Thank you. A Summer Wildfire: How the greatest debut in baseball history peaked and dwindled over the course of three months by Colin Thomas Reynolds, M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2011 SUPERVISORS: Tracy Dahlby & Bill Minutaglio The narrative itself is an ageless one, a fundamental Shakespearean tragedy in its progression. A young man is deemed invaluable and exalted by the public. The hero is cast into the spotlight and bestowed with insurmountable expectations. But the acclamations and pressures are burdensome and the invented savior fails to fulfill the prospects once imagined by the public. He is cast aside, disregarded as a symbol of failure or one deserving of pity. It’s the quintessential tragedy of a fallen hero. The protagonist of this report is Washington Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg, who enjoyed a phenomenal rookie season before it ended abruptly due to a severe elbow injury.

  • Presidents and Baseball in Dc
    TEAM UP JANUARY TOUCH BASE 2021 PRESIDENTS AND BASEBALL IN DC Across the country, Opening Day marks the beginning of a new Major League Baseball season. In Washington, DC, Opening Day is truly unique because it often makes history. Major League Baseball’s ceremonial first pitch goes back to April 14, 1910. William Howard Taft, the 27th president of the United States, attended the home opener of the Washington Senators against the Philadelphia Athletics. A sold out crowd of 12,226 fans—the largest baseball crowd in Washington at that time—gave President Taft a standing ovation as he made his way to his seats along the first-base line. Just prior to the start of the game, umpire Billy Evans walked over to President Taft’s box and presented him with a new baseball. Evans instructed President Taft that he was to throw the ball from his seat in the stands to Senators pitcher Walter Johnson to officially start the season. With Taft’s on-target throw, the ceremonial first pitch was born. The president watched the whole game, a 3-0 Washington win in which Johnson threw a one-hit, complete-game shutout. From 1910 through 1972, when the Washington Senators left for Texas, 11 presidents threw a ceremonial first pitch 45 times on Opening Day, or at the team’s home opener if they began the season on the road. In those games the Senators won 23 and lost 22. Prior to the Senators move, every president since Taft was in attendance for a Washington Senators home opener at least once.

  • Innovative Office Solutions Named 2009 Jackie Robinson “Most Valuable Diverse Business Partner” by Minnesota Twins and Major League Baseball
    Innovative Office Solutions Named 2009 Jackie Robinson “Most Valuable Diverse Business Partner” by Minnesota Twins and Major League Baseball Award recognizes excellence among minority- and women-owned business partners BURNSVILLE, MINN. (April 23, 2009) Innovative Office Solutions, official office supply provider to the Minnesota Twins, has been selected for the 2009 Jackie Robinson “Most Valuable Diverse Business Partner” (MVDBP) Award by the Minnesota Twins and Major League Baseball (MLB). The award recognizes proactive leadership, commitment to sound business practices, quality product, efficiency, reliability and accountability as key attributes in its recipients. In 1998, MLB Commissioner, Allan H. (Bud) Selig, authorized the creation of the Diverse Business Partner program, a business initiative established to cultivate new and existing partnerships with minority- and women-owned businesses by increasing opportunities for them to participate in the procurement activities of MLB. “Working with the Minnesota Twins and Major League Baseball is both fun and rewarding, and we‟re honored to be recognized by this award among our peers in the Diverse Business Partner program,” said Jennifer Smith, CEO of Innovative Office Solutions. “Innovative Office Solutions strives for excellence with our „Relationships Matter‟ approach to customer service, and we look forward to continuing to work with the Minnesota Twins.” Smith accepted the award and threw out the ceremonial first pitch at the Metrodome in downtown Minneapolis as MLB celebrated Jackie Robinson Day on April 15, 2009, the 62nd anniversary of his courageous trot onto the field as the first African-American to play in the Major Leagues. Smith established Innovative Office Solutions in 2001, and has grown the organization into a multimillion dollar office supply company.

  • Double Duty Radcliffe Obit
    August 12, 2005------ TED 'DOUBLE DUTY' RADCLIFFE - 1902-2005 With a name like Theodore Roosevelt "Double Duty" Radcliffe, the son of a shipyard carpenter had to be destined for adventure. The Negro League baseball legend died Thursday in his Chicago home of complications from cancer. He was 103. Mr. Radcliffe was thought to be the oldest professional baseball player. Mr. Radcliffe was born in Mobile, Ala., a baseball port that also would deliver Henry Aaron and Satchel Paige. He was one of 10 children who played baseball with his brothers by making taped balls of rags. As a teenager, Mr. Radcliffe and his brother Alec embarked on a two-week hitchhiking trip to Chicago. They settled near old Comiskey Park, a legendary mecca for Negro League baseball. He threw his first pitch in Chicago for the Scrub Packing Co. in a game against the Armour Stockyard Co. Mr. Radcliffe entered the Negro National League in 1928 with the Detroit Stars. He went on to play for the Chicago American Giants, Homestead Grays, Brooklyn Eagles and other stops in the Negro Leagues. In his prime, Mr. Radcliffe stood 5-9 and weighed 210 pounds. He was built like a boxcar and had the heart of a steam engine. Mr. Radcliffe was given the nickname "Double Duty" by New York sportswriter Damon Runyon in the 1932 Negro League World Series when he played both games of a doubleheader for the Pittsburgh Crawfords. In the first game, he caught a Paige shutout; in the second, he pitched a 6-0 shutout. "There were 46,000 people in Yankee Stadium," Mr.
