The Ashland Fruit Company baseball team hailed from Ashland, Kentucky, and played in the Eastern Kentucky Baseball league against teams from Louisa, Owingsville, and Olive Hill in the 1930s. Though their time on the diamond was brief, they are part of Kentucky's rich early baseball history. As far as we know, the fruit company itself lasted until at least 1950.
