Abstract

After the National League (NL) Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants moved to California following their 1957 Major League Baseball (MLB) season, New York City (NYC) Mayor Robert Wagner appointed a four-person committee to explore the possibility of returning professional baseball to the area. Two years later, local attorney William Shea announced the formation of a third major professional baseball group named Continental League (CL) to begin play in 1961 with one of its charter teams located in NYC.
