  • WEST END PARK by Mike Vance and Presented to the Harris County Historical Commission
    1 An Application for an Official Harris County Historical Marker for WEST END PARK by Mike Vance and presented to the Harris County Historical Commission CONTEXT Houston in 1905 was a growing city that could be considered mostly Southern in nature. It was the completely un-air-conditioned home to fewer than 75,000 people.1 The bustling port operations were primarily located around the foot of Main Street, and city fathers billed their metropolis as “Where Seventeen Railroads Meet the Sea”. The city limits ended in a roughly four-mile square that centered around the site of the Courthouse at Congress and Fannin.2 7 - West End Park 3 – Ballpark at Travis & McGowen Map - 1904 Whitty 1 Morrison and Fourney Directory of Houston 1905; “Seventy Five thousand.” Houston Post 12 March 1905 2 Morrison and Fourney Directory of Houston 1904; P Whitty Map and Street Guide to Houston, 1904 Mike Vance West End Park for HCHC 22 March 2014 2 There is no doubt that baseball was the National Game in the first decade of the twentieth century.3 Football existed in college, and was quite popular, but an all-professional football league was still fifteen years away. Only championship boxing matches garnered the press coverage afforded baseball, and those were hardly everyday occurrences. All sports of the day did share one thing in common: they were vehicles for heavy gambling, and Houston was a hotbed of such activity.4 Much as they would continue to do into the current century, baseball stadiums were also occasional homes to other forms of entertainment.

  • Forgotten Heroes
    Forgotten Heroes: Bob “The Rope” Boyd by Center for Negro League Baseball Research Dr. Layton Revel Copyright 2020 Bob Boyd – Major Leaguer Chicago White Sox (1953) Chicago White Sox (1954) Baltimore Orioles (1957) Baltimore Orioles (1959) Robert Richard “Bob” Boyd was born on October 1, 1919 in Potts Camp, Marshall County, Mississippi to Willie and Bertha Boyd. Bob grew up in and attended high school in New Albany, Mississippi. Bob’s father Willie and Willie’s brother were reportedly very good baseball players themselves and Bob remembers watching his father and uncle play ball when he was younger. While he was still in high school, Bob’s mother passed away and he moved to Memphis, Tennessee to live with his father. Bob Boyd stood five feet ten inches tall and weighed approximately 170 pounds during his playing career. He batted from the left hand side of the plate and threw left handed. He was a pure contact hitter who was difficult to strike out. Bob’s hard line-drive hitting that to some resembled the trajectory of a rifle bullet earned him the nickname “The Rope” or “El Ropo” when he played in Latin America. This moniker was given to him by Luman Harris when Luman was the pitching coach for the Chicago White Sox. Even though he didn’t hit for a lot of power, Bob consistently hit for average. Throughout his career Bob Boyd always delivered for a batting average that was well above the .300 mark. During his Negro Bob Boyd League career which lasted from 1946 to 1950, he compiled an Chicago White Sox exemplary .363 career batting average in “league” games.
