Hi Jan: In 1941 the Cheyenne Indians were the Western League team from Cheyenne, Wyoming. They had a record of 59-44 and finished 2nd. They lost in the first round of the playoffs. The managers name was John Kerr: John Francis Kerr Bats Right, Throws Right Height 5' 8", Weight 158 lb. Debut May 1, 1923 Final Game September 30, 1934 Born November 26, 1898 in San Francisco, CA USA Died October 19, 1993 in Long Beach, CA USA Here's the link where I found this information: http://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/Western_League Interesting is that if you click on the player info for the 1941 team it will show (Cowboy) following the name. Found lots of articles on the team...still looking for one which lists all of the players names! Laura |
