  • Learn More About Garry Maddox
    Learn more about Garry Maddox Compete 360 Compete 360’s goal is to foster a design thinking practice in city schools by training teachers, facilitating student-led, projects and hosting DT Philly – an event where students present their work to a panel of judges, where three teams can earn grants to support project implementation. In order to complete in a DT Philly project, students will select a need they identify in their school, community or the world around them. They move through the five phases of design thinking: empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test, to develop a creative, viable and desirable solution to the design problem. Design thinking actively connects what students do in school to what goes on in the world around them. Youth Golf & Academics Program The Youth Golf & Academics Program (YGAP), a non-profit organization founded by former Phillies centerfielder Garry Maddox, was established to provide academic support and enrichment services to children in grades K through 5 who reside in troubled city neighborhoods. Over the course of six years, YGAP served over 500 children, all of whom were members of a racial or ethnic minority group and lived in low- income, high-crime neighborhoods. Founded in the year 2000, YGAP collaboratively worked with parents and schools to support children’s education, and provide other resources to children and families (school uniform vouchers, Thanksgiving food baskets, and Christmas presents) as circumstances permit. Garry Maddox – Drew Katz Celebrity Bowling Classic 2013 marked the 27th, annual Garry Maddox – Drew Katz Celebrity Bowling Classic. This event began in the 1970’s when Garry responded to a request to visit a child at a local hospital shortly after he was traded from the San Francisco Giants, to the Philadelphia Phillies.

  • 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.

By Rich Westcott For The Inquirer The euphoria from the Phillies' 2008 World Series victory has yet to subside, but as spring training begins, the speculation already has started. Can the Phillies do it again? Can the team that was one of the best in Philadelphia baseball history and one that captured the hearts of the region win a second consecutive World Series championship? Will there be another parade down Broad Street? While posing that question, which the Phillies and most of their fans hope will be answered in the affirmative, let's look at what the team did in the years after its previous trips to the World Series. The Phils appeared in the Fall Classic in 1915, 1950, 1980, ERIC MENCHER / Staff Photographer 1983 and 1993. Phillies catcher Darren Daulton (right) and reliever Mitch Williams during the 1993 World Despite high expectations, there were no repeats.

Summary: The purpose of this paper is to highlight the importance of the Spanish language and the remarkable contribution to Major League Baseball by Spanish- American players. Keywords: baseball, sports, Major League Baseball, Spanish, Latinos Introduction The purpose of this paper is to highlight the remarkable contribution made to Major League Baseball (MLB) by players from Spanish America both in terms of © Clara González Tosat Hispanic Digital Newspapers in the United States Informes del Observatorio / Observatorio Reports. 016-12/2015EN ISSN: 2373-874X (online) doi: 10.15427/OR016-12/2015EN Instituto Cervantes at FAS - Harvard University © Instituto Cervantes at the Faculty of Arts and Sciences of Harvard University quantity and quality.1 The central idea is that the significant and valuable Spanish-American presence in the sports arena has a very positive impact on the collective psyche of the immigrant community to which these athletes belong. Moreover, this impact extends beyond the limited context of sport since, in addition to the obvious economic benefits for many families, it enhances the image of the Spanish-speaking community in the United States. At the level of language, contact allows English to influence Spanish, especially in the area of vocabulary, which Spanish assimilates and adapts according to its own peculiar structures. Baseball, which was invented in the United States during the first half of the nineteenth century, was introduced into Spanish America about thirty or forty years later.
