He succeeds Ed Buika as skipper of the club which operated last season as the New London Raiders and finished fourth in the Colonial League pennant chase. A native of Scranton, Kobesky played and managed Salisbury, of the Eastern Shore League in 1940 and the following season moved up to Elmira of the Eastern League. His spectacular play and terrific hitting earned him a shot at the 'higher circuit' and in 1942 he was purchased by Buffalo of the International League. With Buffalo in '42 Big Ed played in 121 games and appeared at the dish 382 times. He batted .290 for the season and his overall record shows that he scored 52 runs, pounded out- 111 hits, Including 18 doubles, 1- triple, 19 home runs, and knocked in 78 runs.

He achieved a similar record the following year and then proceeded to burn up the league In 1944.

His career as an active player was temporarily halted while performing for the Little Giants. Catching a game against Montreal in mid-season, Kobesky broke his hand and was forced to sit out the remainder of the campaign. The unfortunate accident happened in a peculiar manner.
