Memphis Chicks (1978-1997)
March 26, 2015
The re-hatched Memphis Chicks (1978-1997) were a popular Class AA minor league baseball entry in southwestern Tennessee for two decades. The city’s previous ball club, Memphis Blues, left town amidst financial problems in late 1976, leaving Memphis as the largest American city without pro baseball in 1977. Memphis serial sports investor Avron Fogelman remedied that the following year with his acquisition of a franchise in the Class AA Southern League.
