Baseball
has had a long and interesting history in Tacoma. The goal of
this section is to give the reader a general overview of the players,
owners, and facilities that are part of the fabric of Tacoma's
Baseball history. The history is currently starting in 1902 and
is current through the 2006 season. I will not be putting much
detail into the modern teams and facilities as that is not the
focus of this web site. I have included links on the links page
to various sites that provide modern Baseball information if you
are interested in finding out more on Tacoma's current Baseball
situation.
Tacoma
was the Pacific Coast League Champions in 1904, 1961, 1969,
1978(co-champions) and 2001(co-champions). Tacoma is currently
the longest running city with a team in the PCL.
Tacoma
played in the
Western International league in 1922 and from 1937 to 1942
and from 1946 until 1951. The Tigers were the league champions
three times 1937, 1939, and 1940.
I am always
looking for more details to help fill out the information. If
you have anything that you feel would be of interest please email
me and I will be happy to add the information to the site.
