  • HISTORY NASHVILLE BASEBALL HISTORY the 2019 Season Signifies the 42Nd Season for the Nashville Sounds
    HISTORY NASHVILLE BASEBALL HISTORY The 2019 season signifies the 42nd season for the Nashville Sounds. It’s the 22nd season as a member of the 16- team Pacific Coast League, and the first as the Triple-A affiliate of the Texas Rangers. Despite the 42nd season as the Nashville Sounds, baseball’s roots in Nashville go back to the 19th Century. In fact, baseball has been played in Middle Tennessee since at least 1860, when the Republican Banner newspaper published a July 25th report on the game’s popularity the previous fall. During the Civil War, Union soldiers temporarily based here helped spread the game in the local community. Home field was a place known as the Sulphur Springs Bottom, a half-mile north of today’s state capitol. When the original Southern League was organized in 1885, Nashville was a charter city and games were played at Nashville’s Athletic Park, as the Sulphur Springs Bottom location came to be known. The city fielded several entries in the league over the next ten years -- the Americans (1885-86), the Blues (1887), the Tigers (1893-94), and the Seraphs (1895) -- but was unable to claim a pennant. When the Southern Association was formed in 1901, Athletic Park – which was later given the name Sulphur Dell by famed sportswriter Grantland Rice -- became the permanent home to the Nashville Volun- teers (or Vols, for short), who played there for the next 61 years. Under the guidance of manager Newt Fisher, the Nashville club won the SA’s first two pennants. The team, which was not known as the Vols until a “name the team” contest conducted prior to the 1908 season, continued to build a solid, loyal fan base.

Beginnings 23 3. Adjustments 42 4. Global Reach, Local Reaction 60 5. Extending the Japanese Connection 79 6. The Rivalry 98 7. A Major League Revolution? 118 Acknowledgments 140 Prologue In the autumn of 2006, the Boston Red Sox committed the scarcely imaginable sum of over $100 million to secure the services of a single remarkable athlete. Remarkable, yes, but remarkably untested in the competitive environment of the major leagues. How do we explain this extraordinary commitment to bring Daisuke Matsuzaka to Boston? Although Japanese stars have been recruited to other teams in recent years, this offer dwarfed that of the Yankees to Hideki Matsui or the Mariners to Ichiro Suzuki. The Red Sox team owners, headed by John Henry, a fabulously successful trader in commodity futures, are savvy businessmen. And this was surely in some measure a business decision. But to say that simply begs a further question. Who are the customers so demanding they made the investment in an untested Japanese pitcher seem necessary? What sort of fans are devoted enough to pay the ticket prices, buy the goods, and watch the cable broadcasts that might allow the investment to pay off? Probably they are people a bit crazy like me. Like many children growing up in New England, even in those years when the team was mediocre at best, my relationship to the Red Sox was imprinted in my consciousness as if from a pre-natal link.
