The club first appeared in 1926-27 in a Class B southeastern circuit, then found its true home in 1936, joining central Florida's league and winning the championship in its first season with a four-game sweep of Daytona Beach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Saints were a power for the next decade and a half, taking another title in 1949 as a Chicago Cubs affiliate and posting first-place seasons in 1941 and 1947 along the way. The franchise's most poignant story belongs to Forrest \"Lefty\" Brewer, a pitching phenom who threw a no-hitter for the Saints in 1938. Brewer jumped into Normandy with the 82nd Airborne on D-Day and was one of five professional and semipro ballplayers killed in the invasion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Saints folded in June 1952, undone by poor attendance and thin funds. Francis Field, their old home ground, still hosts events in St. Augustine today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Saints' league began play in 1919 as a Class D circuit of six teams clustered across central Florida, tracing what would later become the I-4 corridor decades before the interstate existed. The circuit ran through 1928, went dark during the Depression, returned in 1936, paused again for World War II, and resumed in 1946. Unlike most minor leagues of the era, it never truly died; the same circuit still operates across Florida today.\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.
