  • The Personal Collection of Thurman Munson
    The Personal Collection of Thurman Munson ne of the most rewarding aspects of this profession has been the opportunity to meet many individuals within the baseball community throughout the years. I can easily state that my initial visit to Canton, Ohio to meet with Diana O Munson was one of my more memorable, yet simple excursions. Viewing Thurman Munson’s collection within his very office is a privilege that I will recall many times in the future. The awards, significant baseballs, bats, photos, and various paper materials all provided some sort of tangible validation for the player that we all remember. By any standard, and for any era within the game, Thurman Munson’s accomplishments on the field are significant. Born on June 6th, 1947 in Akron, Ohio, Munson was a multi-sport star in high school. He attended Kent State University on a baseball scholarship and was an All-American catcher. Thurman’s pro career began with brief stints with the Binghamton Triplets in the Eastern League, and the Syracuse Chiefs, prior to being called up by the Yankees during the '69 season. Munson played so well during the remainder of the '69 season that he won the job of Yankees starting catcher in spring training of 1970. After batting .302 with 7 home runs, 57 RBIs, and 80 assists, he was named the American League Rookie of the Year. From the start, Munson’s leadership by example was apparent. His demeanor and hard-nosed style of play earned him instant respect, and ultimately, the position of team captain.

  • The Cincinnati Reds
    The Cincinnati Reds: A History, an Era of Greatness, and Recollections of a Fan Dr. Anthony o. Edmonds Advisor Dirk D. Haire LD. 499 May 4, 1990 ;,,- - ) cincinnati. To most baseball fans this city represents the beginning of spring and the start of a new season. For being the nation's first professional baseball team and a charter member of the National League, the Cincinnati Reds are given the honor of hosting the opening game of each new National League season. since the original Red Stockings took the nation by storm, winning sixty-eight games against no defeats in 1869, cincinnati's baseball fortunes have vacillated between the best of times and the worst of times. Growing up in the middle Ohio Valley region, I, like many other children of the area, became a cincinnati Reds fan. This interest, for me, has grown into a passion. Over the years I have learned many things about the Reds and their history from my parents, my grandparents, friends, books, broadcasts, and other sources. In this thesis I will construct a brief history of the Reds and their importance to the city of Cincinnati. Then I will discuss the rise of the Big Red Machine and the powerful Reds teams of the 1970's, followed by a description of the dismantling of the Machine in the 1980's. The final section of this paper will reflect my own experiences of growing up in Reds' country. The origins of the present day Reds can be traced to July 23, 1866. On this date at the law office of Tilden, Sherman, and Moulton, the Cincinnati Baseball Club was established by local attorneys Alfred T.
