    Baseball world lauds Jerome Holtzman -- chicagotribune.com Page 1 of 3 www.chicagotribune.com/sports/chi-22-holtzman-baseballjul22,0,5941045.story chicagotribune.com Baseball world lauds Jerome Holtzman Ex-players, managers, officials laud Holtzman By Dave van Dyck Chicago Tribune reporter July 22, 2008 Chicago lost its most celebrated chronicler of the national pastime with the passing of Jerome Holtzman, and all of baseball lost an icon who so graciously linked its generations. Holtzman, the former Tribune and Sun-Times writer and later MLB's official historian, indeed belonged to the entire baseball world. He seemed to know everyone in the game while simultaneously knowing everything about the game. Praise poured in from around the country for the Hall of Famer, from management and union, managers and players. "Those of us who knew him and worked with him will always remember his good humor, his fairness and his love for baseball," Commissioner Bud Selig said. "He was a very good friend of mine throughout my career in the game and I will miss his friendship and counsel. I extend my deepest sympathies to his wife, Marilyn, to his children and to his many friends." The men who sat across from Selig during labor negotiations—a fairly new wrinkle in the game that Holtzman became an expert at covering—remembered him just as fondly. "I saw Jerry at Cooperstown a few years ago and we talked old times well into the night," said Marvin Miller, the first executive director of the Players Association. "We always had a good relationship. He was a careful writer and, covering a subject matter he was not familiar with, he did a remarkably good job." "You don't develop the reputation he had by accident," said present-day union boss Donald Fehr.

  • Dave Elmore Named King of Baseball
    For Immediate Release November 17, 2016 Dave Elmore Named King of Baseball ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Minor League Baseball announced today that David G. Elmore, owner and founder of Elmore Sports Group, has been named the 2016 King of Baseball. The King of Baseball is a long-standing tradition in which Minor League Baseball recognizes a veteran of professional baseball for longtime dedication and service. Elmore will receive the King of Baseball Award at the Baseball Winter Meetings Banquet on Sunday, Dec. 4, at Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center in National Harbor, Maryland. “This is a truly amazing honor to be named the King of Baseball,” said Elmore. “There is nothing I have enjoyed more than being a part of Minor League Baseball for these past 36 years and realizing the great good our teams do to bring our communities together and provide countless charitable benefits.” “Dave Elmore has had a long and illustrious career as a Minor League Baseball owner and operator, and he has served Minor League Baseball in a number of roles over the years,” said Minor League Baseball President & CEO Pat O’Conner. “He has truly earned this honor through all of his hard work and tireless efforts for the betterment of the game and it is my pleasure to present him with this award.” Elmore founded the Elmore Sports Group in 1969, which now consists of six Minor League Baseball teams, including the Colorado Springs Sky Sox, San Antonio Missions, Inland Empire 66ers, Lynchburg Hillcats, Idaho Fall Chukars and Eugene Emeralds. The company also owns hockey and soccer teams, along with facility management, travel, hospitality, special events and concession companies.

  • Savvy Trades Mark Timeline of Sox Rebuilding Projects
    Savvy trades mark timeline of Sox rebuilding projects By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Wednesday, January 25, 2017 If White Sox GM Rick Hahn really scores long-term in his first two deals of the newly-minted rebuilding era, he’ll mere- ly be following a successful blueprint from past housecleaning efforts. Sox fans had their first crack at meeting the products of the deals at a SoxFest with a very different theme this winter that was as much about the future as the Nellie Fox (from) left, Minnie Minoso and Sherman present and past. Lollar all were acquired by Frank (Trader) Lane. Going back to the start of the "Go-Go Sox" era at the dawn of the Fifties, the Sox have frequently supplemented home-grown prospects with trades that netted young talent. The only exception was a kind of reverse-rebuilding after the 1959 season, in which the Sox foolishly traded all their best young hitting talent for veterans in an ultimately un- successful attempt to beef up the lineup to ensure a repeat pennant. The voluble, colorful Frank (Trader) Lane is given credit for assembling the Go-Go teams that finally buried the decades of hubris from the 1919 Black Sox. If Hahn could strike gold in the same fashion as Lane, he’ll be remembered long after his own GM ten- ure concludes. One of the greatest trades in Sox history took place soon after the 1949 season. Lane ob- tained second baseman Nellie Fox, who had just broken into the Philadelphia Athletics’ lineup in ‘49, for catcher Joe Tipton.

    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings December 15, 2015 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1933 - The major leagues agree on a uniform ball, to be livelier than the National League ball and to match the American League balls. Owners also agree to ban Sunday doubleheaders until after June 15. MLB.COM Commissioner Manfred denies reinstatement for Rose Hall of Fame: All-time hits leader 'remains ineligible' for Cooperstown consideration By Paul Hagan / MLB.com Pete Rose, who was given a lifetime ban for betting on baseball, will not be reinstated and will continue to be banned from working in baseball, Commissioner Rob Manfred announced Monday. "Mr. Rose has not presented credible evidence of a reconfigured life either by an honest acceptance by him of his wrongdoing, so clearly established by the Dowd Report, or by a rigorous, self-aware and sustained program of avoidance by him of the circumstances that led to his permanent eligibility in 1989. Absent such credible evidence, allowing him to work in the game presents an unacceptable risk of a future violation by him of Rule 21, and thus to the integrity of our sport," Manfred wrote. "I, therefore, must reject Mr. Rose's application for reinstatement." The all-time hits leader, 74, was placed on the permanently ineligible list for violating Major League Baseball's strict rule against betting on baseball on Aug. 23, 1989. Subsequently, the Board of Directors of the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum declared that all players on that list would also be ineligible for election. Manfred's decision, which was communicated to Rose both verbally and in writing, does not directly address that issue.

  • Great Outing, Even Greater People in Sandy
    Whether pitching in Wrigley Field or Dodger Stadium, Sandy Koufax almost always got a fight from the Cubs. (Photos courtesy of the Leo Bauby Collection). Great outing, even greater people in Sandy Koufax perfecto against Chicago Cubs By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Thursday, September 3, 2015 (Second of a two-part series on the 50th anniversary of Sandy Koufax’s perfect game against the Cubs on Sept. 9, 1965 in what may have been the greatest pitching duel in history with Chicago lefty Bob Hendley.) On the surface, the Sandy Koufax perfect game is part of baseball mythology, Koufax’s fastball growing ever faster over the decades, the Cubs’ swings even more futile, the lone run scored even more fluky, the only hit in the game even more shaky. Oral history is the main conduit of its memories, and you know how baseball stories get exaggerated as time progresses. It might as well have taken place in the 19th Century, given how 15 years into the TV era — and with the dramatic expansion of network color telecasts beginning the next week — only three innings of halting home-movie film ex- ists (see accompanying story below). Three network-owned stations and four other inde- pendent VHF stations in Los Angeles, all with regular newscasts, declined to film the game despite the Dodgers’ position in the pennant race. The radio broadcast recordings were cobbled together. www.ChicagoBaseballMuseum.org [email protected] Statistically, the game was the greatest pitching duel Editor's note: in history. Koufax and Hendley took no-hitters into the seventh inning.

  • At 84, Hemond Leads Nostalgia League in Stamina
    At 84, Hemond leads nostalgia league in stamina By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Monday, June 30th, 2014 CINCINNATI — The Bill Veeck apple doesn’t fall far from the tree with Roland Hemond. Here, it was a typically warm, humid early-summer night in The Queen City of America’s Rhineland. The clock kept ad- vancing on 9:30, 10, 10:30 and finally 11 p.m. at the Green Di- amond Gallery, one of the most sensational sports museums in the country. And there was Hemond, one of the most en- during baseball executives of our era, holding court without regard for time or any flagging energy on his part. Consider the scene when Hemond is 84 and doesn’t act his age. George Castle Hemond received his boot-camp training in baseball on late nights from Veeck between 1975 and 1980 in the old Bards Room at Comiskey Park or Miller’s Pub on Wabash Sreet on the other side of the Palmer House hotel, in downtown Chicago. Gabbing about baseball and life as only Baseball’s Barnum could, Veeck trained his listening party to fight sleep and start the day fresh. Hemond had no choice but to learn as his eyelids grew heavy as Veeck’s trusted White Sox general manager. Veeck would finally break up the bull sessions in the wee hours and show up at 35th and Shields promptly at 9 a.m. — expecting Hemond to do the same — to begin another business day. Some 35 years later, here is Hemond, doing his scheduled 7 p.m.
