The franchise had first appeared in the league as the Americus Cardinals, a St. Louis Cardinals affiliate, from 1935 through 1938. After the war it returned as the Americus Phillies from 1946 through 1950. Among the players who came through that postwar club was Jack Sanford, who pitched for the Phillies in 1949, won the National League Rookie of the Year award with San Francisco in 1957, and went 24-7 for the Giants during their 1962 pennant run. The franchise played one final season as the Americus Rebels in 1951 before relocating to Thomasville, where it became the Thomasville Tomcats in 1952.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmericus reached the league finals in 1946, losing to Moultrie, and 1950, losing to Tallahassee. Shoeless Joe Jackson, permanently banned from organized baseball following the 1919 Black Sox scandal, played semiprofessionally in Americus in the 1920s after his banishment from the game.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRetro Baseball Revival celebrates historic baseball teams with unique apparel, honoring their legacy and bringing history to one-of-a-kind clothing with our old school retro baseball tees from defunct Minor League Baseball teams.
