The history is in the names
Nothing about this league's past is published: no start date, no former clubs, no explanation of the name. The association keeps the J.D. Brennan Sportsmanship Trophy, the Mike Downes Memorial Awards and the Minnesota Amateur Baseball Hall of Fame, and none of those pages names a 13/60 club or player.
What is left is the Cleveland Spiders and the Morristown Morries, which were not chosen by a committee and not chosen recently, plus whatever is in somebody's scrapbook. Every season played on High Cheese is kept, so a league that starts now has ten years of its own record before anyone has to go looking for the box.
13/60 League in detail
- Nine teams out of south-central Minnesota, sorted by letter instead of age.
- The league posts no schedule anyone can link to.
- Eight teams in the table, and two pages on the same site that do not agree.
- No results page. The standings are the only surviving evidence.
- No roster page. Who plays is a town matter.
- Wins, losses, run differential. That is the whole statistical record.
- No officer, email or phone number is published for this league.
- No form, no posted fee, no deadline.
- No ballpark list, though the club names give the towns away.
- No local rulebook. The league plays the association handbook.
- The association feed runs hot all August and never once says Waseca.
- No album, no gallery, nothing visual at all.
- No sponsor page, though the money comes from somewhere.
- Where a 13/60 season points: the state tournament, bracketed by letter.
- No officers, no committee, nobody listed as running it.
- No FAQ, and the obvious questions are exactly the unanswered ones.
- The paperwork a club here deals with, all of it filed upstairs.
- No calendar, no posted season start, no posted end.
- Nothing for sale. There is no merchandise page.
- No crew listed. The forms that govern them are association forms.
