Between 1920 and 1925 the Fort Worth Panthers won six consecutive Texas League pennants and five of six Dixie Series titles. Led by manager Jake Atz and featuring pitching aces Joe Pate and Paul Wachtel and slugger Clarence "Big Boy" Kraft, the Panthers dominated minor league baseball in the South during the early 20's. They are considered by some to be one of the two greatest teams in minor league history.
