2016 Major League Baseball Attendance Analysis MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL 2016 ATTENDANCE ANALYSIS Compiled and Written by David P. Kronheim [email protected] © 2017 LAWRENCE PETER (YOGI) BERRA (1925-2015) “He lived his life with pride and humility, and an original open mind. One thing we know for sure: If you can’t imitate him, don’t copy him.” Former President Obama at the ceremony awarding Yogi Berra the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian award. “Yogi Berra is a national treasure, and the world needs more like him.” Dr. Bobby Brown, former president of the American League, and a teammate of Yogi Berra. Throughout this report, there are quotes from Yogi Berra, who was one of the most popular and beloved sports figures in American history. Perhaps his most famous quote was: “It ain’t over till it’s over.” Another was: “You can observe a lot by just watching.” His description of the outfield shadows at the old Yankee Stadium was: “It gets late early out there.” If you think about them, most ‘Yogisms’ make perfect sense. But Yogi Berra was also one of the all-time great players in Major League history. He won the American League’s Most Valuable Player award 3 times, and was one of the best defensive catchers, and clutch hitters ever. The Hall-of-Famer hit 358 home runs, and held many World Series records. Yogi played, coached, or managed for 21 teams who won a league championship, and for 13 World Series winners. He also served as a Spring Training instructor for several other Yankee championship teams. He was chosen to the American League All-Star team in 15 seasons. Yogi Berra was a free-swinging, power hitter. Yet he never struck out more than 38 times in one season. In 1950, he caught 148 games, scored 116 runs, hit 28 home runs, had 124 runs batted in, and struck out just 12 times in 656 plate appearances, with a .322 batting average, just an amazing performance, especially for a catcher. More importantly, Yogi Berra was a decorated member of the United States Navy, who served heroically in the D-Day invasion, and in other battles of World War II. Above all, he was a kind and gentle soul. Yogi, who passed away in 2015 at the age of 90, and his late wife Carmen, were instrumental in the founding and operation of the Yogi Berra Museum and Learning Center on the campus of Montclair State University in New Jersey.

  • An Analysis of the American Outdoor Sport Facility: Developing an Ideal Type on the Evolution of Professional Baseball and Football Structures
    AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN OUTDOOR SPORT FACILITY: DEVELOPING AN IDEAL TYPE ON THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL STRUCTURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad S. Seifried, B.S., M.Ed. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Donna Pastore, Advisor Professor Melvin Adelman _________________________________ Professor Janet Fink Advisor College of Education Copyright by Chad Seifried 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical layout of the American baseball and football professional sport facility from 1850 to present and design an ideal-type appropriate for its evolution. Specifically, this study attempts to establish a logical expansion and adaptation of Bale’s Four-Stage Ideal-type on the Evolution of the Modern English Soccer Stadium appropriate for the history of professional baseball and football and that predicts future changes in American sport facilities. In essence, it is the author’s intention to provide a more coherent and comprehensive account of the evolving professional baseball and football sport facility and where it appears to be headed. This investigation concludes eight stages exist concerning the evolution of the professional baseball and football sport facility. Stages one through four primarily appeared before the beginning of the 20th century and existed as temporary structures which were small and cheaply built. Stages five and six materialize as the first permanent professional baseball and football facilities. Stage seven surfaces as a multi-purpose facility which attempted to accommodate both professional football and baseball equally.

  • Cubs Daily Clips
    September 10, 2016 Cubs.com Lester, Bryant lower Cubs' magic number to 7 By Brian McTaggart and Jordan Ray HOUSTON -- He could have been an Astro, and on Friday night, Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant served up a reminder of the kind of impact he could have had at Minute Maid Park. Bryant, taken by the Cubs as the No. 2 overall pick in the 2013 Draft after the Astros passed on him with the top pick, clubbed a two-run homer in the fifth inning to back seven scoreless from Jon Lester to send the Cubs to a 2-0 win over the Astros, lowering Chicago's magic number to 7. "It still feels like we're just right in the middle of the season, but we feel like we're getting to baseball that actually really matters," Bryant said. "Anything can happen in the full season, so you've got to get there first, and we certainly feel like we're playing really good baseball right now." The Astros have lost three in a row and remain 2 1/2 games back in the race for the second American League Wild Card spot behind both the Orioles and Tigers, who drew even on Friday with Detroit's 4-3 win over Baltimore. "We did have some chances," Astros manager A.J. Hinch said. "Lester's a good pitcher and he has a way of finding himself out of these jams. We did get the leadoff runner on about half the innings against Lester but couldn't quite get the big hit.

  • Dimaggio's Other Streak
    General Admission DiMaggio’s Other Streak by S. Derby Gisclair Member, Society for American Baseball Research In 1933, Joe DiMaggio was an 18-year old rookie playing for his hometown San Francisco Seals in the Class AA Pacific Coast League (PCL). An unknown who had been playing semi-pro ball two years earlier as a newsboy, his name was often misspelled in the press of the day as De Maggio, even after he broke the PCL record for hitting safely in consecutive games set in 1915 by Jack Ness. It wasn’t until Seals owner and PCL vice-president Charley Graham was making arrangements to have DiMaggio’s name engraved on a gold watch presented to him for breaking the record that the question arose. After all, Joe’s older brother Vince, a former Seal who was then playing with the Hollywood Stars, spelled his name DiMaggio. Joe had actually played 3 games at shortstop with the Seals at the end of the 1932 season and had only been invited to spring training in 1933 after his brother Vince argued his case to manager Lefty O’Doul. It worked out well for Joe, who the team signed, but not so well for Vince, who the team released. Luckily for DiMaggio and for the fans in San Francisco, O’Doul moved him from shortstop to right field. DiMaggio was very erratic, always overthrowing the first baseman. His throwing arm was better suited to an outfielder and he was a pretty fair hitter. No one had any idea of what was to come.
