Nickey Mann was a minor league umpire in the 1950s.  The following collection of season passes, pictures, articles, and documents give us a peak at his baseball career.

These two articles from Mann's days in the Georgia State League, tell a fascinating tale of one of the first black ballplayers in the Georgia minor league baseball: 12 year-old Joe Louis Relford, the Fitzgerald Pioneers' batboy!
