Bol In 1889, the Louisville Colonels, the city's major league baseball team, lost 111 games, won only 27, and went bankrupt in midseason. The new owners found there was not one manager with any history of success willing to take the reins due to the club's poor reputation. Two trades were made to bring in veteran players who could help the team; both players refused to report to Louisville. When the 1890 season arrived, only minor leaguers were on the club's roster, and its manager had a consistent losing streak. Yet, over the course of that astonishing year, the team surged to the top of the standings, quickly earning a new name that stuck-the Louisville Cyclones. This book tells the history of the underdog Cyclones' record-breaking 1890 season.
