The Empire State League was a minor league baseball league that played from 1905 to 1907. The 14 different league franchises were based exclusively in New York (state). The league name was succeeded by the 1913 Empire State League based in Georgia and Empire State League (1987) based in New York (state).
History
On March 22, 1905, the Empire State League was formed at a meeting held in Syracuse, New York. The teams were selected and R.C. Mayor of Rome was elected secretary and treasurer. Salaries were set at $600.00 per month for each team.[1]
The 1905 Empire State League began play as an eight–team independent league on May 26, 1905. Seneca Falls won the championship with a 42–26 record and several teams folded or relocated during the 1905 season.[2][3]
In 1906, the Empire State League reduced to six teams, beginning the season on May 26, 1906 and becoming a Class D level minor league.[4][5] With a record of 48–26, Seneca Falls again won the championship.[6][7]
In its final season of play, the 1907 Empire State League continued play as a six–team Class D level league and crowned a new champion.[8][4] The Oswego Starchmakers finished 1.0 game ahead of second place Seneca Falls to win the league championship.[9][7]
M.T. Roche served as president of the Empire State League for all three seasons of play.[10][7]
