The Park City Miners were a minor league baseball team based in Park City, Utah. In 1901, the Miners played a partial season as members of the Independent level Inter-Mountain League, finishing in fourth place in the only year of minor league play for the Park City franchise.
The "Miners" moniker was in reference to local industry, as Park City and the immediate area was home to silver mining, including the Ontario silver mine.[2][3]
The Park City Miners finished in fourth place in 1901. The Park City franchise disbanded on July 15, 1901, and all remaining games were forfeited. Playing in the newly created four-team league, the Park City Miners had a 3–20 record when the team disbanded. Park City finished behind the Ogden Lobsters (31–10), Salt Lake City White Wings (26–15), Railway Ducks / Lagoon Farmers (23–19) in the standings. The Park City Miners finished with an accredited record of 3–39, playing the season under manager H.S. Townsend, after the forfeits were applied. Parks City finished 28.5 games behind the first place Ogden Lobsters in the final standings, as Ogden finished with a 31–10 record. The Inter-Mountain League folded after the 1901 season and Park City has not hosted another minor league team.[4][5][6][7]
