Default 1954 San Antonio Missions

I have programs for 7 of the 12 Orioles affiliates from 1954. The last one to share is from the San Antonio Missions. The Missions played in the Texas League and were a class AA affiliate. Oddly, the Orioles had no AAA affiliate in 1954. The Missions finished 78-83 and did include a few players that had major league experience. The most recognizable would be Ryne Duren, while most of the others had cups of tea in the show.
