The Abilene Blue Sox were a minor league baseball team that operated in the West Texas-New Mexico League from 1946-1955 and the Big State League from 1956-1957. They were an affiliate of the Brooklyn Dodgers (46-48) and the Kansas City Athletics (1956-57). The nickname came from the blue trim hose used by their Brooklyn parent team.
