The Memphis Red Sox original started at the minor league level, but began playing major league level teams early on and found success. Being one of the few to own their stadium, extra profits allowed the team to recruit top level players and they began playing full time at the major league level in the Negro National League in 1924. The Red Sox were successful throughout the 1930's winning a championship, but when WWII started, the team lost multiple players to military service and was never competitive again.
