Welcome to the Deep South Class D Baseball Web Site.
Since February, 1999, This site has honored the forgotten heroes of Class D professional baseball in the Deep South, specifically the Wiregrass Region of Southeastern Alabama, Southwestern Georgia, and the Florida Panhandle. Class D baseball met it's demise in November, 1962, when Minor League Baseball reorganized into the Class structure we know today, but there is a rich history associated with the lowest level of the minors that hopefully will live on in the pages of this web site. Please, come in and look around.
Please send any news clippings, copies of photographs, personal memories, scrapbook entries, box scores, in short, anything related to the Alabama-Florida League or minor league and/or semi pro baseball in Alabama, Georgia, or the Florida Panhandle. This site's mission is to preserve the history of minor league baseball in the deep south. I am interested in any information, no matter how minor.
Help keep the memory alive!
THANKS !

1918 - 2007
Edd Hartness,
a fixture at all the Moultrie reunions, was killed in a farming accident in April, of 2007. Edd, despite being well into his eighties, was still very active at the time of his passing. He was elected to the inaugural 2005 class of the Deep South Class D Hall Of Fame, and he provided a wide selection of historic memorabilia for each year's Moultrie Reunion. On behalf of Clint Chafin, John Bell, and myself, we send the Hartness family our deepest sympathies. Read about Edd in the Profiles Section.
