Histmerge notes

The deleted edits I did are ones that should belong to the history of the Yakima Bears article when I fixed the cut and paste move. Admins, feel free to fix it. Valfontis (talk) 12:43, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Rochester Hop Bitters

There was a 19th century baseball team whose name was at least indirectly related to hops—the Rochester Hop Bitters. Rochester fielded a team under this name as early as 1879 [1] in the National Association and again in 1891 in the Eastern Association. BRMo (talk) 05:18, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
