Negro Leaguers in Service If They Can Fight and Die on Okinawa and Guadalcanal in the South Pacific, They Can Play Baseball in America
Issue 37 July 2015 Negro Leaguers in Service If they can fight and die on Okinawa and Guadalcanal in the South Pacific, they can play baseball in America. Baseball Commissioner AB "Happy" Chandler This edition of the Baseball in Wartime Newsletter is dedicated to all the African- American baseball players who served with the armed forces during World War II. More than 200 players from baseball’s Negro Leagues entered military service between 1941 and 1945. Some served on the home front, while others were in combat in Europe, North Africa and the Pacific. These were the days of a segregated military and life was never easy for these men, but, for some, playing baseball made the summer days a little more bearable. Willard Brown and Leon Day (the only two black players on the team) helped the OISE All-Stars win the European Theater World Series in 1945, Joe Greene helped the 92nd Infantry Division clinch the Mediterranean Theater championship the same year, Jim Zapp was on championship teams in Hawaii in 1943 and 1944, and Larry Doby, Chuck Harmon, Herb Bracken and Johnny Wright were Midwest Servicemen League all- stars in 1944. Records indicate that no professional players from the Negro Leagues lost their lives in service during WWII, but at least two semi-pro African-American ballplayers made the ultimate sacrifice. Grady Mabry died from wounds in Europe in December 1944, and Aubrey Stewart was executed by German SS troops the same month. With Brown and Day playing for the predominantly white OISE All-Stars, Calvin Medley pitching for the Fleet Marine Force team in Hawaii, and Don Smith pitching alongside former major leaguers for the Greys in England, integrated baseball made its appearance during the war years and quite possibly paved the way for the signing of Jackie Robinson. -

Cresse was mired in a miserable College World Series before his final at-bat. The senior was 1- for-12 in the CWS prior to his game-winning single. Trey Hodges pitched four scoreless innings for his second win of the tournament. Hodges, who Brad Cresse overcame a slump at the plate to retired 10 of the 11 batters he faced, also picked up a save and was selected as the most out- drive in the title-winning run for LSU June 17. standing player of the College World Series. The catcher’s single to left field scored team - mate Ryan Theriot, giving LSU a 6-5 win over Wayne gave up four hits and four runs in relief of starter Jason Young. Wayne started the fifth St a n f o r d . inning and seven of his first nine outs were strikeouts, four looking. The Tigers’ normally strong offensive game seemed to be silent. But LSU (52-17) tied it in the eighth inning with two home runs, setting up Cresse’s dramatics. -

No. 15 Ohio State Falls to Purdue 67-65 in Heartbreaking Fashion
No. 15 Ohio State Falls To Purdue 67-65 In Heartbreaking Fashion The No. 15 Ohio State men’s basketball team fell 67-65 to Purdue in heartbreaking fashion despite a 21- point, six-assist performance by junior guard Duane Washington Jr. at Value City Arena on Jan. 19. Purdue freshman guard Jaden Ivey hit a cold-blooded step-back three-pointer over fourth-year junior wing Justice Sueing with just five seconds left to beat the Buckeyes in Columbus. “They made a lot of really tough plays in the game, so give them credit,” Ohio State head coach Chris Holtmann said. “It was a hard-fought Big Ten game. We’ve got to figure out how to get better and move forward. This one obviously stings. We’ll have to move forward. The Buckeyes misfired on their chance to break a 64-64 tie when junior wing Justin Ahrens missed a contested three where he drew contact. Trailing by five with just 1:48 left, Purdue junior forward Trevion Williams made a tough shot over sophomore forward E.J. Liddell before the Boilermakers forced a shot clock violation on the Buckeyes’ next possession. Then, Boilermaker fourth-year junior guard Sasha Stefanovic drilled a three-pointer to tie the game at 64 with just 52 ticks remaining. Liddell drew a foul with 2:11 on the clock, and after making the first foul shot, he missed the second. Senior forward Kyle Young grabbed the rebound on Liddell’s missed free throw and then he found Ahrens for his fourth triple of the game to push the lead to 64-59 with 2:08 on the clock.
