History: The PCL’s LA entry was a charter member of the league, and was known variously as the LooLoos, Seraphs, and Angels. The club was bought by chewing gum magnate William Wrigley Jr. in 1921, and soon built the first Wrigley Field, a spectacular double-decked 21,000 seat ballpark at 42nd and Avalon. The 1933 team is regarded as one of the greatest minor league squads of all time, posting a record of 137-50. In an unusual playoff format, LA beat the League All Stars four games to two that year.
