History
Ilion first began minor league play in 1901, when the Ilion Typewriters became members of the Class C level New York State League.[1] Ilion would play four seasons in the New York State League before folding.[2]
The Ilion use of the "Typewriters" moniker corresponds to local industry, as E. Remington and Sons, founded in 1816 by Eliphalet Remington, was located in Ilion, New York and known for manufacturing the first commercial typewriter.[3]
Beginning play in 1901 as members of the eight–team Class C New York State League, the Ilion Typewriters finished their first professional season in last place with a record of 23–82.[4] Ilion finished in eighth place in the New York State League, playing under manager Tim Shinnick, finishing 44.0 games behind the first place Albany Senators. In the final standings, Ilion finished behind fellow league members Albany Senators (72–43), Binghamton Bingoes (69–45), Cortland Wagonmakers/Waverly Wagonmakers (36–68), Rome Romans (62–47), Schenectady Electricians (65–50), Troy Trojans (46–62) and Utica Pent-Ups (68–44).[5][6][7] Ilion hosted home minor league games at Russell Park.[8]
Ilion continued play, as the 1902 New York State League was elevated to become a Class B level league.[9] The 1902 Ilion Typewriters finished with a record of 59–47, placing third in the New York State League, playing the season under manager Howard Earl. Ilion finished 9.5 games behind the first place Albany Senators in the final standings.[5][10][11]
Ilion placed seventh in the 1903 Class B level New York State League.[12] Under returning manager Howard Earl, the Typewriters ended the season with a 52–73 record, finishing 24.5 games behind the league champion Schenectady Frog Alleys.[5][13][14]
Playing under manager Jack Sharrott, the 1904 Ilion Typewriters placed third in the New York State League.[15] With a 75–56 record, Ilion finished 14.0 games behind the first place Syracuse Stars in the New York State League final standings.[5][16][17] The Ilion Typewriters franchise did not return to the New York State League after the 1904 season, with the Ilion being replaced by the Wilkes-Barre Barons in the eight–team 1905 league.[18]
Ilion continued play in 1905 and joined the Independent level Empire State League to begin the season.[19] On July 10, 1905, the Ilion franchise relocated to Fulton, New York. The Ilion/Fulton team finished with a 20–39 overall record, placing 6th in the 1905 Empire State League. Minor league baseball has not returned to Ilion, New York.[20][21]
