The Stedler Report is a blog about baseball in the Short Season Class A New York Penn League (NYPL). It is not affiliated with Minor League Baseball, the New York Penn League, or any of its members. It’s a blog just for fun; there are no subscription fees or advertising. The intent is to provide entertaining and interesting information about minor league baseball and specifically the NYPL.
Why the name, The Stedler Report? It is named in honor of Robert C. Stedler, who was the sports editor of the Buffalo Evening News. Through his efforts, the PONY League (later known as the New York-Penn League) was organized with teams located in Pennsylvania, Ontario, and New York. He served as league president from 1939-47.
