ABRAMS* "I want to thank you for making this day necessary" -Yogi Berra on Yogi Berra Fan Appreciation Day in St. Louis (1947) As we celebrate the enactment of the Curt Flood Act of 1998 in this festschrift, we should not forget the lessons to be learned from the legal events which made this watershed legislation necessary. Baseball is a game for the ages, and the Supreme Court's decisions exempting the baseball business from the nation's antitrust laws are archaic reminders of judicial decision making at its arthritic worst. However, the opinions are marvelous teaching tools for inchoate lawyers who will administer the justice system for many legal seasons to come. The new federal stat- ute does nothing to erase this judicial embarrassment, except, of course, to overrule a remarkable line of cases: Federal Baseball,' Toolson,2 and Flood? I.

ANATOMY OF AN ABERRATION: AN EXAMINATION OF THE ATTEMPTS TO APPLY ANTIRUST LAW TO MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL THROUGH FLOOD V. KUHN (1972) David L. Snyder* I. INTRODUCTION The notion that baseball has always been exempt from antitrust laws is a commonly accepted postulate in sports law. This historical overview traces the attempts to apply antitrust law to professional baseball from the development of antitrust law and the reserve system in baseball in the late 1800s, through the lineage of cases in the Twen- tieth Century, ending with Flood v. Kuhn in 1972.1 A thorough exam- ination of the case history suggests that baseball's so-called antitrust "exemption" actually arose from a complete misreading of the Federal Baseball Club of Baltimore, Inc.

Rogue of the DiamondBy Bud O'BaerHal Chase was a slick-fielding first baseman whose fielding impressed the men and whose looks impressed the women. Babe Ruth selected Chase as his first baseman for his all-time baseball team. However, the fast-living liked to make an easy buck by throwing games to win money by betting against his team. Essentially Hal's MLB career was over by 1920 when judge Landis began to clean-up the game by expelling the notorious Black Sox and other known gamblers. Hal Chase was a man who lived by the produce of his glove and his bat, so he went on to play many additional years in outlaw leagues, down in Mexico and even in the semi-professional ranks.

For the talented but well-traveled Juney, his six-hit complete game that blustery afternoon is a mere pre- lude to what he accomplishes two days later, when pitching for Barons in the Maple Creek, Saskatch- ewan, Veterans Day Tournament, when he strikes out 42 en route back-to-back shutouts including a no- hitter in a 4-0 win over Swift Current in the opener. In the tournament finale, Juney allows only two hits and strikes out 18 in an 8-0 victory over Leader. Bur- dett catcher and manager Nick Williams aids Juney’s effort hitting home runs in each game.
