2020* — Note that the 2020 regular season was affected by Coronavirus and COVID-19, so many leagues scuttled their seasons after initial delays.  This led to a combination of startup and shortened-season leagues, many playing out of one or two stadiums for the regular season & playoffs/championships.  No league champion listed for 2020 played in a league as it intended to play as late as early March 2020.  Nonetheless, the players and coaches and league officials deserve recognition for their immense efforts to field good teams during this tumultuous season, and those listed will be recognized as being rightful champions of their leagues.

  • American Association (6 teams):  Milwaukee Milkmen

  1. The Frontier League will unveil it’s Hall of Fame at the 2014 All Star Game held at Gateway Grizzlies ball park. I’m trying to get photos of, if not purchase, what the leagues championship teams were given for wining the championship.
    I’m a bit surprised that the league has no record of what was so it will be up to the teams, staff, owners etc, themselves to help me.

    Any thing will be appreciated
