The Cowboys played at Jaycee Field in Twin Falls, Idaho, located in the northeast corner of the city's Harmon Park.
[citation needed] The Cowboys were second in the Pioneer League in 1950, posting a 76–50 record under manager Wally Berger.
[6] However, the team lost its biggest offensive threat in Dick Conway, a 6 feet 3 inches (1.91 m) tall catcher from Lynn, Massachusetts.
Conway, 19, was in his first season of professional baseball and leading the Pioneer League in home runs (12) at the time of his death.
He was killed during a pre-game warm-up in Ogden, Utah, on June 29, 1951,[7] when he was struck over the heart by a throw from Trower while distracted; he died within minutes of the impact.
