Forgotten Heroes
Forgotten Heroes: Sam Hairston by Center for Negro League Baseball Research Dr. Layton Revel Copyright 2020 “Sam Hairston Night” – Colorado Springs (1955) “Sam Hairston Night” at the Colorado Springs Sky Sox Ball Park Sam Receives a New Car (1955) Hairston Family at Colorado Springs Ball Park “Sam Hairston Night” (front row left to right - Johnny, Sam Jr., Wife and Jerry) (1955) Samuel Harding Hairston was born on January 20, 1920 in the small town of Crawford, Lowndes County which is in the eastern part of the state of Mississippi. He was the second of thirteen children (eight boys and five girls) born to Will and Clara Hairston. Will Hairston moved his family from Crawford to the Birmingham area in 1922. The primary reason for the move was to find better work so that he could support his large family. Will became a coal miner and worked alongside Garnett Bankhead who was the father of the five Bankhead brothers who all played in the Negro Leagues. By 1930 Will had gained employment with American Cast Iron and Pipe (ACIPCO) as a laborer in their pipe shop. According to United States census records the Hairston family also lived in North Birmingham and Sayreton. Sam spent his formative years in Hooper City and attended Hooper City High School. Reportedly Sam did not finish high school and when he was 16 he told the employment office at ACIPCO that he was 18 and was given a job working for the company. According to Sam he went to work to help support the family and give his brothers and sisters the opportunity to go to school. -

August 2019 Volume 62 Issue 8
BOOSTERBOOSTER BITSBITS + The Official Publication of the L.A. Dodgers Booster Club August 2019 www.dodgersboosterclub.com Volume 62 Issue 8 President's Corner . JJ Sells Fellow Boosters - As I write this article, the All-Star game has concluded and the second half of the season is about to start and I thought before it did, I would reflect on what has happened in the first half. First and foremost, this team has played fantastic baseball for the most part. Cody Bellinger, Max Muncy and Alex Verdugo have been better than expected. Ryu has pitched out of his mind. Walker Buehler is proving that last year was no fluke. Turner, Taylor and Maeda have been solid and the bullpen, although the weakest part of the team, has held its own for the most part. Kershaw has re-invented himself as a pitcher and continues to pitch at an all- star level. All of this has been done without Corey Seager and AJ Pollack for most of the first half. But what does it all mean? Nothing. Because what happened in the first half doesn't get you to the finish line. You still have to perform in the second half. To see what happens, join us as we experience it together. As always, I hope to see you at the ballpark! Ticket Talk . Mae Rosenkranz The second half of the season is well on its way and getting ready soon for the homestretch. If you don't have all your tickets yet, look at the TeamUp app or give JJ Sells a call to order some tickets and then send your payment to me. -

Sox's 'The Bandit'
Sox’s ‘The Bandit’ robbed foes of homers at old Comiskey By Mark Liptak Posted Tuesday, February 4th, 2014 Ken Berry’s nickname was “The Bandit” be- cause of his ability to rob opponents of sure home runs by vaulting himself onto or even over the center field fence in old Comiskey Park, and taking away blasts that seemed des- tined for the back of the bullpen. Later in life, Berry would become a noted mi- nor-league manager, working with such promising youngsters as John Elway, Robin Ventura, Alex Fernandez and Frank Thomas. And if a major league career spanning 1962 through 1975 wasn’t enough, along with an All-Star appearance and two Gold Gloves, Berry also worked in the movies, as fate pointed his way towards a technical advisor position in the Black Sox film Eight Men Out. Throw in two of the greatest pennant races in Ken Berry using the body English for which White Sox history and you have quite a story he's best remembered: chasing down a Sox to tell, which he did from his home in Kansas. opponent's long drive. Mark Liptak: By the time you were in col- lege at what is now Wichita State University, the White Sox were very interested in you. Tell us about how you were scouted. And wasn’t Ted Lyons one of the Sox people who watched you? Ken Berry: “Ted had come up from Louisiana to watch me play. It was really the only time that I was aware that someone was interested in me for baseball. -

Retired AL umpire Jim Evans agrees that baseball seems to have more of those opportunities thar any other sport. He also beLieves that umpires will not always find adequate explanations to help rectify problems when an umpire has erred. In the early days of the game, the rulemakers took a wait-and-see approach. \A,/hen something out of the ordinary occurred, the umpire would do whatever he thought was fair and rules would later be changed to address the situation. One example is the rule regarding interference at the plate by a retired runner, which emanated from an umpire's on-the-spot decision in an 1887 American Association game. On an infield grounder that was booted, a runner scored from third and the runner on second tried to score. R3 hung around the plate and seeing his teammate would be out, he shoved the catcher, preventing a tag. In the melee that foilowed, the runner on fust also scored. However, umpire Wesley Curry deciared, "Obshuction," called R2 out and disallowed R1's run baseball had a new rule. - l.:jij . -l:iil ;liiiq+iin q,?3r*7i Surprisingly, the "elastic clause" (NFHS 10-2-3g; NCAA 3-6b; pro 9.01c) Todd Tichenor, Holcomb, Kan., indicates a runner has been awarded second base.
