There's some funny history associated with that term.
The Boston Braves moved to Milwaukee 1953 & they became the Milwaukee Braves.
By '57, they were playing in the World Series against the mighty New York Yankees. So rabid were Milwaukee fans, they even greeted the Yankees once the New Yorkers hit town. "Bush league" is how the city boys responded to the excitable Milwaukee fans. The series went seven games but Milwaukee prevailed and the headlines next day would read "Bushville Wins!".

Happy Red Sox fan:)
