  • Progressive Team Home Run Leaders of the Washington Nationals, Houston Astros, Los Angeles Angels and New York Yankees
    Academic Forum 30 2012-13 Progressive Team Home Run Leaders of the Washington Nationals, Houston Astros, Los Angeles Angels and New York Yankees Fred Worth, Ph.D. Professor of Mathematics Abstract - In this paper, we will look at which players have been the career home run leaders for the Washington Nationals, Houston Astros, Los Angeles Angels and New York Yankees since the beginning of the organizations. Introduction Seven years ago, I published the progressive team home run leaders for the New York Mets and Chicago White Sox. I did similar research on additional teams and decided to publish four of those this year. I find this topic interesting for a variety of reasons. First, I simply enjoy baseball history. Of the four major sports (baseball, football, basketball and cricket), none has had its history so consistently studied, analyzed and mythologized as baseball. Secondly, I find it amusing to come across names of players that are either a vague memory or players I had never heard of before. The Nationals The Montreal Expos, along with the San Diego Padres, Kansas City Royals and Seattle Pilots debuted in 1969, the year that the major leagues introduced division play. The Pilots lasted a single year before becoming the Milwaukee Brewers. The Royals had a good deal of success, but then George Brett retired. Not much has gone well at Kauffman Stadium since. The Padres have been little noticed except for their horrid brown and mustard uniforms. They make up for it a little with their military tribute camouflage uniforms but otherwise carry on with little notice from anyone outside southern California.

Mike Schmidt conectó un triple y George Foster un doblete sobre los lanzamientos de Nolan Ryan para producir las primeras dos carreras de los Nacionales en la parte alta del primer inning. Pero en la parte baja, Don Baylor produjo una con doblete y Fred Lynn se voló la barda para dos carreras dando la ventaja a la Americana. En el segundo los Nacionales empatan el marcador y se fueron arriba con una carrera en el tercero anotada por Schmidt después de un doblete. Pero poco les duró el gusto a los Nacionales, pues la Americana anotó dos veces en la parte baja de ese mismo inning con un sencillo, wild pitch, una rola de out, dos hits y un error. Tres entradas después los Nacionales empataron el juego pero la Americana se fue arriba en ese mismo sexto episodio. En el octavo, Lee Mazzilli conectó jonrón y el partido se empató de nueva cuenta; en el noveno Ron Guidry otorgó un pasaporte al mismo Mazzilli con las bases congestionadas para forzar la carrera que sería de la victoria para la Liga Nacional.

  • Pinch Hits, “Leaksville Fans Get Their Man” ©Diamondsinthedusk.Com
    Pinch Hits, “Leaksville Fans Get Their Man” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com On May 25, 1941, 17 days after being released by the National League’s Boston Bees, Wes Ferrell signs with the Leaksville-Spray-Draper Triplets of the Bi-State (D) League to be the team’s player/manager. Ferrell’s hiring is announced by Triplets Business Manager P.W. Zigler, but the initial negotiations for his em- ployment were started (without the knowledge of the team) by a group of “concerned” fans. Learning that current Leaksville manager Tim Murchison is going to resign to take a job back in his hometown (Liberty, North Carolina), several car loads of Triplet fans drive to Martinsville, Virginia, (16 miles) to discuss with Martinsville Wes Ferrell Manufacturers’ manager George Ferrell the possibility of his younger brother 1938 New York Yankees Wes managing the last-place Triplets. George phones Wes at his Greensboro, North Carolina, home and discovers that he is indeed interested in both managing and playing for the Triplets. Encouraged, the fans “pile” into their two cars and drive to Greensboro (69 miles) that evening to con- tinue “negotiations.” Eventually the talk turns to salary and it is at the point that Ferrell realizes that he has been talking with interested fans, not actual team representatives. Afraid that Ferrell might lose interest in the job, 1941 Leaksville-Spray-Draper Triplets the fans hurry back to Leaksville (39 miles) where they find business manager Zigler at his house and inform him of their fruitful discussions with Ferrell. An energized Zigler is able to get the club officials together late that evening and by early next morning he is able to phone Ferrell with the terms of a proposed contract.

    WOOSTER HIGH SCHOOL HONORS ENGLISH II SUMMER READING ASSIGNMENT Welcome to Honors English II. Honors English II is an intensive course for the serious, mature, and capable student that builds upon the language skills learned in previous grades by providing instruction and practice in various areas of the English curriculum: grammar, study skills, vocabulary, reading, writing, listening, and oral communication. Summer Reading Rationale Summer reading helps students to: • Improve vocabulary and other language skills • Maintain reading skills over summer break • Develop fluency and independent reading skills • Become lifelong readers You have two (2) reading assignments to complete over the summer. One, you must complete the reading of Mitch Albom’s book Tuesdays With Morrie and, two, you must read one other book of your choosing from the attached list that contains one of the themes you will find in To Kill A Mockingbird (a book we will read in class when you return). You will be expected to annotate the books since you will be using the information you gather to write an essay about both books when you return to school in the fall. Since you are expected to take notes in the books, you are encouraged to buy your own copies, though you may use post-it notes for the annotating if you wish. You should carefully notice the following elements as you read and use them for the basis of your annotating: character, settings, conflicts, themes, plot development, and literary techniques. Complete this entire process for both books, as well as the starred steps for Morrie. GUIDELINES FOR TAKING NOTES DURING YOUR READING: Required INSIDE FRONT COVER: Character list with small space for character summary and for page references for key scenes, moments of character development, etc.
