  • A Geographic Analysis of Professional Baseball's First-Year Player Signings, 1965-1977
    A GEOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL'S FIRST-YEAR PLAYER SIGNINGS, 1965-1977 By MARK WILSON ,,RUPERT Bachelor of Arts Ohio State University Columbus, Ohio 1974 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE May, 1980 \~~'S~S \C\ io ~C\1451 Q.ic~· 1- A GEOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL 1 S FIRST-YEAR PLAYER SIGNINGS, 1965- 1977 Thesis Approved: Thesis Advi & Dean of the Graduate College 1057~29 ii PREFACE This project was initiated in December, 1977 when Dr. John F. Rooney handed me a carton of papers dealing with contemporary profes­ sional baseball player signings. My original plan was to analyze only a portion of the data for a paper to be presented the following April at the annual meeting of the Association of American Geographers. I became so engrossed with the subject that I soon decided to thoroughly examine the entire data set for a masters thesis. A two-month tour of many of the major league ballparks during the summer of 1978 further aroused my curiosity for the subject. The intertwining of baseball and geography has since become a personal labor of love. It is hoped that others might find this thesis interesting and informative. I must thank Dr. Rooney for making the data available and for his invaluable expertise as my major adviser. Thanks are also extended to Dr. Stephen W. Tweedie and Dr. George 0. Carney for their interest and timely advice. I am indebted to Gayle Maxwell and her cartography staff for their professional work on the maps included in this thesis.

'Right now, near the top,' Molitor says Phil Miller | Star Tribune | November 24, 2015 I’ve seen a handful of “projected lineups” for the Twins lately, from fans and media both, and most of them seem to have one notable thing in common: Joe Mauer isn’t near the top anymore. Most appraisals expect Mauer to bat sixth or seventh, ceding the spots above him mostly to power hitters, usually Trevor Plouffe or Brian Dozier. We’ll see what happens come spring training, but the actual decision-maker on this issue doesn’t sound nearly as eager to demote the three-time batting champion to the bottom. Paul Molitor talked about his lineup a couple of weeks ago at Torii Hunter’s press conference, and among other things, defended his inclination to bat Mauer second or third. “I know everyone likes to speculate [about], am I going to have the courage to put him down there at some point in his career? I don’t look at it that way,” Molitor said.

    Los Angeles Times: Lyman Bostock didn't just talk about giving back http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-crowe22apr22,1,2268596,print.column http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-crowe22apr22,1,7617073.column From the Los Angeles Times CROWE'S NEST Lyman Bostock didn't just talk about giving back Angels outfielder made headlines in 1978 when he offered to forfeit salary after a slow April at the plate. Today it is all but forgotten, overshadowed by his tragic shooting death five months later. Jerry Crowe April 22, 2008 Thirty years ago this month, Lyman Bostock made a move so outrageous and uncharacteristic for a professional athlete that, had the Angels outfielder not been fatally shot five months later, baseball fans might still talk about it. If not for the tragic way his life ended -- in the wrong place at the wrong time, cut down in his prime -- they might say it was his crowning glory. In April 1978, Bostock offered to forfeit his salary. Mired in a horrendous slump after signing a rich free-agent contract with the Angels in November 1977, the former Cal State Northridge and Manual Arts High star told owner Gene Autry, in essence, he didn't deserve to be paid. "Today," says Dick Enberg, the Angels' announcer back then, "I think we'd all need to be slapped around to wake up if somebody took a step like that." But this was no stunt. "What you saw is what you got from Lyman," Bob Hiegert, who coached Bostock at Cal State Northridge, says of his principled former player.
