  • 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.

  • A's News Clips, Tuesday, March 8, 2011 Oakland A's Notebook
    A’s News Clips, Tuesday, March 8, 2011 Oakland A's notebook: Reliever Joey Devine walks four of five Mariners he faces By Carl Steward, Oakland Tribune PHOENIX -- For the second straight day, an A's pitcher coming back from elbow ligament reconstructive surgery hit a big rock in the road. Reliever Joey Devine, who had allowed just one hit and two walks in three prior one-inning outings this spring, was less than divine Monday in his first try at pitching after just one day off. Devine, who has not pitched since the 2008 season when he posted a 6-1 record with an 0.59 ERA in 42 outings, looked like a guy who has been off two years. He faced five Seattle Mariners and issued four walks, throwing 18 balls in 24 pitches before being yanked with one out in the fourth inning. "I was off mechanically, I had no feeling out there," said the 27-year-old right-hander. "I was forcing the ball to home plate, whereas my previous three outings I was nice and easy and just delivering it." Devine is vying for one of seven spots in the Oakland bullpen, but like Josh Outman, a fifth-starter candidate who struggled mightily Sunday, Devine learned that getting back in a groove after being out so long will be a process. The good news is that he felt good physically. "It just shows that I still need to work on some mechanics," Devine said. "It's not a routine yet. I have to be able to throw on one day's rest and back-to-back in order to help this team win." After pitching four times in Oakland's first 10 spring games, Devine hopes to take a couple days off to iron out his mechanical issues and let his body rest.

Going, Going, Gone!: How the Home Run Has Changed Major League Baseball Abstract What makes the home run so magical? Why is it the one play in baseball that has stood out above the rest for its ability to bring in fans? The answer lies in the drama and excitement that the home run brings to the game. The home run has constantly been baseball’s grace when faced with falling attendance.
