I do know that MC Napier used their old jerseys sometime in the late 50's and would love to find one of those old flannels.

could go down to the river bank with a metal detector and find some old stuff...... Of course, how many old cars is down there? I would imagine most stuff would have washed away in the floods after they left. The actual bleachers were found but have since rotted. I have a seat from Crosley Field and a few from Riverfront........
I wander if I can hire some of these guys stealing copper to break in Great American Ballpark and steal me a seat! Just kidding.......

I have a pretty nice size baseball collection but NOTHING from that team. Well, I do have a Podres card with Hazard and Mountain State League on the back. Check with her, give us the details of who she dated if you don't mind.....

Danny Hayline was a better pitcher than Podres but got hurt and never did much afterwards.
Podres was a great pitcher when the World Series rolled around and that is his claim to fame.

I remember the Hazard Bombers very well. My younger Brother and I would hitch-hike or walk over to the the park and set upon the bank beyound the left field fence (best seat in the house) and watch the game. We never missed a night game.

Hazard 999, you did an excellent job with the Hazard Bomber pictures. Thanks, Carlene. I guess I should have said that those pictures are of the display at Bobby Davis Museum.

Everything I have seen has said that the Bombers played in Hazard from 1948-1952.

Call Martha Quigley at the Bobby Davis Museum in Hazard and see if she knows. They have a Bomber's uniform there that was cut down to fit the bat boy.

I think the bat boy was Claude Crook, Jr.
