Pennsylvania State Association


The Pennsylvania State Association was a class D league of minor league baseball that existed from 1934 until 1942. The league was entirely based in the western part of the state. The league was composed mostly of minor league farm teams. During the nine-year run of the league there were eleven cities, all from Pennsylvania, that represented the league. Elmer M. Daily was President of the league the full nine years of its existence. The Butler Yankees walked off with four of the league's nine championships, winning back-to-back titles in 1937 and 1938 and winning the final three titles for the league in 1940, 1941 and 1942. There were at least sixteen known players from the league who managed to make it to the majors. Also, in the league, there were some twenty-one team managers who had been affiliated with a major league team, during their baseball careers.
There was no effort made to restart the PSA after World War II and it has been dormant since that time.
