One of the American League's eight charter franchises, the club was founded in Washington, DC, in 1901 as the Washington Senators. In 1905 the team changed its name to the Washington Nationals. But, fans and newspapers persisted in using the 'Senators' nickname. This title tells the story of this baseball team.
America's first professional baseball team was established in 1868 - Cincinnati's Red Stockings. This book chronicles each season from the organization's early years, most notably the 1882 American Association pennant and the 1919 and 1940 National League pennants, and World Series championships, including the infamous Chicago White Sox scandal.
Beginning with the organization's early years as the Cleveland Forest Citys, this book covers the 1920 World Series victory over the Brooklyn Dodgers, and concludes with the excitement of the 1948 pennant race. It also covers Cleveland legends, such as Cy Young, from his days in Tuscarawas County and Canton and his time with the Cleveland Spiders.
