That being the case, Wednesday's doubleheader came at a good time for Nick Gordon and LaMonte Wade as the duo helped lead Double-A Chattanooga to a pair of wins over Jacksonville. Gordon (No. 81 overall, Twins' No. 4) and Wade (Twins' No. 13) combined to go 7-for-12 (.583) with two homers and four RBIs over the two games. Gordon, who went 2-for-4 and 2-for-3, has been swinging a particuarily hot bat lately. The 22-year-old is in the midst of a five-game hitting streak and has two or more hits in five of his past seven games. Gordon also has a homer in two of his past three contests, including Game 2 of the doubleheader. Wade, who went deep in Game 1 and finished 2-for-3 and 1-for-2, is hitting .300 through 12 games this season and has multiple hits in three of his past five games. Other top prospect performances from Wednesday's action: • No. 3 overall prospect Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (Blue Jays' No. 1) bounced back from Tuesday's 0-for-5 effort with a 2-for-2 day at the plate. Guerrero singled in the first inning, drove in a run via a sacrifice fly in the third, was hit by a pitch in the sixth and capped his day with a double in the seventh. • No. 33 overall prospect Alex Verdugo (Dodgers' No. 2) is on an absolute tear with Triple-A Oklahoma City. After going 2-for-5 with a double and two RBIs against Round Rock, the 21-year-old outfielder is hitting .643 (9-for-14) with three homers and nine RBIs over his past five games. • No. 57 overall prospect Jesus Sanchez (Rays' No. 4) put together his fourth straight multi-hit game and extended his hitting streak to six for Class A Advanced Charlotte. Sanchez, who is batting .370 through 12 games, went 4-for-5 with a homer -- his third in the past four games. • No. 97 overall prospect Austin Riley (Braves' No. 8) pushed his average to .370 with his third straight multi-hit performance. Riley went 3-for-4 with a pair of triples and has nine extra-base hits in 13 games for Double-A Mississippi. • No. 99 overall prospect Blake Rutherford (White Sox No. 7) and Micker Adolfo (White Sox No. 10) combined for six hits as Class A Advanced Winston-Salem cruised past Down East. Rutherford, who has hits in five straight, went 3-for-5 with three doubles, while Adolfo went 3-for-6 with two RBIs. • Dodgers' No. 15 prospect Connor Wong hit his sixth homer of the season and turned in another two-hit game for Class A Advanced Rancho Cucamonga. Wong, who finished 2-for-4, has multiple hits in four of his past five games and has raised his average from .250 to .364 in that span. • Giants' No. 29 prospect Jordan Johnson extended his scoreless streak to 13 innings as he cruised through seven frames for Double-A Richmond. The right-hander, who picked up his second win of the season, threw 53 of his 76 pitches for strikes, gave up six hits and struck out five. Johnson also didn't issue a walk and has walked just one batter over his past two starts after giving out five free passes in his first outing. • Mets prospects David Peterson (No. 2) and Quinn Brodey (No. 28) -- both members of the 2017 Draft class -- led Class A Columbia to a win over Greenville. Peterson, making his season debut, gave up one run on four hits over six innings, while Brodey extended his hitting streak to seven games with his first career two-homer effort. Brodey, who hit three homers in 63 games last season, went deep in both the eighth and ninth innings, finishing 2-for-4 with three RBIs. • Rangers prospects Pedro Gonzalez (No. 10) and Anderson Tejeda (No. 12) each homered as part of multi-hit efforts for Class A Hickory and Class A Advanced Down East, respectively. Gonzalez hit his second homer of the season, a two-run blast, in the fifth to highlight a 2-for-3, two-RBI day. Tejeda, who also went 2-for-3, hit a three-run homer off of Dylan Cease (No. 61 overall, White Sox No. 5). • Rays No. 28 prospect Resly Linares was nearly perfect in his second start for Class A Bowling Green. The 20-year-old lefty gave up seven runs in 3 2/3 innings in his first outing of the season, but this time around he threw 52 of his 85 pitches for strikes, struck out seven and allowed just two baserunners -- via a hit batter and an error -- over seven scoreless frames. • Yankees prospects Thairo Estrada (No. 10) and Trevor Stephan (No. 15) did their part as Class A Advanced Tampa routed Daytona, 12-0. Estrada, who was making his season debut after recovering from a gunshot wound sustained in the offseason, wasted no time getting back into the swing of things. The 22-year-old doubled in his first at-bat on his way to a 3-for-5 game. Stephan strung together six zeros for the second straight start, lowering his ERA to 1.13. The right-hander walked two, gave up a pair of hits and struck out eight, bringing his season total to 22 punchouts through 16 innings. Sox pitchers managing control, high walk counts By Do-Hyoung Park /MLB.com / April 18, 2018 OAKLAND -- Chicago's young starting rotation is still a work in progress, but there have been some promising hints of consistency from the White Sox starters in the early going. The Sox have gotten at least five innings from their starter in 11 of their 14 games, and in nine of those outings, their starter yielded three or fewer earned runs. With that said, and small sample sizes notwithstanding, the next step for this rotation looks to be cutting down on walks -- Sox starters lead the American League with 43 free passes -- and working deeper into ballgames. "We've done a really good job of minimizing the damage with our walks, no doubt, but at the end of the day, we definitely need to minimize our walks and control that a little bit and focus on staying more aggressive," right-hander James Shields said. The Sox particularly struggled with control in their last trip through the rotation. Shields and Lucas Giolito issued five walks apiece in their last starts, while Reynaldo Lopez issued four walks on Monday despite striking out 10. Wednesday's starter, Carson Fulmer, also walked six in his previous outing. Manager Rick Renteria believes that the early control issues are both mechanical and mental to a certain extent. For instance, Renteria and the Sox pitching coaches have sometimes noted poor angles to the plate in their pitchers' deliveries when reviewing film. But Renteria also thinks that part of the problem stems from a lack of trust in throwing certain pitches for strikes, which he believes will improve as his starters gain experience and confidence throughout the season. "There's a lot of discovery going on, and that will continue," Renteria said. "That's kind of never-ending." That hasn't necessarily just applied to the younger starters, either. After a three-inning start Tuesday in which he allowed eight earned runs, veteran right-hander Miguel Gonzalez noted that he didn't have a good feel for his fastball and had to rely more on his offspeed pitches as a result. Factors such as cold weather and an inconsistent schedule marred by weather-related cancellations certainly haven't helped, either, so the Sox, as they continue to make adjustments and seek consistency as a team, aren't yet too worried about the trend. "We don't really put too much emphasis on the first couple of starts of the season," Shields said.

  • Barney Deforge “Luckie No More” ©Diamondsinthedusk.Com
    Barney DeForge “Luckie No More” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com On a seasonably warm Friday evening in Winston-Salem’s venerable Southside May 14, 1948 Park, the homestanding Cardinals, behind the two-hit pitching of lefty Jack Southside Park Frisinger, take the measure of visiting Reidsville 5-0 in one of four Carolina (D) Winston-Salem, North Carolina League games played that day. At first glance, it seems like just another day of minor league baseball in the Tar Heel State. After all, Winston-Salem, the league’s preseason favorite, currently resides in first place with an impressive 18-7 mark while the fifth-place Luckies drop to 9-12 and a full seven games behind their hosts. And being shutout by the 20-year-old Frisinger, a rising star in the St. Louis Car- dinals farm system, comes as no surprise to Carolina League fans. Said “to be faster than Harvey Haddix,” the burgeoning Cardinals ace limits the Luckies to a pair of singles en route to securing the third of an eventual team-high 18 wins. The 6-foot-1 Kalamazoo, Michigan, native strikes out seven and walks three in the route-going effort. However, several events that take place during the game that are suspicious and, unfortunately, a harbinger of problems to come, both for DeForge and the Carolina League. First, Winston-Salem officials report to the police there is a person in the stands “making heavy bets,” giving Reidsville and two runs which meant that if the Cardinals won by three or more runs, he will win all bets placed.

  • Article Title
    General Admission Ragtime Baseball in New Orleans by S. Derby Gisclair Member, Society for American Baseball Research Ragtime was a new, syncopated music style born in the saloons and “sporting houses” of New Orleans’ Storyville district, an area named after city councilman Sidney Story, who in 1898 authored the legislation establishing the district. It was bounded by Iberville, Basin, St. Louis, and Robertson streets. At the same time that ragtime was gaining popularity throughout the South, the parallel popularity of the city’s professional baseball club, the New Orleans Pelicans, was gaining momentum as well. During the post-Civil War years the center of the baseball world in the South was New Orleans. The city boasted fifteen teams that had joined the National Association, the largest contingent from any southern city. Among these was an amateur team formed in 1865 known as the Pelicans. The city’s first professional team in 1887 as part of the Southern League, the Pelicans became a more stable enterprise in the reconstituted Southern Association that began play in 1901. The early Southern Association operated in a period in baseball known as the Deadball Era, so called primarily because of the type of ball used, but also because of the style of play at the time. It was a game which employed the General Admission scientific method – today known as “small ball” – bunts, hit an run plays, and base stealing. Hitters would choke up on their heavy wooden bats and would try to punch or slash a hit over the infield. Baseball entered the mainstream of the American cultural landscape in the early 20th century and the game’s popularity soared due to increased coverage in newspapers and periodicals.

  • Forgotten Heroes
    Forgotten Heroes: Sam Hairston by Center for Negro League Baseball Research Dr. Layton Revel Copyright 2020 “Sam Hairston Night” – Colorado Springs (1955) “Sam Hairston Night” at the Colorado Springs Sky Sox Ball Park Sam Receives a New Car (1955) Hairston Family at Colorado Springs Ball Park “Sam Hairston Night” (front row left to right - Johnny, Sam Jr., Wife and Jerry) (1955) Samuel Harding Hairston was born on January 20, 1920 in the small town of Crawford, Lowndes County which is in the eastern part of the state of Mississippi. He was the second of thirteen children (eight boys and five girls) born to Will and Clara Hairston. Will Hairston moved his family from Crawford to the Birmingham area in 1922. The primary reason for the move was to find better work so that he could support his large family. Will became a coal miner and worked alongside Garnett Bankhead who was the father of the five Bankhead brothers who all played in the Negro Leagues. By 1930 Will had gained employment with American Cast Iron and Pipe (ACIPCO) as a laborer in their pipe shop. According to United States census records the Hairston family also lived in North Birmingham and Sayreton. Sam spent his formative years in Hooper City and attended Hooper City High School. Reportedly Sam did not finish high school and when he was 16 he told the employment office at ACIPCO that he was 18 and was given a job working for the company. According to Sam he went to work to help support the family and give his brothers and sisters the opportunity to go to school.

  • Rickwood Field, on Birmingham's West Side, Was Completed in August 1910, Just 10 Days After Old Comiskey Park Was Dedicated
    During the spring of 1994, I trailed Michael Jordan during his Minor League Baseball adventure. Much more eventful was taking Negro Leaguer Lyman Bostock, Sr. to his sanctuary of memories. Since my 1994 visit, Rickwood has been restored and hosts the annual turn-back-the-clock "Rickwood Classic" featuring the Birmingham Barons. April 17, 1994---- BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Another world away from the new dreams of Michael Jordan stands the oldest ballpark in America. Construction on courtly Rickwood Field, on Birmingham's west side, was completed in August 1910, just 10 days after old Comiskey Park was dedicated. Almost every baseball legend played at Rickwood, from Babe Ruth, "Shoeless" Joe Jackson and Ty Cobb to Satchel Paige, Reggie Jackson and Hank Aaron. A few weeks ago director Ron Shelton ("Bull Durham," "White Men Can't Jump") filmed scenes for his fall release "Cobb," starring Tommy Lee Jones, at Rickwood. Rickwood is a feisty old dame in her golden years. Though the Class AA Birmingham Barons left in 1987 for the affluent suburb of Hoover, her time is far from up. Almost to underscore that point, the 33-foot center-field scoreboard is punctuated on top by a Bulova clock. The manual scoreboard has been renovated. The stadium's 9,100 seats have been scrubbed down. Period-piece outfield signs remain from the "Cobb" film. And if you're lucky, you'll walk into Rickwood during a sweet spring afternoon and find ex-Pittsburgh Pirate Bob Veale tending to the mound. A Birmingham native, Veale is the Rickwood groundskeeper a couple of times a week.
