Lexington Colts Explained

The Lexington Colts were a baseball team competing in the Blue Grass League, 1908–1912, the Ohio State League, 1913–1916, and the Mountain States League, 1954. The 1908 Lexington team was also called the "Thoroughbreds,"[1] [2] Neither the team nor the league lasted through the 1954 season, but the manager was former major leaguer Zeke Bonura and a star was future major leaguer Lou Johnson.[3]
