The Spuds nickname came from sweet potato farming, a major crop in Parksley and the surrounding Eastern Shore of Virginia. Remarkably, Parksley supported a professional team despite a population of just 607 at the 1920 census, making it by far the smallest town in the league.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1924 Five-State Championship produced one of the league's best stories. With Parksley's regular catcher Joe Tagg sick before the series, the Spuds turned to a 16-year-old they'd borrowed from the Easton Farmers: Jimmie Foxx. Playing catcher for the first time in the series, Foxx drove in six runs in the opener (a 17-0 win) and hit .391 with 4 home runs as Parksley won the series 4 games to 2.\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.
