Springfield Ponies

[citation needed] The team finished atop league standings three times at the end of a full regular season (1895, 1908, and 1911) and once at the end of a truncated regular season (1932).

The team won playoff series twice (1895 and 1927), although it played mostly in leagues without postseasons.

Two fellow inductees played for Springfield late in their careers: Dan Brouthers (1896–1899)[1] and Jim O'Rourke (1903, 1907).

The following table lists each season between 1893 and 1943, when teams from Springfield competed primarily as the Ponies.
