Thomasville Hi-Toms (1965-1966)
December 24, 2020
The 1965-1966 Hi-Toms of the Western Carolinas League were one of a series of professional baseball clubs to make their home at Finch Field in the small North Carolina furniture-making city of Thomasville (pop. 15,190 in the 1960 census) between 1937 and 1969. Thomasville’s teams played under various names (Chair Makers, Tommies, Dodgers, Royals) over the years, but “Hi-Toms” was the most popular local moniker, used by three separate clubs between 1948 and 1968.
