Maryland State Association of Baseball Coaches (MSABC) in 1981 and Was the First MSABC President Maryland State Association of Baseball Coaches 1982-2003 2004- Updated 29 May 2017 Table of Contents History .............................................................................. 2 Team Rosters & Game Results ......................................... 3 All-Stars .......................................................................... 34 All-Stars by Schools ....................................................... 49 All-Stars in the Majors .................................................... 61 1 History The idea of a state-wide all-star baseball game featuring high school seniors from public, private, and parochial schools representing every district in Maryland was conceived by former Arundel High School coach Bernie Walter, who also helped create the Maryland State Association of Baseball Coaches (MSABC) in 1981 and was the first MSABC President. Sponsorship of the game was obtained from Crown Central Petroleum Company. A spokesman for Crown at the time, Brooks Robinson, the Hall of Fame third baseman for the Orioles, became honorary chairman of the game. The first annual Crown High School All-Star game was played in 1982 at Memorial Stadium between teams of high school seniors representing the North and the South. Growing in stature every year, the venue for the game shifted to Oriole Park at Camden Yards when it opened in 1992. In 2004, when the game lost the sponsorship of Crown, Brooks Robinson, as he had done so many times for the Orioles with a sparkling defensive play at third, saved the game. He sought out Joe Geier, a longtime friend, baseball fan, and Mount St. Joseph graduate, and the Geier Financial Group agreed to sponsor the game. Fittingly, the game was renamed the Brooks Robinson Senior High School All-Star Game. The game is usually played on a Sunday after an Orioles’ game following the conclusion of State tournament play in late May. Today, team selection is a two-stage process. First, players try out for one of four region teams (North, South, East, and West). Those selected then play for their region in one of two games of the MSABC Classic. The top fifteen players from the North vs. West game are named to the North team, and the top fifteen players from the South vs. East game are named to the South team. Teams usually are comprised of four pitchers, two catchers, five infielders, and four outfielders. Alternates are also selected to be available if necessary. Coaches are selected by the game chairman. In the week prior to the game, a press conference is held at Camden Yards to introduce the players, and to meet Brooks Robinson, his health permitting. The game itself is seven innings regardless of the score, with free substitution, and all of the position players in the batting order. Although not batting, each of the pitchers will have an opportunity to pitch. Following the game, a Most Valuable Pitcher and a Most Valuable Player are selected for both the North and South teams. The North leads the series 18-14-2 with one game, 2006, washed out by rain after two innings. To date, nineteen All-Star Game alumni have played in the majors: Josh Banks, Brian Bark, Troy Brohawn, Steve Clevenger, Ken Cloude, Tim Drummond, Gavin Floyd, Steve Johnson, Brian Jordan, Steve Lombardozzi, Justin Maxwell, Denny Neagle, Mike O’Connor, Billy Ripken, Greg Smith, Mark Teixeira, Ryan Thompson, Craig Wilson, and Jay Witasick. 2 Team Rosters & Game Results 1982 North South P Billy Honeycutt Parkville P Tim Drummond Thomas Stone P Joe Mirabile Patterson P Steve Loomis Centennial P Don Sweeney South Hagerstown P Chris Shanahan Churchill P Dave Willis Elkton P Doug Sutton Easton C Jeff Rowe Boonsboro C John Kay Springbrook C Phil Smith Westminster C Keith Morris Queen Anne’s IF Paul Burgee Cardinal Gibbons IF Lewis Jenkins Thomas Stone IF Bill Gensler Patterson IF Jeff Marsh Northeast-AA IF Eric Hineline Patterson IF Scott Rowe Brooklyn Park IF Rob Lippy Dulaney IF William Smith Great Mills IF Tom Mann South Hagerstown IF Craig Wilson Annapolis OF Pat Brown Loch Raven OF Alan Gray Arundel OF Craig Fitchett McDonogh OF Paul Grzyb Thomas Stone OF Jeff Shirk Overlea OF Jim Harvey Parkdale OF Rick Zemanski Calvert Hall OF Swen Thompson Bowie Coach Mel Bacon North East-C Coach William “Bumps” Vaughan Bowie Coach Mike McMillian McDonogh Coach Bernie Walter Arundel Coach Steve Williams Edgewood alt-P Bob McGinty Arundel alt-P Steve Thacker McDonogh alt-C Chris Sullivan Bowie alt-C Kevin Davis Walbrook alt-OF Bob Spears Arundel alt-IF Craig Brooks Kenwood DNP-P Brent Friehauf Bowie DNP-IF Billy Ripken Aberdeen DNP-IF Vince Lawerence Chopticon DNP-IF Steve Spalt Patterson Memorial Stadium North 6 South 4 June 25, 1982 Most Valuable Pitcher: Billy Honeycutt (Parkville) Most Valuable Player: Craig Fitchett (McDonogh) Memorial Stadium did its job of turning high school all-stars into star-gazers during yesterday's inaugural Crown North-South baseball game. The North squad won the contest, 6 to 4. But the outcome was irrelevant for the 30 recent high school graduates who played their game before last night's Orioles-Detroit contest. It was their one chance of living a major league fantasy, and they were properly awed at trodding in the footsteps of Palmer, Singleton, Murray and company. "When we walked in here for a practice Thursday night, everyone was screaming and going wild,” said Craig Fitchett, the McDonogh graduate who tripled home a run, scored 2 others and made a spectacular catch for the North squad to earn the game's most valuable player award. "I've been waiting for a long time to play in this place." The teenagers could take a peek over their shoulders and watch some of the major leaguers watching the game. Detroit manager Sparky Anderson was among the first 300 spectators who showed up for the first pitch. He was later joined by several Oriole and Tiger players, who worked out on the warning track while the game proceeded. Fitchett, a muscular 6-foot-2, 190-pounder, even impressed Detroit Tiger catcher Lance Parrish. “Look at the arms on that guy,” said Parrish, 6-3 and 210, to a teammate. "This was one of the most unbelievable things to be a part of." said Mike McMillan, the McDonogh coach who piloted the North squad. "Every one of the kids enjoyed being in the game. We had 118 kids try out for the teams this season. I hope we have 200 next season." The content was highlighted by a few unusual occurrences. There were 12 stolen bases, including four by Brooklyn Park's Scott Rowe. Rowe led off the South's first inning, reaching first base on an error and stealing second and third before skipping home on a single by Arundel's Alan Gray. In the fifth inning, Rowe had a delayed steal of home. The North used some traditional and untraditional scoring rallies to build a 4-1 lead in the first two innings. Dulaney's Robb Lippy had a 2-run single in the first inning, but in the second, the North scored 2 runs on two passed balls, a wild pitch, two errors, three walks and no hits. The North received excellent pitching from Patterson's Joe Mirabile, Parkville's Bill Honeycutt, Elkton's Dave Willis and South Hagerstown's Scott Sweeney. The foursome limited the South to three hits. Honeycutt was named the game's most valuable pitcher after striking out three batters and allowing no hits in two innings. Mirabile, the starter, won the decision. Fitchett saved the game for the North in the bottom of the fifth, with an over-the-shoulder grab in right field to rob Bill Smith of Great Mills of an extra-base hit and a run batted in. In the sixth, Patterson's Bill Gensler tripled and Fitchett followed with a triple to boost the North lead to 5-2. Fitchett later scored the North's last run on a double play. Bernie Walter, the Arundel coach who put the game together and led the South squad, was ecstatic after the contest “If we had won, I'd be a little happier," he deadpanned. "No one is a loser. You're a star, win, lose, or draw." (Glauber, Bill. "High school 3 all-stars feel magic of Stadium." The Baltimore Sun. 26 June 1982.

For the second year in a row, the North won the game, this time by a score of 6-2. Last year, the North won 7-3. “I think we at least doubled the attendance from a year ago," said Brooks Robinson, a co- chairman of the event along with Arundel's Bernie Walter.

  • Why Did Cleveland Indians Sign Mike Napoli Instead of Pedro Alvarez?
    Why did Cleveland Indians sign Mike Napoli instead of Pedro Alvarez? Hey, Hoynsie Paul Hoynes, cleveland.com CLEVELAND, Ohio – Do you have a question that you'd like to have answered in Hey, Hoynsie? Submit it here or Tweet him at @hoynsie. Hey, Hoynsie: Why did the Indians sign Mike Napoli, 34, for one year to play first base when Pedro Alvarez, 27, was available? Did management know Alvarez hit 27 home runs last season? -- Jimmy Garst, Roanoke, Va. Hey, Jimmy: The Indians did show interest in Alvarez, who was non-tendered by the Pirates and became a free agent. I think a couple of things probably came into play: No. 1, Alvarez was more expensive than the $7 million deal the Indians agreed to with Napoli. No. 2, the Indians felt Napoli helped them two ways – he gave their offense needed pop from the right side of the plate and he improved their defense. Napoli – whose deal should soon be made official – allows the Indians to move Carlos Santana to DH while he will get most of the time at first base. There is no doubt about Alvarez's power, but he made 23 errors at first base last season. I think the Indians preferred Napoli, considering the cost, at first and Santana at DH instead of Santana at first and Alvarez at DH. Hey, Hoynsie: The Reds seem interested in moving outfielder Jay Bruce. Is the Tribe done with its outfield or would it be interested in a guy who is as streaky hitter as there is, but definitely has pop? – Carl Neifer, Cincinnati.

  • Designated Hitters and Subesquent Team Scoring
    DESIGNATED HITTERS AND SUBESQUENT TEAM SCORING PERFORMANCE IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL A RESEARCH PAPER SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE MASTER OF SCIENCE BY SARAH E. CHO DR. HOLMES FINCH – ADVISOR BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, INDIANA JULY 2020 2 ABSTRACT RESEARCH PAPER: Designated Hitters and Subsequent Team Scoring Performance in Major League Baseball STUDENT: Sarah E. Cho DEGREE: Master of Science COLLEGE: Teachers College DATE: July 2020 PAGES: 27 The Designated Hitter (DH) rule in Major League Baseball (MLB) is a topic of great debate. In the National League (NL), all players take a turn at bat. However, in the American League (AL), a DH usually bats for the pitcher. MLB pitchers typically do not have strong batting averages. The DH rule was created to increase a team’s offense. This study looked at whether there is an apparent difference between the AL and the NL. In theory, a DH will lead to more hits, more runs, and therefore a higher scoring game. This study looked at the average runs per game and total home runs for the AL and NL during the 1998 through 2018 regular seasons. Since the assumptions of parametric multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) were not met, a nonparametric analysis was used. The permutation test for multivariate means results showed an apparent difference between the two leagues (p < .05). A quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA) was used as a follow up test and showed home runs as the variable driving the difference between the two leagues. Therefore, the AL has better scoring performance than the NL.
