The beam beat Walter Johnson’s Los Angeles Olives in 1908, which marked the first time that a black team was recognized by their white counterparts as being a respectable opponent. It finished the 1908-09 season with a 9-8record and competed against many outstanding major league players such as Fred Snodgrass, George Stovall and Chick Autry. Several outstanding African-Americans played on this team, including Lem Hawkins, Ad Langford, Wes Pryor and Sol White.
