Baseball in Battle Creek (Michigan, Southwest Michigan)


Player Roster

Players who played for teams in Battle Creek, Michigan, during its tenure as a Midwest League city. This list includes all players and coaching staff members I can identify, and selected front office staff. There are almost certainly players missing from this list, as the available sources are known to be incomplete.

Players who played in Battle Creek for more than one season are listed for each season.

386 different players are listed on this page (50 of whom have played in the majors), as are 47 non-playing personnel; many are listed more than once.


My intention is to include everyone who wore a Michigan, Battle Creek, or Southwest Michigan uniform on an MWL diamond. While the information here is intended to be both complete and accurate, it's likely that there are omissions and the scale of the project guarantees errors; there's a lot of data here, from a variety of sources, all of which was originally in another format.

I will correct errors, or fill in missing birthdates and uniform numbers as I learn of them. Feel free to help; just drop me a line. Thanks.

There's more information about the MWL Roster project on my blog, A Dabbler's Journal.
