Schenectady Electricians

From BR Bullpen


The Schenectady Electricians were one of the original teams in the third incarnation of the New York State League. The team never finished higher than fourth during the first four years. The team was renamed the Schenectady Frog Alleys for the 1903 season before reverting to the Electricians moniker for the 1904 season. However, this team relocated to Scranton, PA on July 17, 1904, where they became known as the Scranton Miners.
