Teams in the AAGPBL traveled the Midwest while the League was active between 1943 to 1954.
A permanent exhibit surrounding the Blue Sox and the AAGPBL can be found at The History Museum.
The team and league will be honored at the August 5 game against the Peoria Chiefs. The game begins at 7:05 p.m.
