  • Dodgers and Giants Move to the West: Causes and Effects an Honors Thesis (HONRS 499) by Nick Tabacca Dr. Tony Edmonds Ball State
    Dodgers and Giants Move to the West: Causes and Effects An Honors Thesis (HONRS 499) By Nick Tabacca Dr. Tony Edmonds Ball State University Muncie, Indiana May 2004 May 8, 2004 Abstract The history of baseball in the United States during the twentieth century in many ways mirrors the history of our nation in general. When the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants left New York for California in 1957, it had very interesting repercussions for New York. The vacancy left by these two storied baseball franchises only spurred on the reason why they left. Urban decay and an exodus of middle class baseball fans from the city, along with the increasing popularity of television, were the underlying causes of the Giants' and Dodgers' departure. In the end, especially in the case of Brooklyn, which was very attached to its team, these processes of urban decay and exodus were only sped up when professional baseball was no longer a uniting force in a very diverse area. New York's urban demographic could no longer support three baseball teams, and California was an excellent option for the Dodger and Giant owners. It offered large cities that were hungry for major league baseball, so hungry that they would meet the requirements that Giants' and Dodgers' owners Horace Stoneham and Walter O'Malley had asked for in New York. These included condemnation of land for new stadium sites and some city government subsidization for the Giants in actually building the stadium. Overall, this research shows the very real impact that sports has on its city and the impact a city has on its sports.

  • Socal Vs. Nocal? No Contest the Best Rivalry in Sports Heats Up
    SoCal vs. NoCal? No Contest The Best Rivalry in Sports Heats Up By Chris Brown and Casey Shearer It s the latter half of September, which means the fall breezes are blowing and the leaves are changing. The smell of hot-dogs and stale beer is in the air; everybody wants peanuts and Crackerjacks; children run home from school and head to the sandlot. All of which are symptoms of pennant fever. Or at least they should be. But as we look around, nobody seems to care about baseball at all. In what is usually the most exciting time of the year for baseball fans, that special excitement is somehow absent. Even as Mark McGwire and Ken Griffey Jr. chase Babe Ruth and Roger Maris, and Larry Walker chases the triple crown, something is missing: What's missing, kosher hot-dogs? A players? strike? Roy Hobbs? Steve Howe and his crack? The Cubbies? Has baseball become so unpopular so as to lose the interest of all its fans? Is it just that baseball lacks that type of hype, flashy color and big-money that basketball purports or the bone crushing thrills of football? No, what's missing are those heated races that lead to a bad case of pennant fever. With less than two weeks remaining in the season, the playoff picture is all but set in stone. In the American League, Baltimore owns the East, Cleveland looks to have the Central wrapped up, Seattle should win the West barring a major collapse, and the Bronx Bombers have sewn up the wild card.

  • Baseball's Bisexuality
    Adrienne Harris, Ph.D. BaSeBall’S BISexualIty1 Abstract: In this essay I explore the function of sports in general and baseball in particular as a powerful element in the social construction and maintenance of masculinity within American culture. Sport’s function as an element in ideology is explored. I suggest that some of the key elements in baseball as a mass-audience sport make masculinity a complex and ultimately unstable construction through the medium and media production of baseball. I explore baseball’s relation to time and to language as aspects of complex gender assembly. Keywords: ideology, time, masculinity, social construction, narrative, bisexuality. HIS ESSAY IS PART PSYCHOANALYSIS, part social theory, part femi- Tnism, and part autobiography. It is an attempt to look, very locally, at the production and interpenetration of gender in cultural and intrapsy- chic life, specifically, in the experience of watching and following base- ball. To write this paper, I had to remember and think about a lot of my history, but also about the history of how sports function in and comment on social life and culture. At this point, 20 years after I began to work on this project, how I think about “Women, Baseball, and Words,” (my origi- nal title) is the outcome of my history with psychoanalytic feminism, and with gender studies, and gender theory. But this essay is also an outcome of my history as a daughter, as a wife, as a buddy, and most recently as a grandmother, somehow always someone rooted and vitalized in the intense pleasures of baseball. Only recently have I had a psychoanalytic 1 An early version of this paper, “Woman, Baseball and Words,” was published in Psychcri- tique, 1985, and reprinted in the Norton Guide to Literature, 1988.

  • New York City at the Dawn of Neurological Surgery
    HISTORICAL VIGNETTE J Neurosurg 125:1291–1300, 2016 New York City at the dawn of neurological surgery Robert A. Solomon, MD Department of Neurological Surgery, Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, New York, New York Although there are many cities that can claim to have been the incubator of modern neurological surgery, the rise of this surgical subspecialty in New York City in the late 19th and early 20th century mirrors what was occurring around the world. The first confirmed brain tumor operation in the US was performed there in 1887. The author describes the role of several pioneers in the development of neurological surgery. Charles Elsberg was the first dedicated neurological sur- geon in New York City and was instrumental in the development of the Neurological Institute and the careers of several other notable neurosurgeons. http://thejns.org/doi/abs/10.3171/2015.7.JNS15732 KEY WORDS history; New York; brain tumor; Charles Elsberg; Byron Stookey; Tracy Putnam; Wilder Penfield; Leo Davidoff UMAN civilization began about 200,000 years ago, “On the invitation of Dr. Seguin I went to New York to yet the ability to perform neurological surgery has witness the first operation for a tumor of the brain by an evolved in just the last 150 years.

BRAND NEW, Land of the Giants: New York's Polo Grounds, Stew Thornley, More than thirty years aer its demolition, the Polo Grounds - like some other urban neighborhood parks such as Ebbets Field, Yankee Stadium, Fenway Park, and Wrigley Field - still holds a place in the hearts of baseball fans. The Polo Grounds was the home of the New York Giants from John McGraw and Christy Mathewson to Carl Hubbell and Mel Ott to Willie Mays and Leo Durocher. It was also home to the Yankees when Babe Ruth's home run production was soaring (which led to i??the House that Ruth builti??') and home to the Mets in their painful early years. From i??Merkle's Boneri??', which cost the New York Giants a pennant, to Bobby Thomson's homer, which won them one, Stew Thornley retells the legendary events of the park and its legendary personalities.

  • List of New York's Baseball Sites
    LIST OF NEW YORK’S BASEBALL SITES Major League Stadiums and related sites The New York metropolitan area is the scene of some of the most legendary events and home of the greatest figures in baseball history. From the first recorded baseball game at Elysian Fields in 1846, New York has been the “Capitol of Baseball” for 171 years. New York’s baseball history is written in many places – legendary stadiums, distinctive hotels, ordinary homes. Some of these sites are well-marked and internationally- known – others are marked with small plaques, tiny reminders, or even nothing at all. But every one of these sites listed played a major role in the history of baseball, is worth a visit, and deserves to be known and remembered. Enjoy! 1. Yankee Stadium (161st Street and River Avenue, The Bronx) Accessible by the No. 4, D, and B trains from Manhattan. The new Yankee Stadium, opened in April 2009. Costing $2.3 billion, it stands one block north of the original, on the 24-acre former site of Macombs Dam Park, and incorporates reproductions of many features from the original Yankee Stadium across the street, including the frieze, the Indiana limestone exterior, hand-operated scoreboards, the section numbering, and the unusually-shaped outfield dimensions. New features include a museum of Yankee history that displays Thurman Munson’s locker, a Great Hall on 161st Street, and an accessible Monument Park. Home plate was brought from the original Stadium, and Yankee relief pitcher and future Hall of Famer requested that the team reposition the home bullpen and provide it with a door to link it with Monument Park.

  • Mel Ott Was the Greatest Major Leaguer Ever to Emerge from the New Orleans Area
    RREETTRROOSSPPEECCTTIIVVEE Baseball Took Ott From Gretna to Cooperstown by Bill Catalanello Member, Society for American Baseball Research Mel Ott was the greatest major leaguer ever to emerge from the New Orleans area.

Heinemann arranged for the young phenom to tryout for the legendary manager of the New York Giants, John McGraw. McGraw was impressed enough with Ott’s talent to immediately sign the teenager to a New York Giants contract. McGraw vowed to never allow Ott to play in the minor leagues so that no hitting coach would have the opportunity to tinker with his unorthodox but effective swing. Ott was brought along slowly in a big league environment in New York city whose sports scene in the 1920s was dominated by the Yankees and Babe Ruth. Despite a long and successful career with the Giants, Mel Ott always seemed destined to play in the long shadow of the Yankees superstars. Nevertheless, Mel Ott put together a Hall of Fame career in leading the Giants to three World Series (1933, 1936 and 1937) and one World Championship in 1933 when his 10th inning home run off Senators’ reliever Jack Russell in Game Five was the game-winning and Series-winning blow for the Giants. Ott went on to manage the Giants, but never achieved the excellence he enjoyed as a player.
