I found several photos of my father playing for a team managed by Wally Schang in the late '30's early '40's. The uniform has a large "A" on the front and the hat a capital A. I have tried to find out what team this was, with no luck.. Does anyone know?? I have many pictures from that team. My father ended up playing for the Kansas City and Dallas AAA Yankee teams, and I think this may be some minor league yankee team.. Let me know if you know.. Thanks

Schang managed the Augusta Tigers of the South Atlantic League for part of the 1942 season. They werent a Yankees team that year though, that was part of a two year run in the Detroit organization (41-42).
