Does anyone have any information or sources for a listing of Minor League/Independent Teams that Bid McPhee and Ned Hanlon played on before making the Major Leagues? I am just interested in the team names and the seasons that they played there not the statistics.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

McPhee played for Davenport in the Northwest league in 1879, and Akron in the Independent League in 1880 and 1881.

Hanlon played for Rhode Island in 1876, Fall River in 1877, Rochester in 1878, and Albany in 1879. He was a busy man.

Just doing some research on Hall of Famers' pre-ML days, no new discoveries, unfortunately.
