The nickname was as literal as nicknames get. Park City was a silver camp in the Wasatch Range, built around the Ontario mine and the others that followed it up the canyon, and by 1901 the town's entire economy came out of the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first attempt went badly. Park City were charter members of a four-club circuit alongside the Ogden Lobsters, the Salt Lake City White Wings and a team that split its home games between Farmington and Salt Lake City. The Miners had a 3-20 record when the franchise disbanded on July 15, 1901, and every remaining game on the schedule was recorded as a forfeit. The final published standings show 3-39, last of four, 28 games behind an Ogden club that finished 31-10. The league itself folded after that single season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reference books end the story there, and they are wrong. Period newspapers carry the Park City Miners through most of the decade that followed, with games on record in 1902, 1904, 1905, 1906, 1907 and 1908. The pattern suggests a local independent club playing whoever was available rather than a fixed league entry, which is why the standard sources lost track of it. The 1906 season included a run in a circuit with Ogden, Salt Lake City and the Tintic mining town of Eureka, and games against the Salt Lake Occidentals, an all-Black club that barnstormed Utah and Idaho in those years and was among the strongest teams in the region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePark City's baseball ended along with the silver. The mines wound down across the following decades and the town rebuilt itself around skiing, but for most of a decade a mining camp in the Wasatch put a professional team on the field, lost almost every game it played in its first year, and came back anyway. In 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.\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.
