Salisbury Indians

From BR Bullpen

On June 19, 1937, the Salisbury Indians had a 21-5 record, but the league reversed its wins due to an excess number of "experienced players. One of the team's players, Robert Brady, had signed a contract four years earlier, but had never played. The league president, J. Thomas Kibler, ruled that he qualified as an experienced player and the Indians' record was set at 0-26. The team went 59-11 the rest of the way to finish in 1st place, and ended up winning the playoffs.
