Minor League Baseball Programs: Lakeland to Norwich

Note: This page is part of a finding aid to the minor league baseball game programs and scorecards located in the Joyce Sports Research Collection, University Libraries of Notre Dame. It includes all programs issued by minor league professional baseball clubs whose franchise names (i. e., their home cities or, on occasion, states) begin with "L," "M," or "N". Programs are arranged alphabetically by issuing (home) club, and thereunder by date. The opponent, when indicated on the insert, follows the date. When programs are held from teams in the same city representing more than one league, these are listed separately.

Some programs in this finding aid may be indicated as either "scored" or "partially scored." "Scored" programs must meet two criteria. First, they must be scored completely, with an entry for each batter that appeared in the game. Second, they must employ a notation specific enough to allow for a reasonably thorough recreation of the game's play-by-play. A key point in this regard is the attribution of putouts and assists; no program utilizing a notation with generic out markings is considered scored. Programs indicated as "partially scored" have been scored either incompletely or in a notation that leaves obvious questions regarding the game's play-by-play. Thus, "partially scored" programs may have only the lineups entered, or they may be scored completely but ambiguously. Other features that may characterize individual programs - autographs, for example, or ephemera like ticket stubs - are present as noted. All materials are housed in the Department of Special Collections, 102 Hesburgh Library.
