    “The Royals of Sir Cedric” by Steve Treder of The Hardball Times December 21, 2004 At its inception, the most successful expansion franchise in pre-free agency baseball history didn’t impress many observers. The Kansas City Royals devoted most of their expansion draft picks to unproven young players, in distinct contrast to the approach taken by their companion A.L. expansion team, the Seattle Pilots. Take a look at the first ten choices of each club, noting each player’s age and major league experience as of the October 15, 1968 draft: Royals: Player Age ML Seasons ML Experience 1.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

The proper selection of a tennis racquet, type of court surface and balls can help with and significantly shorten the training time and improve the game's technique, as well as to prevent injuries. The main elements of the tennis equipment and facilities are: Tennis court Tennis courts can be of different surfaces: clay, grass, concrete (hard court) or artificial. Depending on th e material used for the surface of the tennis court, four main types of surfaces are distinguished: 1. Clay courts are made of crushed shale stone or brick. They are mainly practiced on by players who play from the baseline. They are used only at the French O pen from the Grand Slam tournaments. Typical for them is the great adhesion/cohesion of the ball, resulting in slower speed, although the rebound is higher than on grass or hard courts. They are cheaper to build than the other types, but surface maintenanc e is more expensive. They are most common in Europe and Latin America. Fig. 6. Red (clay) court 2. Grass courts are the fastest courts on which tournaments are held. Wimbledon is the only Grand Slam tournament played on grass. It is heavily planted into the ground and very difficult to nourish. The rebound on the grass court depends on many factors, the most import ant being the quality of the grass.
