Welcome

Welcome to the home page of the Western Greenbrier Charlies. Contrary to popular belief, this team is not named for its manager, Charlie Surbaugh. This team was named the Charlies to honor the Charleston Charlies. Charleston, WV was without professional baseball from 1965 through 1970. Baseball returned to Charleston in 1971 after local businessman Bob Levine purchased a franchise in the Class AAA International League. He named the team the Charlies, in honor of his father, Charlie Levine. The Charlies spent 13 seasons in the International League and were affiliated with the following teams: Pittsburgh Pirates (1971-1976); Houston Astros (1977-1979); Texas Rangers (1980); Cleveland Indians (1981-1983)

The Charlies won the International League Championship in 1973 as an affiliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates, and in 1977 as a Houston Astros affiliate.
