  • An Analysis of the American Outdoor Sport Facility: Developing an Ideal Type on the Evolution of Professional Baseball and Football Structures
    AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN OUTDOOR SPORT FACILITY: DEVELOPING AN IDEAL TYPE ON THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL STRUCTURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad S. Seifried, B.S., M.Ed. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Donna Pastore, Advisor Professor Melvin Adelman _________________________________ Professor Janet Fink Advisor College of Education Copyright by Chad Seifried 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical layout of the American baseball and football professional sport facility from 1850 to present and design an ideal-type appropriate for its evolution. Specifically, this study attempts to establish a logical expansion and adaptation of Bale’s Four-Stage Ideal-type on the Evolution of the Modern English Soccer Stadium appropriate for the history of professional baseball and football and that predicts future changes in American sport facilities. In essence, it is the author’s intention to provide a more coherent and comprehensive account of the evolving professional baseball and football sport facility and where it appears to be headed. This investigation concludes eight stages exist concerning the evolution of the professional baseball and football sport facility. Stages one through four primarily appeared before the beginning of the 20th century and existed as temporary structures which were small and cheaply built. Stages five and six materialize as the first permanent professional baseball and football facilities. Stage seven surfaces as a multi-purpose facility which attempted to accommodate both professional football and baseball equally.

  • Buster Olney's Top 10 Teams
    Buster Olney's top 10 teams: Are the Astros and Dodgers still baseball's best? Buster Olney Postseason performances have outsize value in Major League Baseball, and this is why David Freese shares emotional space with Bob Gibson in St. Louis, why several generations of New Englanders can deftly imitate Carlton Fisk’s frantic wave of a baseball, and why Kirk Gibson is better known for a fist pump than for his lifetime average. The executives who run front offices should divorce themselves from that romanticism of October and November results, and instead be wedded to the large sample size, before those nights when Brad Peacock and Charlie Morton were the best pitchers in baseball. And for the sake of ranking the best teams, we should probably do that too, giving greater weight to what was accomplished April through September. With that in mind, here are the top 10 teams, based on the input of evaluators, with help from ESPN researchers Mark Simon, Paul Hembekides and Sarah Langs. It’s subject to change before the start of spring training, of course, with so many veteran free agents still unsigned. 1. Cleveland Indians It’s important to remember a couple things about the Indians: (1) When the regular season ended, before anybody knew that Corey Kluber would pitch hurt against the Yankees, Cleveland was regarded as the favorite to roll through the postseason, after compiling a 22-game win streak that stretched over the better part of a month. (2) Among all contending teams, the Indians again appear to have the easiest road into the playoffs because most of their division is rebuilding -- the Tigers, the White Sox and the Royals.

  • SF Giants Press Clips Tuesday, March 14, 2017
    SF Giants Press Clips Tuesday, March 14, 2017 San Francisco Chronicle Buster Posey’s absence means more work for Giants’ backups John Shea SURPRISE, Ariz. — Life without Buster Posey continues for the Giants’ pitchers. It could be a while before they get their All-Star catcher back. “Hopefully,” Jeff Samardzija said. Not that Samardzija doesn’t like having Posey around. He’s just rooting for Posey and shortstop Brandon Crawford to play deep into the World Baseball Classic. The Americans advanced past the first round, meaning Posey and Crawford will continue suiting up for the United States at least through Saturday. Meantime, backup catcher Nick Hundley is getting extra work with the pitching staff, probably a good thing for the newcomer who signed a one-year deal in January. On Monday night, he caught Samardzija for the first time. The right-hander worked his pitch count to 76 but gave up seven runs (five earned) on eight hits and two walks in 32/3 innings against the Rangers. “It’s always good to work out those kinks,” Samardzija said. “It’s good to have him back there so he can know what I shake (off pitches) to, what we’re on the same page with, getting a better idea of what we throw.” It was Samardzija’s fourth start. He has thrown to Posey twice and Trevor Brown once. His ERA is 9.82. 1 “Overall, it felt good. I was strong until the end,” Samardzija said. “You always care about results. It’s not the defining factor in spring training, but obviously you want to have good days.

Deputies contacted the unnamed victim, 55, who advised that her next door neighbor, Russell Sawyer, 48, of Ukiah, had entered her home in the early evening hours without permis- sion. According to a press release from MCSO, Sawyer grabbed the victim and attempted to sexually assault her. The victim attempted escape via the front door, however, Sawyer pulled the victim further into the residence against her will. After approximately two minutes of struggling with Sawyer she managed to get free and fled the area in her vehicle. Sawyer was contacted by Mendocino County Sheriff's Deputies at his residence where he was arrested on suspicion of kidnapping to commit rape, assault with intent to commit bur- glary and false imprisonment. He was incarcerated at the Mendocino County jail without bail.
