March 9, 1939: In the Beginning

On March 9, 1939, representatives from six cities met in Buffalo, New York to complete the formation of a new minor league to be known as the Pennsylvania-Ontario-New York League (or PONY).

The league's name changed to the New York-Penn League in 1957. 

On December 9, 2020, Major League Baseball eliminated the league.
