Midland went 67-68 under TL Manager of the Year Don Long in 1991 and won the second-half title, their first half-season title in 9 years, pretty difficult in a 4-team division.
Forbes finished second in the league in average, 1B Chris Pritchett (.308/~.389/.412) was fourth and Palmeiro was 5th.
Midland had one of its best years in 1995, going just 66-70, but taking the first-half title and making it to the finals before falling.
A new league, the Northern Counties League, was formed in 1960 and all the former North Eastern League clubs moved to the new competition.
After a single year without a MidlandLeague, a re-formed competition entitled the Midland Counties League was formed, although common practice was still to refer to it as the "MidlandLeague" and it is usually treated as a continuation of the former competition in reference sources.
When the league wanted to raise its profile, and attract clubs from a wider area, the decision was made to rename the league as the "MidlandLeague" with effect from the 1994-95 season.
