Los Yankees De Nueva York Dieron Una Gran Muestra Ofensiva 1927 Los Yankees de Nueva York dieron una gran muestra ofensiva durante toda la temporada de 1927, y con su excelente pitcheo, dominaron la tabla de posiciones durante toda la campaña finalizando con una marca de 110-44 en ganados y perdidos, conformando así un equipo de los mejores en la historia del beisbol de las Grandes Ligas. Los Atléticos de Philadelphia, comandados por Ty Cobb, quedaron en segundo sitio de la Liga Americana a ¡19 juegos! del primer lugar. De nueva cuenta, el gran Babe Ruth exhibe su gran poder con el madero al llegar a la mágica cifra de 60 cuadrangulares, algo insólito en este deporte; su promedio con gente en base llegó a ser de 0.487. Su compañero Lou Gehrig no lo hizo tan mal, puesto que concluyó la campaña con 47 palos de vuelta entera. Es digno mencionar que entre Ruth y Gehrig conectaron casi la cuarta parte de los 439 cuadrangulares que se contabilizaron en la liga. Gehrig produjo 175 carreras siendo el líder en el circuito, aunque Ruth anotó más veces al pisar el plato en 164 ocasiones, 9 más que su compañero. El premio al jugador más valioso fue otorgado a Gehrig por encima de Harry Heilmann de Detroit, quien bateó para 0.398. Destacaron en la ofensiva neoyorquina Earle Combs con 137 carreras anotadas, primero en hits con 231 y en triples con 23 con 0.356 de promedio; Bob Meusel conectó para 0.337 con 47 dobletes y Mark Koening que fue segundo en carreras con 99 anotaciones. Tony Lazzeri fue tercero en jonrones con 18 acumulando un porcentaje de 0.309. El equipo bateó para 0.307. El pitcheo de los Yankees dejó también excelentes comentarios. El cuerpo de lanzadores compiló un promedio de 3.2 en CLP teniendo al máximo ganador Waite Hoyt con 22 victorias. Wilcy Moore, Hoyt y Shocker fueron primero, segundo y cuarto en CLP con 2.28, 2.64 y 2.84. Nueva York también fue primero en blanqueadas, menos hits y la menor cantidad de bases por bolas. En una palabra... los mejores de la campaña. En la Liga Nacional, Pittsburgh ganó el título de la Liga al vencer a los Cardenales y Gigantes; los tres equipos terminaron con una diferencia de 2 juegos de ventaja entre sí. Por Pittsburgh, los hermanos Waner trabajaron en gran forma para ser los puntales en la ofensiva de los bucaneros. Paul ganó el título de bateo con 0.380 produciendo 131 carreras, 237 hits y 17 triples, los números más altos de la 1 liga. Su hermano Lloyd fue líder en carreras con 133 y quedó tercero en bateo al acumular 0.355 de promedio. La serie mundial se resolvió en cuatro días con cuatro triunfos para Yankees, donde destacó el bateo de Koening y Ruth, conectando este último los únicos 2 jonrones en las cuatro confrontaciones. NOTAS CORTAS El novato Wilcy Moore es el pitcher más valioso de la serie mundial al ganar el partido final y salvar un juego. Kiki Cuyler de los piratas es castigado en la banca al discutir con el manager Donie Bush y se pierde la serie mundial. Ruth conecta más jonrones que cualquier otro equipo de la liga Americana, exceptuando a los Yankees. Charlie Root de los cachorros obtiene la mayor cantidad de victorias con 26 en la Liga Nacional. Moore gana 19 juegos para los Yankees y empata el liderato de juegos salvados en la liga con 13. Moore gana 13 juegos en relevo, un nuevo récord. Por cuarto año consecutivo Harry Heilmann obtiene el título de bateo con 0.398. Los Yankees anotan 975 carreras, un récord en la liga. Los Yankees se convierten en el primer equipo en la historia en conectar 100 triples y 100 jonrones en una temporada. Lloyd Waner impone récord de hits para un novato con 223. Ty Cobb firma con los Atléticos de Philadelphia después de 22 años con los Tigres de Detroit. Cobb conecta el hit 4000 el 19 de julio sobre el pitcher de Detroit Sam Gibson. Walter Johnson se retira con el récord de 3506 ponchados de por vida, además, las 110 blanqueadas constituyen el mayor número observado en la historia de las Grandes Ligas. El 17 de mayo, el pitcher de los Bravos de Boston Bob Smith lanza 22 entradas en un juego completo perdiendo 4-3 ante los Cachorrros; Bob Osborn lanza 14 entradas sin carrera para llevarse la victoria. Los Yankees vencen a los Cafés de San Luis 21 veces en la temporada. El 3 de mayo se enfrentan por primera vez en las Grandes Ligas dos lanzadores hermanos: Jesse y Virgil Barnes. El 30 de mayo Jimmy Cooney ejecuta un triple play sin asistencia por los cachorros de Chicago, y al día siguiente hace lo mismo Johnny Neun, primera base de los Tigres de Detroit. Ted Lyons de Chicago y Waite Hoyt de Nueva York empatan en victorias con 22 en la Liga Americana. Detroit cambia a Heinie Manush y Lu Blue a los Cafés por tres jugadores. Con el score 2-2 en la novena entrada, Tom Zachary permite el jonrón No.60 a Babe Ruth con Koening en base para una victoria 4-2 de Nueva York sobre Washington. En este partido, Walter Johnson hace su última aparición en el 2 diamante entrando al relevo de Zachary y domina a Ruth en el noveno con un elevado; Ruth conectó 17 jonrones en el mes de septiembre. La serie mundial ganada por limpia por parte de los Yankees es la primera que se produjo por parte de algún equipo de la Liga Americana. En el cuarto juego de la serie mundial, con el partido empatado a 3 carreras en la novena entrada, el relevista John Miljus permite las bases llenas con base por bolas a Combs, toque sorpresa de Koening y después de un wild pitch se otorga base intencional a Ruth. Miljus poncha a Gehring y a Meusel, y bateando Lazzeri se produce el segundo wild pitch de Miljus entrando Combs con la carrera de la victoria y del campeonato en la serie mundial. Los Yankees derrotan 8-3 a los Atléticos en el juego inaugural ante 65,000 espectadores, un récord de asistencia. Koening bateó de 5-5. El 26 de abril, Ty Cobb anota la carrera del gane en la victoria de los Atléticos 9-8 sobre los Medias Rojas; en la séptima se roba el jom y también ejecuta en la novena entrada un doble play sin asistencia para terminar el juego...a los 40 años de edad. Eddie Collins regresa a los Atléticos después de 12 años con los Medias Blancas. El 19 de junio Jack Scott de los Filis es el último pitcher en lanzar dos juegos completos en el mismo día. Gana 3-1 y pierde 3-0 contra Cachorros. John McGraw cumple 25 años como manager de los Gigantes de Nueva York.

    ESTIMATED AGE EFFECTS IN BASEBALL By Ray C. Fair October 2005 Revised March 2007 COWLES FOUNDATION DISCUSSION PAPER NO. 1536 COWLES FOUNDATION FOR RESEARCH IN ECONOMICS YALE UNIVERSITY Box 208281 New Haven, Connecticut 06520-8281 http://cowles.econ.yale.edu/ Estimated Age Effects in Baseball Ray C. Fair¤ Revised March 2007 Abstract Age effects in baseball are estimated in this paper using a nonlinear xed- effects regression. The sample consists of all players who have played 10 or more full-time years in the major leagues between 1921 and 2004. Quadratic improvement is assumed up to a peak-performance age, which is estimated, and then quadratic decline after that, where the two quadratics need not be the same. Each player has his own constant term. The results show that aging effects are larger for pitchers than for batters and larger for baseball than for track and eld, running, and swimming events and for chess. There is some evidence that decline rates in baseball have decreased slightly in the more recent period, but they are still generally larger than those for the other events. There are 18 batters out of the sample of 441 whose performances in the second half of their careers noticeably exceed what the model predicts they should have been. All but 3 of these players played from 1990 on. The estimates from the xed-effects regressions can also be used to rank players. This ranking differs from the ranking using lifetime averages because it adjusts for the different ages at which players played. It is in effect an age-adjusted ranking.

Fans eager- ly await the Nationals’ first home game of the 2019 fall classic Friday night as the team attempts to em- ulate the 1924 Washington Senators, winners over the New York Giants in seven thrilling games. Many fans know that aging Walter Johnson, one of the greatest pitchers in major league base- ball history, won game seven in relief after losing his two starts earlier in the ‘24 series. Others are familiar with Leon Allen “Goose” Goslin, the Sen- ators’ young slugging left fielder; 34-year-old Sam Rice, their stellar right fielder; and Bucky Harris, the young player-manager second baseman – all of whom were destined for the Baseball Hall of Fame.

  • 1962 Minnesota Twins Media Guide
    MINNESOTA TWINS METROPOLITAN STADIUM - BLOOMINGTON, MINNESOTA /eepreieniin the AMERICAN LEAGUE __flfl I/ic Upper l?ic/we1 The Name... The name of this baseball club is Minnesota Twins. It is unique, as the only major league baseball team named after a state instead of a city. The reason unlike all other teams, this one represents more than one city. It, in fact, represents a state and a region, Minnesota and the Upper Midwest, in the American League. A survey last year drama- tized the vastness of the Minnesota Twins market with the revelation that up to 47 per cent of the fans at weekend games came from beyond the metropolitan area surrounding the stadium. The nickname, Twins, is in honor of the two largest cities in the Upper Midwest, the Twin Cities of Minne- apolis and St. Paul. The Place... The home stadium of the Twins is Metropolitan Stadium, located in Bloomington, the fourth largest city in the state of Minnesota. Bloomington's popu- lation is in excess of 50,000. Bloomington is in Hen- nepin County and the stadium is approximately 10 miles from the hearts of Minneapolis (Hennepin County) and St. Paul (Ramsey County). Bloomington has no common boundary with either of the Twin Cities. Club Records Because of the transfer of the old Washington Senators to Minnesota in October, 1960, and the creation of a completely new franchise in the Na- tion's Capital, there has been some confusion over the listing of All-Time Club records. In this booklet, All-Time Club records include those of the Wash- ington American League Baseball Club from 1901 through 1960, and those of the 1961 Minnesota Twins, a continuation of the Washington American League Baseball Club.

For their new fans to gloat about, the renamed Minnesota Twins brought with them three pennants won in Washington, in 1924, '25 and '33, and a world championship in 1924. Now, their new boosters could claim a share of such Senator greats as Clark C. (Old Fox) Griffith, Wolter (Big Train) Johnson, Joe Cronin, Lean (Goose) Goslin, Clyde (Deerfoot) Milan, Ed Delahanty, James (Mickey) Vernon, Roy Sievers, and others. Reciprocally, the Twins could now absorb the glories of 18 American Asso- ciation pennants - nine won by St. Paul and nine by Minneapolis - in 59 seasons. They could be reminded of the tremendous pennant burst by St. Paul in 1920, with the Saints winning 115, losing only 49, posting a .701 percentage, and running away from Joe McCarthy's second-place Louisville Colonels by 28 1/2 games. Mike Kelley, the American Association's grand old man, managed that one and four other Saints flag winners before buying the Minneapolis club and putting together three more championship combinations. The pattern for winning boll in St. Paul was set early, in the first year of minor league ball, in fact.

  • Babe Ruth: Milestone Home Runs
    General Admission Home Run Milestones for Babe Ruth by S. Derby Gisclair Member, Society for American Baseball Research The home run prowess of George Herman “Babe” Ruth is legendary. So are many of the home runs that he hit – towering shots that cleared the outfield fences in ballparks across the league. And the frequency with which he produced home runs is astounding: one every 11.76 at-bats, or roughly one home rune every 3.5 games. How many times did newspapers across the country feature a headline like this? Many consider Ruth the greatest player of all-time. He is certainly the greatest home run hitter the game has ever seen, the accomplishments of others like Hank Aaron and Willie Mays not withstanding. Debates will rage among fans and historians. Arguments involving SABRmetrics and other analytical methods will attempt to settle the matter in favor of one position or another. The simple truth is that Babe Ruth hit home runs more frequently during his career than any other baseball player, and in so doing he changed the way the game of baseball was played. As the game teetered on the edge of collapse because of the Black Sox scandal after the 1919 World Series, it was the home run heroics of Babe Ruth that kept the fans coming to the ball park. He drew crowds wherever he played. He made the game fun again. The following are brief excerpts about several of the home run milestones in the 22-year career of Babe Ruth. S. Derby Gisclair 1 404 Notre Dame Street – PH1 New Orleans LA 70130 General Admission May 6, 1915 Babe Ruth hits his first major league home run at the Polo Grounds in New York in the third inning, batting ninth in the order for the Boston Red Sox.
