The Pekin Celestials were an Illinois-Missouri League baseball team based in Pekin, Illinois, USA that played from 1909 to 1913.[1]
In their very first season, the Celestials had four different managers. Two future major league baseball players played for them that year as well: Cecil Coombs and Mike Prendergast.[2] Coombs played for them in 1910 as well.[3] In 1911 and 1912, future big leaguers Jim Bluejacket and Patsy McGaffigan played for the Celestials.[4][5] 1913 is the only year in which no known future big league players played for the Celestials.[6]
