Across those three stretches the Foxes were the longest-running name Columbus baseball ever had.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first run ended abruptly. The 1914 club went 55-67 behind Phil Redding, who struck out 184 batters to lead the league. Three seasons later, on May 19, 1917, Columbus disbanded mid-season along with Macon as the league contracted under wartime pressure, and the circuit shortened its schedule to end on the Fourth of July.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColumbus had first appeared in professional baseball much earlier, fielding the Stars in the Southern League in 1885 and the Babies in 1896. The Foxes name outlasted both by decades and stretched across three separate eras of the city's baseball history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the 1800s and first half of the 1900s, teams existed in thousands of small towns across the United States, as Americans looked for recreational activities and entertainment in the era before TV. Columbus sat at the western edge of a league built almost entirely on mid-sized Southern cities of exactly that kind.\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.
