There were two iterations of the Welch Miners, a minor league baseball team from Welch, West Virginia. The first played in the Mountain State League from 1937–1942, reaching the playoffs every year but never winning a title, though they made the finals in 1941. After World War II, the Miners reformed in 1946 as part of the Appalachian League, eventually winning back-to-back league championships in 1952 and 1953 before financial issues led to their relocation to Marion, Virginia in 1955.

Before affiliated baseball arrived, local coal miners formed a team called the Welch Senators, whose success led to the construction of Blakely Field, later home to both Miners teams. While the Miners never produced a Hall of Fame player, several alumni reached the majors, including 1951 Miner Dave Bristol, who managed four MLB teams and helped shape the early “Big Red Machine” Reds. Former big leaguer Max Butcher also pitched for the Miners in 1946 after a 10-year MLB career. Today, the nearest pro baseball to Welch is in Bluefield, West Virginia, 33 miles away.

cute but not the material I expected
Size: Small, Color: Pure Black
This was really cute, well made and fit as expected. Unfortunately, I have sensitive skin and I found the material to be scratchy so I sent it back.

Nice quality sweater, well made and soft.
Size: Large, Color: Pure Beige
I love this sweater - but I bought it just in time for summer, so it won't get much use until fall! It fits great, it is really soft and the overall quality is quite good. I plan to buy another one in another color as well.

Nice casual looking sweater
Size: Small, Color: Pure Black
I purchased the black/cream inset sweater in a small. I usually wear a small. I fits loose, but NOT baggy. I like the loose fit. The sweater feels so soft. Nice looking sweater. Very happy with the sweater, but could have ordered a medium for a boxier fit.

Good quality & trendy color sweater
Size: Large, Color: Pure Apricot
This sweater is very soft, light and very suitable for keeping mild warm at the temperature of 20c or inside an air conditioning room. Particularly, the trendy color for 2026 in brown suede jacket, this sweater is real good matching item! I like it! 😍😍😍
