- Independence_Producers abstract "The Independence Producers were a minor league baseball team based in Independence, Kansas, USA that played from 1921 to 1925 and from 1928 to 1932. From 1921 to 1924, they played in the Southwestern League, and in 1925 they played in the Western Association. They played in the Western Association from 1928 to 1932 as well. Perhaps their most notable alumnus was Cy Blanton.According to an historical marker, the first night game in organized baseball was played in Independence on April 28, 1930, between the Independence Producers and the Muskogee Chiefs. The Sporting News disputes this claim, citing earlier professional examples going back to am 1896 game in which Honus Wagner played. It is, however, true that in 1930 Negro league teams, including the Independence Producers, were carrying portable light setups with them and playing night games on a regular basis.Baseball historians Larry G. Bowman, Oscar Eddleton, and Bob Rives have explained why Independence is the site of the first night game in the history of Organized Baseball. Organized Baseball is Major League Baseball and the Minor League teams associated with them. There were a few exhibition games during the fifty years prior to the game in Independence, but they were experiments and the scores did not count. Independence not only played the first Organized Baseball game, they also did so under permanent lights, and played 55 night games at home in 1930 alone. The Sporting News, January 24, 1935, Page 5, states that Independence was the first to use permanent lights. Baseball Magazine, April 1931, page 509, states that Independence was the first to play a night league game in America. http://research.sabr.org/journals/under-the-lights".
