In mid-February it settled on Gems instead, a play on the Netted Gem potatoes grown across the Klamath country and a hope that the team would be a jewel of the league.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGus Triandos played catcher and first base for the 1950 pennant winners and hit .347 with a league-leading 183 hits; with Baltimore he became a three-time American League All-Star and caught Hoyt Wilhelm's 1958 no-hitter. Hub Kittle, who managed the 1949 and 1950 clubs, later coached pitchers for the 1982 World Series champion Cardinals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Far West League was a Class D circuit that ran from 1948 through 1951 with clubs in California, Nevada and Oregon, eight teams for its first three seasons and six in its last. It disbanded in January 1952 after Pittsburg, Redding and Medford withdrew, with the Korean War draft thinning the supply of young players.\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.
