  • Illegal, but Not Against the Rules Commentary by Shanin Specter OK
    August 9, 2007 Illegal, but not against the rules Commentary By Shanin Specter OK, so Barry Bonds did it. What should we think? Many believe Bonds used steroids to break Hank Aaron's home run record, but that's only a beginning point for analysis. Here's the polestar: As legendary manager John McGraw said about baseball, "The main idea is to win. " What circumscribes this creed? Only the rules of baseball. If a runner stealing second knows the fielder's tag beat his hand to the base, but the umpire calls him safe, should he stay on the base? Yes. If an outfielder traps a fly ball, can he play it as if he caught it? Yes. The uninitiated might consider this to be fraud or immoral. But some deception is part of the game. This conduct is appropriate simply because it's not forbidden by the rules. Baseball isn't golf. There's no honor code. Yankee Alex Rodriguez's foiling a pop-up catch by yelling may have been bush league, but umpires imposed no punishment. Typical retaliation would be a pitch in the ribs in the next at-bat - assault and battery in the eyes of the law, but just part of the game of baseball. Baseball has a well-oiled response to cheating. Pitchers who scuff the ball are tossed out of that game and maybe the next one, too. Players who cork bats face a similar fate. Anyone thought to be engaged in game- fixing is banned for life. No court of public opinion or law has overturned that sentence.

  • Clips for 7-12-10
    MEDIA CLIPS – Jan. 23, 2019 Walker short in next-to-last year on HOF ballot Former slugger receives 54.6 percent of vote; Helton gets 16.5 percent in first year of eligibility Thomas Harding | MLB.com | Jan. 22, 2019 DENVER -- Former Rockies star Larry Walker introduced himself under a different title during his conference call with Denver media on Tuesday: "Fifty-four-point-six here." That's the percentage of voters who checked Walker in his ninth year of 10 on the Baseball Writers' Association of America Hall of Fame ballot. It's a dramatic jump from his previous high, 34.1 percent last year -- an increase of 88 votes. However, he's going to need an 87-vote leap to reach the requisite 75 percent next year, his final season of eligibility. Jayson Stark of the Athletic noted during MLB Network's telecast that the only player to receive a jump of at least 80 votes in successive years was former Reds shortstop Barry Larkin, who was inducted in 2012. But when publicly revealed ballots had him approaching the mid-60s in percentage, Walker admitted feeling excitement he hadn't experienced in past years. "I haven't tuned in most years because there's been no chance of it really happening," Walker said. "It was nice to see this year, to watch and to have some excitement involved with it. "I was on Twitter and saw the percentages that were getting put out there for me. It made it more interesting. I'm thankful to be able to go as high as I was there before the final announcement." When discussing the vote, one must consider who else is on the ballot.

  • Henry Aaron, Barry Bonds, Joe Dimaggio, and Ted Williams Casey Stengel
    Quotations from: Henry Aaron, Barry Bonds, Joe DiMaggio, and Ted Williams Casey Stengel Chapter 15 The interesting facts for Chapter 15 focus on the quotations of the four players, mentioned most in this book. They are Henry Aaron, Barry Bonds, Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams. One way of getting to know these players as people with views on the times they lived in is through their quotations. We will now look at some quotations for each of these players. I have added a fifth person to this list, the famous manager, Casey Stengel (the Old Professor was his nickname). Any person with such a nickname must have had a lot to say. In fact, he had his own language called Stengellese. Ted Williams At the age of 42 in 1960 the owner of the Red Sox offered Williams the same $125,000 contract he had in 1959. Ted told the owner he did not earn the $125,000 in 1959 and did not deserve the $125,000 offered. He told the owner to make it $90,000. He then signed the contract. Can you imagine a player today negotiating his contract down? Ted Williams’s Quotations In losing the 1941 MVP Award to Joe DiMaggio, Williams stated, ”I didn’t feel cheated or robbed that year. I believe there isn’t a record in the books that will be tougher to break than Joe’s 56-game hitting streak. It may be the greatest batting achievement of all times.” "Joe DiMaggio was the greatest all-around player I ever saw.
