For years, Memphis has chased an NFL franchise. In the 1970s, John Bassett brought the WFL to Memphis. Then, in 1983, Logan Young acquired an expansion franchise in David Dixon’s USFL. William Dunavn purchased the team from Logan, as it became one of the most successful clubs in the short-lived USFL. Reggie White, Mike Lewis, Derrick Crawford, and a city crazed by football.

Looking forward to working on this project and getting this out to a publisher in the near future.

A story hidden in the annals of Negro leagues history. Historians have primarily focused on teams outside of the South. The Memphis Red Sox is not constructed as a fundamental historical narrative. Instead, it takes you on a nine-inning journey to experience what it means to be a Memphis Red Sox. The Memphis Red Sox remained one of the most stable franchises in Negro leagues' history. Black ownership of the team and stadium made the franchise almost an anomaly in black baseball. Their story is left behind the Negro Leagues' more prominent franchises: the Kansas City Monarchs, the Chicago American Giants, the Homestead Grays, the Pittsburgh Crawfords, and the Birmingham Black Barons.
