  • Ex-White Sox Slugger Ron Kittle Takes His Cuts for the Chicago Baseball Museum
    Ex-White Sox slugger Ron Kittle takes his cuts for the Chicago Baseball Museum. By Paul Ladewski After what the Cubs went through in the postseason, do you have any sympathy for them given that you played for the 1983 White Sox team that also experienced a sudden and massive slump? There's no sympathy for anybody in this game. There are winners and there are losers. That's how I was brought up to play, you know? There's going to be a W next to one team and not the other. But I don't like to the see the season end for any team. How do you explain that the White Sox scored only three runs in four games against the Baltimore Orioles in the ALCS that season? Good pitching will shut out down good hitting. In '83, we finished, what, 20 games ahead of everybody in our division? A slow time was going to come for us -- and it did. (Laughs.) Orioles starter Mike Flanagan fractured your left kneecap with a pitch in Game 3 of the series. You sat out the last three innings of that game and all of the next one. If healthy, would you have made a difference in the last two games? Nobody knows. I can only attest to what I thought -- I wanted to be the hero every single day that I played the game. Every day. I knew that I would be the goat more times than not, but at least I went into every game with an attitude.

    The Boston Red Sox Saturday, April 18, 2020 * The Boston Globe Fenway Park is ready to play ball, even though we are not Stan Grossfeld The grass is perfect and the old ballpark is squeaky clean — it was scrubbed and disinfected for viral pathogens for three days in March. Spending a few hours at Fenway Park is good for the soul. The ballpark is totally silent. The mound and home plate are covered by tarps and the foul lines aren’t drawn yet, but it feels as if there still could be a game played today. The sun’s warmth reflecting off The Wall feels good. The tug of the past is all around but the future is the great unknown. In Fenway, zoom is still a word to describe a Chris Sale fastball, not a video conferencing app. Old friend Terry Francona and the Cleveland Indians would have been here this weekend and there would’ve been big hugs by the batting cage and the rhythmic crack of bat meeting ball. But now gaining access is nearly impossible and includes health questions and safety precautions and a Fenway security escort. Visitors must wear a respiratory mask, gloves, and practice social distancing, larger than the lead Dave Roberts got on Mariano Rivera in the 2004 ALCS. Carissa Unger of Green City Growers in Somerville is planting organic vegetables for Fenway Farms, located on the rooftop of the park. She is one of the few allowed into the ballpark. The harvest this year all will be donated to a local food pantry.
