Other Information: New Ulm Ramblers played baseball circa 1932 to 1938 in New Ulm, usually on the south side of the city. Others were in the area of 20th South Street. See note below about possible location. L-R, front: Marvin Brust, Hank Scheid, Ernie Eyrich, Ray Bieraugel, Bill Ring. Back: Willard Wieland, Babe Hesse, Clem Brust, Ole Nunn, Jack Aufderheide. Photo courtesy Jim Aufderheide. Wieland and Jack Aufderheide later played with the Brewers in the late 1930's and early 1940's. Ader Wieland recalls there was a a baseball diamond located just north of the present National Guard maintenance section in the 20th South St. area of Washington, etc. A note elsewhere indicates that this picture was taken as the team won a championship in Mankato so it may not relate to a diamond in New Ulm. The Wieland family lived in that area.
