  • Swinging for the Fence: a Call for Institutional Reform As Dominican Boys Risk Their Futures for a Chance in Major League Baseball
    SWINGING FOR THE FENCE: A CALL FOR INSTITUTIONAL REFORM AS DOMINICAN BOYS RISK THEIR FUTURES FOR A CHANCE IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL DIANA L. SPAGNUOLO* You drive around and look at local ballfields in this country and you'll find they are empty.... That's what I love about going to Latin American countries, places like the Domini- can Republic. It's like going back in time, the way it was here in the 1940s, '50s, and '60s. You see kids playing eve- rywhere, with taped-up balls, taped-up bats, whatever they've got to do to play. That's why the search for talent is expanding world-wide.' 1. INTRODUCTION Baseball reflects the social, economic, and political develop- ments of its own environment.

  • Mlb's Neocolonial Practices in the Dominican Republic
    MLB’S NEOCOLONIAL PRACTICES IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC ACADEMY SYSTEM by Patrick C. Gentile A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of North Carolina at Charlotte in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Communication Studies Charlotte 2018 Approved by: ______________________________ Dr. Daniel A. Grano ______________________________ Dr. Jason Edward Black ______________________________ Dr. Jonathan L. Crane ii ©2018 Patrick C. Gentile ALL RIGHTS RESERVED iii ABSTRACT PATRICK C. GENTILE. MLB’S neocolonial practices in the Dominican Republic academy system. (Under the direction of DR. DANIEL A. GRANO) Major League Baseball (MLB) has operated in the Dominican Republic for many years in order to find cheap labor that is refined and shipped to the United States, with goals that a few players will develop into great players. Once a player is signed by an MLB team, they are assigned to the team’s academy, where they train, house, and educate players. However, these actions by MLB are neocolonial, where the players are dominated and controlled in all aspects. I will analyze how MLB justifies their practices in the Dominican Republic, where I will specifically analyze how this system is justified rhetorically. Through the education in the academies, surveillance, and the American dream, I argue that these practices are neocolonial and is justified as altruism, where the Dominican players are seemingly benefitting from MLB’s controlling actions. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express my deepest appreciation to Dr. Dan Grano for the countless hours of work helping me on this project. He constantly proposed new ideas, responded to emails, revised drafts, and was always there when I had questions.

The Globalization of Baseball: A Latin American Perspective ANGEL VARGAS* INTRODUCTION The global reach of Major League Baseball (MLB) has never been more evident. MLB has been engaging in high-profile efforts to globalize America's pastime by staging exhibition and regular season games in foreign nations, such as the Dominican Republic, Mexico, Venezuela, Cuba, and Japan. The presence of foreign players, especially those from Latin American countries, is at an all-time high.' MLB even produced a video celebrating Latino major leaguers. Writers have even referred to the present as the "golden age" of Latino influence in MLB.2 In the globalization of baseball, Latin American countries, particularly the Dominican Republic and Venezuela, are at the forefront of MLB teams' attention and activities as they deepen their search for the next generation of Latino superstars.
