Garfield Kiel, Seguin and Guadalupe County Sports 1948

In 1948, it appears Garfield Kiel was the "go to " guy in Sports for readers of the Guadalupe Gazette-Bulletin. In the 4/9/1948 edition his column focused on the four teams, possibly five who would "step up to the plate" for baseball that summer. Any thoughts on which four teams he covered? Here's hints.......one still currently takes the field, three don't. In the list of "newcomers" Kiel mentions TLC and the Seguin Negro League, as it was termed in those days. Said Kiel, "few towns in Texas the size of Seguin can boast of a similar record."
