They played as the Colts from 1937 to 1939, then the Centreville Red Sox from 1940 to 1941 as a Boston Red Sox affiliate, and finally the Centreville Orioles in 1946 as a Cleveland Indians affiliate, their only season under that name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat 1946 season was the high point of Centreville's brief minor league history. The club went 88-37, the most dominant regular season in Eastern Shore League history, finishing 11.5 games ahead of second-place Milford and leading the league in runs scored. Centreville won the championship that year, beating Milford 4 games to 1 in the finals, then folded after the season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat made the run remarkable was the town behind it. Centreville's postwar population was about 1,100, yet the club drew 42,500 fans across 62 home games, nearly 700 fans a night, with some games topping 1,500 and a playoff game against Dover drawing 2,550, more than double the town's population.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Eastern Shore League was a Class D league that ran on the Delmarva Peninsula across three separate stretches: 1922 to 1928, 1937 to 1941, and 1946 to 1949, with teams drawn from Maryland, Delaware, and Virginia.\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.
