Madison Blues Hoodie - Vintage Defunct Baseball Teams - WisconsinThe Madison Blues, based in Madison, Wisconsin, were founded in 1923 by the Madison Athletic Association and spent nearly two decades working their way up through Wisconsin's minor league ladder. They started as an independent club, joined the Wisconsin Illinois League in 1926, moved to the Wisconsin State League (1928 31 and 1934 37), and won the Tri State League championship in 1938 over the Sheboygan Chairmakers.

The Madison Blues, based in Madison, Wisconsin, were founded in 1923 by the Madison Athletic Association and spent nearly two decades working their way up through Wisconsin's minor league ladder. They started as an independent club, joined the Wisconsin-Illinois League in 1926, moved to the Wisconsin State League (1928-31 and 1934-37), and won the Tri-State League championship in 1938 over the Sheboygan Chairmakers. In 1940 they stepped up to the Class B Illinois-Indiana-Iowa League, the highest level the franchise ever reached.

Their Three-I seasons were played out against the backdrop of wartime. The Blues went 61-62 in 1940 (sixth place), 52-71 in 1941 (seventh place), and 55-62 in 1942 as a Chicago Cubs affiliate, that final season making the playoffs before losing to the Cedar Rapids Cubs 3-0 in the finals. All three seasons were played at Breese Stevens Field, a brick grandstand on Madison's east side that had become the first sports facility in Wisconsin with electric lights when floodlights were installed in 1931. Warren Spahn, later the Hall of Fame left-hander and winner of 363 major league games, pitched against the Blues in 1941 as a member of the visiting Evansville Bees. Jesse Owens, the four-time gold medalist from the 1936 Berlin Olympics, ran exhibition races at the field in 1938 during a Blues home game.

The 1942 season was the Blues' last. Wartime demands on players and resources depleted the league's rosters, and Madison did not return. When the Three-I reorganized for 1946, the Davenport Cubs took the slot Madison had vacated, and the Blues identity never came back.

The Three-I League (also known as the Illinois-Indiana-Iowa League) was a Class B circuit that ran from 1901 through 1961, with pauses for World War I, the Great Depression, and World War II. Though rooted primarily in Illinois, Indiana, and Iowa, the league also drew clubs from Missouri, Wisconsin, Kansas, Nebraska, and Minnesota as its core membership contracted in later years.

Good Pillows to Show Off Decorative Pillow Shams
Size: Queen - 20"*30" (pack of 2), Color: Grey
Although we have queen-sized beds, we typically use standard-sized pillows. One of the quilt sets I got this Christmas time came with queen sized pillow shams, and the standard pillows just didn't fill them properly. I could have sewn flanges on either side of the shams, but I decided to order these pillows instead. The are almost wide enough to fully fill those shams that started all this additional purchasing. (I also ended up ordering pillow protectors for the queen sized pillows.) The pillows are fluffy and substantial for now. My husband manages to flatten out pillows almost no matter how they start our. For now, so far so good. They re a medium-weight and fullness, I would say. They do a good job of showing off the pillow sham design, so that's a plus. I'm not planning for us to sleep on them, but they are added back support while watching TV. They are primarily for decorative purposes when the bed is made with the quilt and shams. They were a reasonable value for the intended purpose.
