unsuccessfully to take on the Arizona Diamondbacks as a cheaper alternative. While the league had a high amount of turnover with teams entering and exiting the league, some of its teams were successful enough to find a more permanent home in the Golden and North American Leagues starting in 2005 which grew out of the ashes of the Western Baseball League and ran from Texas through California and into Hawaii and Northern Canada. |
