  • BASEBALL: the OLD DAYS (Originally Published July 1977)
    BASEBALL: THE OLD DAYS (Originally published July 1977) A recent article in Sports Illustrated on Roger Marris brought back memories of baseball—the baseball that once was played more than fifty years ago. In 1961, Marris broke the old Babe Ruth record and, with Mantle batting behind him in the clean-up spot, made up half of the combination the Home Run Twins, which belted out a total of 115 homers that season. Marris' career in the lime-light was relatively short lived as compared to heroes like Ruth and DiMaggio, who preceded him and Mantle who outlasted him. But Marris and Mantle weren't even born fifty years ago. My own baseball heroes were guys you never heard of, like "Deadpan" Bob Dowie, "Oyster Joe" Martina and Ollie Tucker. They used to play for the New Orleans Pelicans back in the 1920s, and they played in old Alex Heinemann’s ballpark on the corner of Tulane and Carrollton Avenues next to the railroad tracks and the New Basin Canal where the Fontainebleau Hotel now stands. Alex was a crusty, cigar-smoking, elderly bachelor, a supposedly philanthropic gent who loved all children. He was especially fond of young boys wearing tight britches. After Alex died, they changed the name of his park to Pelican Stadium. Anyway, in those days, unless you lived in one of the eleven major league cities, the real baseball heroes were those in your hometown, playing in a league like the old Class AA Southern Association or, over here in Georgia, the Sally League. Sure, we kept up with the majors and knew about the Indians and Senators, and about John McGraw's Giants or Connie Mack's Athletics, and the big stars like Tris Speaker, Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, Walter "Big Train" Johnson, "Dizzy" Vance and Hank De Berry, but they were just sport page names of teams and players we read about but never saw unless they happened to come through town for a preseason exhibition with the local club.

    BBaasseebbaallll HHiissttoorryy by Terry Cullen Member, Society For American Baseball Research World Series Facts In the history of the World Series, only 10 teams have taken the field with no players with World Series experience. Obviously this happened several times early on – six times in the first four years of World Series play. The most recent, of course, was the 2003 Anaheim Angels. You have to go all the way back to the 1912 Boston Red Sox to find the last victorious World Series team with no World Series experienced players. That year the Bostonians streaked to 105 wins, then an American League record, in their gleaming new ball park. No Players With World Series Experience 1903 Boston Pilgrims (W) 1907 Detroit Tigers (L) Pittsburgh Pirates (L) 1912 Boston Red Sox (W) 1905 New York Giants (W) 1944 St. Louis Browns (L) Philadelphia A’s (L) 1961 Cincinnati Reds (L) 1906 Chicago Cubs (L) 2002 Anaheim Angels (W) In addition, the 2002 series featured the San Francisco Giants, who had only five players with previous Worlds Series experience. Having five players or fewer totals on both teams has only happened six times, including the first three years of championship play. 1903 Boston Pilgrims (0) vs. Pittsburgh Pirates (0) = (0) 1905 New York Giants (0) vs. Philadelphia A’s (0) = (0) 1906 Chicago White Sox (1) vs. Chicago Cubs (0) = 1 1980 Philadelphia Phillies (3) vs. Kansas City Royals (1) = 4 1986 New York Mets (2) vs. Boston Red Sox (1) = 3 2002 Anaheim Angels (0) vs. San Francisco Giants (5) = 5 On the other side of the coin, the only franchise to ever field a team where all the actual participants had previous World Series experience was the 1908 champion Chicago Cubs.
