  • SF Giants Press Clips Friday, 21, 2018
    SF Giants Press Clips Friday, 21, 2018 San Francisco Chronicle A toast to Hunter Pence and his memorable Giants’ carrer John Shea Hunter Pence gets cheered when he steps out of the dugout. When he takes the field. When he’s introduced as a pinch-hitter. When he gets a big hit. Even when he makes an out. Pence is treated like a legend — an overused word, but perhaps fitting in this case — and a two-time champion who was instrumental and inspirational at the height of the Giants’ glory days. Because that’s who he is, even though he’s hitting a career-worst .211. Pence remains a crowd favorite despite his struggles, despite the team’s struggles, and this will be accentuated in the final week of the season. That starts with Monday’s homestand opener and runs through the Sept. 30 finale against the Dodgers, the final opportunities for fans to stand and cheer the immensely popular 35-year-old outfielder. The Giants plan an on-field tribute to Pence on that last day. “I appreciate it every day regardless of conditions,” Pence said of his love affair with fans. “Ultimately, it just goes to show it’s a big reflection of how good a fan base they are and how good a community the Giants have built. It’s a product of that. 1 “In sports and life in general, not everything’s always positive. But there’s a benefit from some of the difficult things. It’s part of life. The ebb and flow of the good times and the bad times.” Pence is winding down the final days of his contract and, considering the Giants’ plan to reshape the roster and get younger next year, the final days of his career in San Francisco.

The ministry and concerned authorities dealt with the crowd without any incident, but I do not think the issue is over for those poor people who are not demanding the impossible. They only want their right as agreed according to the con- tracts. If they receive their money, they won’t strike. Luckily, the issue ended peacefully and hopefully by now, they have been paid. The strike is nothing new. We regularly see workers rally- ing to demand what is rightfully theirs and what is being wrongly and unjustly held: their salaries. These salaries are in accordance with the contracts they agreed upon before coming to Kuwait. What angers me is the recurrence of such gatherings by poor workers who have no other option, no other recourse and no one to help them. The owners of companies who deny the salaries of their workers must be punished.

  • NFAP Policy Brief: the Contributions of Immigrants to Sports in America
    NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR AMERICAN POLICY NFAP POLICY BRIEF» JULY 2020 THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF IMMIGRANTS TO SPORTS IN AMERICA EXECUTIVE SUMMARY New research shows foreign-born athletes play an important role in professional sports in America. Foreign-born players make up 23% of the rosters in the National Basketball Association (NBA), 29% in Major League Baseball (MLB) and 72% in the National Hockey League (NHL), according to a National Foundation for American Policy analysis. This is the highest proportion of foreign-born players ever recorded for the NBA and MLB. In 1970, 98% of NHL players were Canadian, but by 2018 less than 50% of players on NHL rosters were born in Canada.

The 72% for the NHL is players not born in the U.S. Among the most popular NBA players is Giannis Antetokounmpo, who immigrated to America after he grew up without legal status in Greece. Last season, hitting sensation Juan Soto, who was born in the Dominican Republic, led the Washington Nationals to a World Series victory. In 2019, the St. Louis Blues won the first Stanley Cup in the team’s history with a roster that included all but 4 players born outside the United States. Canada and France are the top source countries for foreign-born NBA players, the Dominican Republic and Venezuela are the leading foreign countries of birth for MLB players and Canada and Sweden are the NHL’s top countries for non-U.S.

    Minor League Transactions: Sept. 26-Oct. 2 • The first wave of free agents entered the marketplace on Oct. 1 as 43 players elected free agency, the majority of them under Article XX(D) of the Collective Bargaining Agreement. It reads in part: “Any player who has at least three years of major league service, or who qualified as a “Super Two” player . and whose contract is assigned outright to a minor league club may elect, in lieu of accepting such assignment, to become a free agent. In the event that such a player with at least three years of major league service does not elect free agency in lieu of accepting such assignment, he may elect free agency between the end of the then current major league season and the next following Oct. 15, unless such player is returned to a major league roster prior to making such election.” • The recalls in this installment are paperwork moves owing to the fact that, with the minor league season and playoffs concluded, players can no longer be sent on optional assignments.

  • Pelicans Franchise History
    PELICANS FRANCHISE HISTORY In 1998, a new home for the new ballclub in town was built and was dubbed Myrtle Beach’s “Field of Dreams.” Baseball was officially back at the beach after a seven-year absence following the 1992 departure of the Myrtle Beach Hurricanes (Advanced-A affiliate of the Toronto Blue Jays). The Pelicans debuted in 1999 and with the team as green as the grass at the new ballpark, the victories began to mount. The newest and freshest team in the historic Carolina League burst onto the scene and made an immediate impact, storming through its inaugural season. 1999 The Birds advanced to the Mills Cup Championship in just their first year, squaring off against the Wilmington Blue Rocks (Kansas City Royals). With the championship series all locked up at two games apiece, Mother Nature decided the set with the arrival of Hurricane Floyd. The storm forced the cancellation of the series and ended the ’99 season abruptly. The Blue Rocks and Pelicans were crowned as co-champs, an impressive accomplishment for the first-year Myrtle Beach squad. That championship run was guided by future National League All- Star Marcus Giles. Giles led the Carolina League in batting average (.326), hits (162) and doubles (40), numbers good enough to earn him league MVP honors. Giles’ double-play partner on the ’99 Pelicans was his future Major League teammate Rafael Furcal. The History small-statured shortstop dazzled Pelicans fans, hitting over .400 for the first month of his stay in Myrtle Beach. “Raffy” helped propel the Pelicans to their first championship and promptly found himself in the big leagues the next season, where he won National League Rookie of the Year Marcus Giles was an N.L.
