Federal League


Wikipedia - "The Federal League of Base Ball Clubs, known simply as the Federal League, was an American professional baseball league that operated as a 'third major league', in competition with the established National and American Leagues, from 1914 to 1915. It was the last serious attempt to create an independent major league outside the established structure of professional baseball, and the last competing third league of any kind to actually make it to the playing field."
