  • George Paynter Career
    Paner Family Baseball Family The Professional Baseball Life & Times of George W. Paynter (Paner) (“the ball player”) So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past - The thing that connects us is love. 1 My Grandfather, George W. Paynter (Paner), was on his own from about age 13 (1884), after his Father died at age 31. 1800s generations spelling of Paner varied, but in Germanic Cincinnati they likely sounded alike. Throughout his pro baseball playing he was Paynter. He died when I was in the 4th Grade (1950). I only knew him from our one or two visits each year to see extended family in Cincinnati. I often heard - “ So you’re the Grandson of George Paner - the ball player”. Though his single game in the Major Leagues was 50+ years earlier “the ball player” title stuck due to his zest for playing more than 20 years, in and out of town, in very competitive pro and semi-pro leagues until age 42, and rooting for the beloved home town Reds all his life. Kevin Costner’s line in Field of Dreams - "I only knew him later, after life beat him down.", spoke of my Grandfather to me. George Paynter’s baseball and life story is compelling: • Strong semi-pro years, then briefly in minors at Lynchburg VA. (April, 1894) • “Cup of coffee” career single game in the National League (August 12, 1894) • Devastating Southern League game beaning ( August, 1896) • Patient in the South’s first Hospital for the Insane in Tuscaloosa, AL (1896) • Wife’s (my Grandmother) trip to gain his release and, teach him skills again • Losing George Jr at age 11, in a gruesome homicide (1905) • Playing another 15 years of very competitive pro / semi-pro baseball and loving the game a lifetime.

  • Baseball and Beesuboru
    AMERICAN BASEBALL IMPERIALISM, CLASHING NATIONAL CULTURES, AND THE FUTURE OF SAMURAI BESUBORU PETER C. BJARKMAN El béisbol is the Monroe Doctrine turned into a lineup card, a remembrance of past invasions. – John Krich from El Béisbol: Travels Through the Pan-American Pastime (1989) When baseball (the spectacle) is seen restrictively as American baseball, and then when American baseball is seen narrowly as Major League Baseball (MLB), two disparate views will tend to appear. In one case, fans happily accept league expansion, soaring attendance figures, even exciting home run races as evidence that all is well in this best of all possible baseball worlds. In the other case, the same evidence can be seen as mirroring the desperate last flailing of a dying institution – or at least one on the edge of losing any recognizable character as the great American national pastime. Big league baseball’s modern-era television spectacle – featuring overpaid celebrity athletes, rock-concert stadium atmosphere, and the recent plague of steroid abuse – has labored at attracting a new free-spending generation of fans enticed more by notoriety than aesthetics, and consequently it has also succeeded in driving out older generations of devotees once attracted by the sport’s unique pastoral simplicities. Anyone assessing the business health and pop-culture status of the North American version of professional baseball must pay careful attention to the fact that better than forty percent of today’s big league rosters are now filled with athletes who claim their birthright as well as their baseball training or heritage outside of the United States.

The Cor- September 26, 1954 sairs enter their Sunday afternoon game with the Brooklyn Ebbetts Field, Brooklyn, N.Y. Dodgers a full 43 games behind the National League champion New York Giants. Mired in a 2-for-25 slump with only one extra base hit in his pre- vious nine games, Allie begins the season finale against Dodg- ers’ rookie sensation Karl Spooner with a .201 batting average. Allie is hitless in four at bats against Spooner when he flies out to left fielder Sandy Amoros in the eighth inning in what turns out to be his final at bat as a major leaguer. The F7 drops his batting average for the season and his career to .199 (.19856 to be exact). A hit in any one of his four at bats that afternoon would have enabled Allie to finish above the .200 mark. The Statesville, North Carolina, native opens the season in a slump and pretty much stays there the entire summer. Allie fin- ishes April with only eight hits in 49 at bats for a .163 average. On May 4, Allie is hitting only .161, and has committed five errors at shortstop when he is benched in favor of 28-year- old WWII veteran Dick Cole. Allie returns to the starting line two weeks later and promptly goes 5-for-12 lifting his average to an even .200.

  • How Hitters See a 95-Mph Fastball
    Your brain on baseball: How hitters see a 95-mph fastball A 2008 pitch by then­Dodgers reliever Jonathan Broxton and the batter's response are examined in a brain study. (Kirby Lee / US Presswire) By GEOFFREY MOHAN MAY 10, 2013, 5:20 AM wing, batter, batter! In less time than it takes to say that phrase, Major League Baseball sluggers have their bat across the plate, and the best of them are golfing the shot over the S outfield wall. How does the brain "know" when to swing? Researchers at UC Berkeley believe they've found the internal architecture that lets a batter get ahead of the fastball, and allows the rest of us to pour a beer and find our seat in the stands. They pinpointed a region of the brain's middle temporal complex that can "predict" spatial position ahead of its actual location in the real world. For example, in a 2008 game, a baseball is just leaving the right hand of Los Angeles Dodgers reliever Jonathan Broxton, at 95 mph. The eye of Philadelphia Phillies hitter Matt Stairs can't send signals to his brain fast enough. But Stairs' brain is already one step ahead, moving perception of the ball forward and "predicting" where it will cross home plate. Neurons twitch, the left­handed hitter's well­honed motor skills are activated, and ­­ crack! ­­ Stairs sends the ball deep into the right­field pavilion, and the Phillies go on to win Game 4 of the 2008 National League Championship Series, and eventually the series itself.

  • Negro League Baseball History
    TEAM UP OCTOBER NEWSLETTER 2020 NEGRO LEAGUE BASEBALL HISTORY From the 1880s until 1947 — more than 60 years — white people did not let black people play in Major League Baseball with them. There was a time in America when it was widely accepted that people were not allowed to do things because of the color of their skin. African Americans had to use different bathrooms and drink from different water fountains than white people. They could not to go to hotels or restaurants that served white customers. Even though there have been laws passed making this discrimination illegal, racism still exists. This racism did not stop black baseball players from playing the game they love. By the 1900s, African Americans formed their own baseball leagues. In 1910, Andrew “Rube” Foster, a black player and manager, became owner of the all-black Chicago American Giants. In 1920, he helped organize the Negro National League. Life in the Negro National League was not easy. Teams struggled to make a profit. Players had to travel long distances, often in broken-down buses. They were paid very little, sometimes only $100 a month, while white ballplayers made three to four times more than that in the Major Leagues. For more than 30 years the Negro National League was very successful and large crowds attended the games. In 1947, Jackie Robinson became the first black player to move from the Negro League to Major League Baseball, playing for the Brooklyn Dodgers. This was the beginning of baseball integration — black and white ballplayers playing together. It also started the decline and eventual end of the Negro National League.

If he wants to break camp on the club’s roster, he has to build up his stamina and prove he can handle a starter’s workload. And because the Angels had their second of two spring days off Monday, Skaggs’ start on regular rest had to come in a minor league game. So, Skaggs faced a group of overmatched Milwaukee Brewers Class-A hitters at Tempe Diablo Stadium. With General Manager Billy Eppler, Manager Mike Scioscia and other club officials in attendance, Skaggs struck out five, walked one, and yielded a triple.
