Three players from the Topeka Mosby-Macks are shown in this snapshot from 1945, pictured left to right: Paul Fink, Don Bliss, and Bud Fawl. The Mosby-Macks were an American Legion team representing Topeka's Capitol Post 1. The Macks won the state Legion title in 1945 by defeating a team from Wichita. It was the third straight state championship for the Capitol Post 1 team; its streak would eventually extend to six consecutive state titles. Digital reproduction of the photograph was accomplished through a joint project sponsored by the Kansas Historical Society and the Shawnee County Baseball Hall of Fame.
