Central Baseball League
The Central Baseball League, formerly the Texas-Louisiana League, is a minor league whose member teams are independent of any Major League Baseball affiliations. The current commissioner of the league is Miles Wolff .
In 1991, potential owners became frustrated that the Texas League had no plans to expand into other Texas locations, and formed The Texas-Louisiana League. The league began play in 1994. After further expansion into Missouri and Mississippi, the Texas-Louisiana League changed its name to the Central Baseball League. In eight seasons, the league has produced seven different champions. Only Alexandria has won the title twice (1997 and 1998).
