  • Ballparks As America: the Fan Experience at Major League Baseball Parks in the Twentieth Century
    BALLPARKS AS AMERICA: THE FAN EXPERIENCE AT MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL PARKS IN THE TWENTIETH CENTURY A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Seth S. Tannenbaum May 2019 Examining Committee Members: Bryant Simon, Advisory Chair, Department of History Petra Goedde, Department of History Rebecca Alpert, Department of Religion Steven A. Riess, External Member, Department of History, Northeastern Illinois University © Copyright 2019 by Seth S. Tannenbaum All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation is a history of the change in form and location of ballparks that explains why that change happened, when it did, and what this tells us about broader society, about hopes and fears, and about tastes and prejudices. It uses case studies of five important and trend-setting ballparks to understand what it meant to go to a major league game in the twentieth century. I examine the Polo Grounds and Yankee Stadium in the first half of the twentieth century, what I call the classic ballpark era, Dodger Stadium and the Astrodome from the 1950s through the 1980s, what I call the multi-use ballpark era, and Camden Yards in the retro-chic ballpark era—the 1990s and beyond. I treat baseball as a reflection of larger American culture that sometimes also shaped that culture. I argue that baseball games were a purportedly inclusive space that was actually exclusive and divided, but that the exclusion and division was masked by rhetoric about the game and the relative lack of explicit policies barring anyone.

  • Baseball's Most Devoted Fan Dr. James Penniman, of Philadelphia, Has Two Hobbies - to Collect and Give Away Libraries and to Watch Ball Games
    Baseball's most devoted fan Dr. James Penniman, of Philadelphia, has two hobbies - to collect and give away libraries and to watch ball games ... By Harry Robert. Reprinted from the Baseball magazine of December, 1929 ... Norwich, Conn. Bulletin Print. [1929]. Baseball's Most Devoted Fan Dr. James Penniman, of Philadelphia, Has Two Hobbies—To Collect and Give Away Libraries and to Watch Ball Games. He Has Attended Thousands of Major League Contests, is a Close Student of the Game and Has Pronounced and Original Ideas By HARRY ROBERT Reprinted from the Baseball Magazine of December, 1929 Loud, boisterous and plentiful have been the yells with which Philadelphia baseball addicts split the air this season, especially at Shibe Park. For it was there that the Athletics won the American League pennant and the right to meet the Chicago Cubs in the play-off between the two leagues, bringing the first World Series to that championship-hungry city in fourteen years. Among those roaring hordes, one with an occasional glance for something besides the play on the field might have noticed a quiet, dignified man who seldom raises his voice, and who could be seen reading a book while the teams were changing sides, or during some other lull in the activity. He might have been taken for one who wandered in to while away a few hours that hung heavily upon his hands. Nothing could be further from the truth. This man was Dr. James Hosmer Penniman, Litt. D. and brother of Josiah Harmar Penniman, provost of the University of Pennsylvania.
