  • Triple Plays Analysis
    A Second Look At The Triple Plays By Chuck Rosciam This analysis updates my original paper published on SABR.org and Retrosheet.org and my Triple Plays sub-website at SABR. The origin of the extensive triple play database1 from which this analysis stems is the SABR Triple Play Project co-chaired by myself and Frank Hamilton with the assistance of dozens of SABR researchers2. Using the original triple play database and updating/validating each play, I used event files and box scores from Retrosheet3 to build a current database containing all of the recorded plays in which three outs were made (1876-2019). In this updated data set 719 triple plays (TP) were identified. [See complete list/table elsewhere on Retrosheet.org under FEATURES and then under NOTEWORTHY EVENTS]. The 719 triple plays covered one-hundred-forty-four seasons. 1890 was the Year of the Triple Play that saw nineteen of them turned. There were none in 1961 and in 1974. On average the number of TP’s is 4.9 per year. The number of TP’s each year were: Total Triple Plays Each Year (all Leagues) Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's <1876 1900 1 1925 7 1950 5 1975 1 2000 5 1876 3 1901 8 1926 9 1951 4 1976 3 2001 2 1877 3 1902 6 1927 9 1952 3 1977 6 2002 6 1878 2 1903 7 1928 2 1953 5 1978 6 2003 2 1879 2 1904 1 1929 11 1954 5 1979 11 2004 3 1880 4 1905 8 1930 7 1955 7 1980 5 2005 1 1881 3 1906 4 1931 8 1956 2 1981 5 2006 5 1882 10 1907 3 1932 3 1957 4 1982 4 2007 4 1883 2 1908 7 1933 2 1958 4 1983 5 2008 2 1884 10 1909 4 1934 5 1959 2

  • Mobile Baseball, 1868-1910
    Transcribed Pages from the Charles Dickson Papers on Mobile Baseball Box 3 Folder 1: Mobile Baseball 1868-1910 1. Early Base Ball in Mobile The first record of baseball games being played in Mobile was an account in the Mobile Daily News, Feb. 1st 1868 – The game was for the championship of the state between the: -- Dra [illegible] and the Mobile ball club resulting in a score of 63 to 50 in favor of the Dra[illegible]. It took 2 hours and fourty minutes time to play the game, which was said to be very exciting to five hundred who witnessed the game, not withstanding the very cold weather on that February afternoon. There is no mention of the number of innings that were played,(if any) before the contest was ended. From the report of the game, it is evident that each player of the nine on each team were individually credited by the scores that they made and charged with the number of times that they were Tagged out. R. Ellison was the umpire and R. Goubil and W. Madderu were score keepers. -- Champion Base Ball Match – Dra[illegible] Mobile Player Position Outs Runs Player Position Outs Runs Allen P 2 9 Lardner 3B 4 6 Callett C 3 8 Walker 1B 2 8 Hurley Jr. SS 5 6 Sheridan 2B 3 7 Fitzpatrick 1B 5 6 Cannon P 3 6 Lowduer 2B 1 10 Peterson CF 5 4 Parsons 3B 3 8 Christ C 2 5 Hurley Sr. 4F 4 6 McAvory 4F 3 4 Madderu CF 1 8 Dalton[?] SS 2 6 Bahanna RF 3 2 Magles RF 3 4 Totals 27 63 27 50 2.
