Bismarck Churchills
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Bismarck Churchills were an integrated semi-professional baseball team based in Bismarck, North Dakota in the 1930s.
The Churchills played independently of any league because their mixed race roster was a problem in a period of segregation. The team was owned by Neil Churchill, a local car dealer.
