  • William Bell
    Forgotten Heroes: William Bell by Center for Negro League Baseball Research Dr. Layton Revel and Luis Munoz Copyright 2014 Kansas City Monarchs (1924) Negro National League and Negro League World Series Champions ((Lemuel Hawkins, William Bell, Clifford Bell, Carroll “Dink” Mothel, Frank Duncan (Sr.), William “Plunk” Drake, George Sweatt and Homer “Hop” Bartlett) (Jack Marshall, Hurley McNair, Newt Joseph, Harold “Yellowhorse” Morris, Oscar “Heavy” Johnson, Newt Allen, Wilber “Bullet” Rogan, Jose Mendez and Walter “Dobie” Moore) William Bell, Sr. was born on August 31, 1897 in Lavaca County, Texas. He stood 5’ 11” tall and weighed 180 pounds during his playing career. Bell was a right-handed pitcher who was one of the best pitchers in Negro League baseball during the 1920’s. On the mound he was known for his consistency, excellent control and ability to paint the corners. William had command of a wide range of pitches. He had an active fastball that moved in on the hitter, a very good curve ball, a good change-up and slider. During the 1920’s he was a workhorse for the Kansas City Monarchs during their championship seasons. Bell was also known for completing what he started during his career. Our research has revealed that he completed over 75 % of the games he started. In addition William Bell had a reputation for always being able to deliver in the clutch and under pressure. During his career he was occasionally called on to play in the outfield because he was a decent hitter and very good fielder. He had his best two years at the plate in 1929 when he hit .296 and 1932 when he batted .295.

  • Advanced Rules (Pdf)
    Many gamers like to use more advanced game rules beyond what is often found in Official Instructions. These alternative rules are often referred to as “house rules.” Generally speaking, house rules are unofficial modifications to official game rules adopted by individual groups of players. House rules may include the removal or alteration of existing rules, or the addition of new rules. Such modifications are common in board games such as the Hughie Jennings EE-YAH! Baseball Game. Below are a few house rules for our game. We caution that these rules should only be attempted by someone who has an excellent understanding of the basic intricacies of the game. House rules also tend to increase the amount of time it takes to play a game so be mindful of that result. Moreover, if you are playing the game in competition with others, all parties must agree to any house rule modifications of the existing Official Rules. Finally, if you have additional house rules to suggest for inclusion please email us at [email protected] 1. PITCHER FATIGUE Some advanced game players like to factor in fatigue for a starting pitcher. In other words, the more innings a pitcher throws, the less his effectiveness. If you choose to use Pitcher Fatigue it is suggested you increase a Pitcher’s RANK by one in the 6th inning and by two in the 9th innings. For example, a pitcher RANK 7 would become a RANK 8 in the 6th inning and a RANK 10 in the 9th inning (if he is still pitching).
