Fair use rationale for Image:AmericanAssociation.GIF

[edit]

Image:AmericanAssociation.GIF is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Date confusion

[edit]

This article from the New York Times says an Omaha AA team was starting in 1901, which doesn't jibe with the dates listed in the article. Any advice? I'm adding this info to the Sports in Omaha article. • Freechild'sup? 08:19, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Note the date of the article. It's from late December of 1901. However, it appears they did not field a team in 1902 or anytime soon after. Omaha was in the Western League, though, for a number of years. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 08:26, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"League Champions"

[edit]

The list of League Champions is incorrect - that's a list of AA representatives to the Little World Series, not necessarily the league champions. It needs a cleaning. SixFourThree (talk) 19:30, 2 August 2010 (UTC)SixFourThree[reply]

Incomplete Team List

[edit]

List doesn't include the Nashville Sounds, which were in the AA from 1985 until its demise and are still in the PCL. 75.200.158.141 (talk) 14:36, 19 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You'll notice that the Sounds are included to the right of the Evansville Triplets. The Triplets AAA franchise was moved to Nashville where it continued on as the Nashville Sounds. The Triplets' franchise history was retired, and the Sounds continued the legacy of the previous AA Nashville Sounds. The prior AA Nashville team moved and became the Huntsville Stars.

Seven-inning baseball games

[edit]

In Milwaukee, I was astounded to learn that the Sunday double-headers consisted of a seven-inning game followed by a nine-inning game. I am disappointed to see that this is not noted in the article, as it teaches me that there are other forms of baseball. --Ancheta Wis   (talk | contribs) 19:52, 17 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
