Alabama Florida League – Books & Videos Index

 
Books & Videos Index
I am a native of Langdale, Ala. in the upper Chattahoochee Valley, so I remember
my parents talking about attending Valley Rebels games in the old Georgia-Alabama
League. I have spent the last 10 years in Eufaula, where I have had the opportunity
to talk to a few former Millers, including the late Blackie Connell. Also,
as a graduate of Troy State University, I have watched the career of Coach
Chase Riddle with interest. In fact, my years on campus (79-81) were his first
as TSU coach. Since moving to Eufaula I have met a gentleman named Jimmy Sparks,
who went 11-16 one season for the old Rome Red Sox in the Georgia-Alabama League.
He is a good friend of mine and still an active athlete, as he is an avid
golfer and senior softball player. He still travels the country playing in an over-70
tournament team that competes on a national level
