The Winchester Hustlers were a minor league team based in Winchester, Kentucky, active in the early 1900s. They competed in the Class D Blue Grass League, a circuit of small-town teams from central Kentucky, from 1908 through 1912.
The Hustlers won the league title in 1909 with a 75-44 record. That same year, pitcher Fred Toney threw a 17-inning no-hitter against the Lexington Colts on May 10, 1909, which remains the longest no-hitter in organized baseball. Toney went on to pitch for a number of major league teams between 1911 and 1923.
The Hustlers continued in the Blue Grass League through 1912, when the team relocated to Mount Sterling. The Blue Grass League itself folded after the 1912 season.
