Chairman’s Letter Thanks to all who attended the Business of Baseball Committee’s annual meeting during the Louisville convention. Some developments from the convention: New Co-Chair. A hearty welcome to Claudia Perry, new Co-Chair of the Business of Baseball Committee. Claudia, who also co-chairs the Women in Baseball Committee, has held numerous SABR offices and is our only four-time Jeopardy champion. In real life she’s a pop music critic at the Newark Star-Ledger. Claudia can be reached at 311 York Street, Jersey City, NJ 07302, or at [email protected]. Proposed Business of Baseball Award. At our annual meeting, Don Coffin proposed that the Committee establish an annual award for excellence in research into the business of baseball. The award -- a cash prize of approximately $200, raised through sponsorship or donations -- would be given annually at the SABR convention. Don and I believe that such an award could raise the Committee’s visibility among academics and other non-SABRites researching in our field, attracting new members and encouraging non- members to send copies of their work to the Committee. Some details of Don’s proposal: • All research published or completed during the previous calendar year would be eligible. • Candidates need not be SABR members, and may be nominated by others or nominate themselves.

    PLATT FAMILY RECORDS CENTER NOTES Volume 3.1 compiled by Lyman D. Platt, Ph.D. Platt Family Records Center The Redwoods, New Harmony, Utah 2008 2 The Platt Family Records Center Copyright © 2008 The Lyman D. Platt Family Protection Trust All Rights Reserved Manufactured in the U.S.A. 3 INTRODUCTION Over many years the collections that comprise the Platt Family Records Center (PFRC) have been gathered from a diversity of sources and locations. These have been cataloged as they have been received, or in the order that they were initially organized. It was not felt in preparing this final version that a re-cataloging was necessary due to the versatility of the indexing systems used. There are twelve divisions to the PFRC: 1) Documents; 2) Letters; 3) Notes; 4) Family Histories; 5) Journals & Diaries; 6) Manuscripts; 7) Photographs; 8) Maps; 9) Books; 10) Genealogies; 11) Bibliography; and 12) Indexes. The collection that follows - Notes - is divided into several volumes, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, etc. These notes do not contain all of the material that I have collected, but they are a compilation of much of it. Some information went directly into histories, family group records, pedigree charts and short biographies. Copies of these volumes have been given to: 1) Special Collections, Marriott Library, Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah; 2) The Church Historical Library, Salt Lake City, Utah; 3) Special Collections, Southern Utah University, Cedar City, Utah; and 4) The Daughters of the Utah Pioneers Museum, Salt Lake City, Utah. Additional copies have been given to each of my siblings and to some of our children.

    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES THURSDAY, MAY 31, 2018 HOUSTON'S DOMINANCE ON THE MOUND On Memorial Day against the New York Yankees, All-Star starting pitcher Justin Verlander delivered 6.2 innings of one-run ball to lead Houston to a 5-1 victory. Monday's team pitching performance was the 36th outing this season in which the Astros limited the oppositioin to two earned runs- or-fewer, and the 23rd contest that Houston surrendered one earned run- or-fewer. Playing in their 57th game of the season last night, this year's Astros Club is just the 10th team in Baseball to limit opposing Clubs to two earned runs-or-fewer in at least 35 of its team's fi rst 57 games, since 1930. The Club is the fi rst to accomplish the feat since the 1972 Baltimore Orioles, who were led by Hall of Famer Jim Palmer. As seen from the detailed chart below, the 2018 Astros logged the most strikeouts (363) of any Club, while also limiting the opposition to the fewest hits (192). Having limited opponents to one earned run-or-fewer in 23 contests thus far this season, this year's Astros Club is the 20th in the Majors since 1940, and the fi rst since the 1989 San Francisco Giants, to post at least 23 such games in its fi rst 57 contests. The 1968 Cleveland Indians hold the Major League record since 1940, logging 28 such outings. Entering play today, three Astros starting pitchers rank in the top-four in ERA among qualifed AL hurlers.
