Heroes and Rallies Baseball
Heroes and Rallies Baseball Setup Pick two teams to go head to head, and fill out your lineups on the scoresheet. Each team receives 8 skill assignments to give to individual players. All of the skill assignments listed below must be used within your starting lineup for a total of 8. A player may possess two assignments if you wish. Rate your lineup by placing the appropriate notation beside a player’s name on the scoresheet. 1) star hitter (H) 2) star slugger (S) 3) star runner (R) 4) star fielder (F) 5) poor hitter (H-) 6) weak hitter (S-) 7) slow runner (R-) 8) poor fielder (F-) Once a player has a skill assignment, he cannot transfer it to another player. There is one additional skill assignment available for an ace pitcher (X). You may, however, choose not to start one. Make any pitcher a poor hitter as well (H-), so there will be two poor hitters if a pitcher is in the lineup. Game Play Roll the dice for each player who comes up to bat, reading the colored die first and the white die second. If a result occurs on the Batting chart which displays an image of a ballplayer, the inning is considered finished with no further scoring. Draw an X in the box on the scoresheet representing the current hitter’s at-bat. When his team next comes up to bat, the next player in the lineup will hit. If the color of a chart result corresponds to the color of the skill assignment of the player who is currently up to bat, the result changes to the one shown on the bottom of the Batting chart.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

The Interior Stadium Sports Are Too Much with Us
ROGER ANGELL The Interior Stadium sports are too much with us. Late and soon, sitting and watching-mostly watching on television-we lay waste our powers of identification and enthusiasm and, in time, attention as more and more closing rallies and crucial utts and late field goals and final playoffs and sudden deaths and world recrds and world championships unreel themselves ceaselessly before our half, dded eyes. Professional leagues expand like bubble gum, ever larger and thinner, and the extended sporting seasons, now bunching and overlapping t the ends, conclude in exhaustion and the wrong weather. So, too, goes the secondary business of sports-the news or non-news off the field. Sports an, ouncers (ex-halfbacks in Mod hairdos) bring us another live, exclusive inxview in depth with the twitchy coach of some as yet undefeated basketball :am, or with a weeping (for joy) fourteen-year-old champion female backroker, and the sports pages, now almost the largest single part of the newsTer, brim with salary disputes, medical bulletins, franchise maneuverings, l-star ballots, drug scandals, close-up biogs, after-dinner tributes, union tactics, weekend wrapups, wire-service polls, draft-choice trades, clubhouse gossip, and the latest odds. The American obsession with sports is not a new phenomenon, of course, except in its current dimensions, its excessive excessiveness. What is new, and what must at times unsettle even the most devout and unselective fan, is a curious sense of loss. In the midst of all these successive spectacles and instant replays and endless reportings and recapitulations, we seem to have forgotten what we came for.

A Geographic Analysis of Professional Baseball's First-Year Player Signings, 1965-1977
A GEOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL'S FIRST-YEAR PLAYER SIGNINGS, 1965-1977 By MARK WILSON ,,RUPERT Bachelor of Arts Ohio State University Columbus, Ohio 1974 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE May, 1980 \~~'S~S \C\ io ~C\1451 Q.ic~· 1- A GEOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL 1 S FIRST-YEAR PLAYER SIGNINGS, 1965- 1977 Thesis Approved: Thesis Advi & Dean of the Graduate College 1057~29 ii PREFACE This project was initiated in December, 1977 when Dr. John F. Rooney handed me a carton of papers dealing with contemporary profes sional baseball player signings. My original plan was to analyze only a portion of the data for a paper to be presented the following April at the annual meeting of the Association of American Geographers. I became so engrossed with the subject that I soon decided to thoroughly examine the entire data set for a masters thesis. A two-month tour of many of the major league ballparks during the summer of 1978 further aroused my curiosity for the subject. The intertwining of baseball and geography has since become a personal labor of love. It is hoped that others might find this thesis interesting and informative. I must thank Dr. Rooney for making the data available and for his invaluable expertise as my major adviser. Thanks are also extended to Dr. Stephen W. Tweedie and Dr. George 0. Carney for their interest and timely advice. I am indebted to Gayle Maxwell and her cartography staff for their professional work on the maps included in this thesis.
