Triple Plays Analysis
A Second Look At The Triple Plays By Chuck Rosciam This analysis updates my original paper published on SABR.org and Retrosheet.org and my Triple Plays sub-website at SABR. The origin of the extensive triple play database1 from which this analysis stems is the SABR Triple Play Project co-chaired by myself and Frank Hamilton with the assistance of dozens of SABR researchers2. Using the original triple play database and updating/validating each play, I used event files and box scores from Retrosheet3 to build a current database containing all of the recorded plays in which three outs were made (1876-2019). In this updated data set 719 triple plays (TP) were identified. [See complete list/table elsewhere on Retrosheet.org under FEATURES and then under NOTEWORTHY EVENTS]. The 719 triple plays covered one-hundred-forty-four seasons. 1890 was the Year of the Triple Play that saw nineteen of them turned. There were none in 1961 and in 1974. On average the number of TP’s is 4.9 per year. The number of TP’s each year were: Total Triple Plays Each Year (all Leagues) Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's <1876 1900 1 1925 7 1950 5 1975 1 2000 5 1876 3 1901 8 1926 9 1951 4 1976 3 2001 2 1877 3 1902 6 1927 9 1952 3 1977 6 2002 6 1878 2 1903 7 1928 2 1953 5 1978 6 2003 2 1879 2 1904 1 1929 11 1954 5 1979 11 2004 3 1880 4 1905 8 1930 7 1955 7 1980 5 2005 1 1881 3 1906 4 1931 8 1956 2 1981 5 2006 5 1882 10 1907 3 1932 3 1957 4 1982 4 2007 4 1883 2 1908 7 1933 2 1958 4 1983 5 2008 2 1884 10 1909 4 1934 5 1959 2 -

Additionally, this section will address the nationwide expansion of the game through leisure time, cultural change, and the Civil War. George B. Kirsch and Harold Seymour have done significant work on the initial expansion of the game, and their research will be included in this section. This background is essential to fully understand the later impact that European immigrants and members of the lower class had on the early game. -
The First Boys of Spring a Film by Larry Foley Dvds: Uapress.Com Contact
The First Boys of Spring A film by Larry Foley DVDs: uapress.com Contact: [email protected] 479-841-0662 Website: thefirstboysofspring.weebly.com Beginning in 1886, baseball spring training was held for the first time in a southern city, not in Florida or Arizona, but in the Arkansas resort town of Hot Springs, and that’s where the annual rite caught on. For parts of eight decades, many of the best who ever played the game, came to Hot Springs to shake off the rust from winters of sedentary indulgence to prepare for long seasons ahead, with such teams as the Red Sox, Dodgers, and Pirates—and the Negro League’s Monarchs, Crawfords and Grays. Winner of Mid-America Emmy Awards for Writing and Cultural Documentary, The First Boys of Spring is a one-hour documentary by filmmaker Larry Foley, Professor and Chair of Lemke Journalism Department at the University of Arkansas. Narrated by Academy Award winning actor Billy Bob Thornton, the film tells stories of baseball Hall of Famers who worked out, gambled and partied in Hot Springs, including Rube Foster, Cy Young, Satchel Paige, Honus Wagner and baseball’s first superstar, Mike “King” Kelly. The film aired twice in February 2016 on MLB Network, with multiple broadcasts on Fox sports networks in summer 2016. It was screened at two separate venues at National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY--11th Baseball Film Festival and 28th Cooperstown Symposium on Baseball and American Culture. It was presented at 21st Baseball in Culture and Literature Conference, Ottawa (Kansas) University and at the Black Archives of Mid America in Kansas City. -

Petition for Reinstatement of Pete Rose to Major League Baseball and for Eligibility to the National Baseball Hall of Fame
PETITION FOR REINSTATEMENT OF PETE ROSE TO MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL AND FOR ELIGIBILITY TO THE NATIONAL BASEBALL HALL OF FAME Peter Edward Rose respectfully petitions the Commissioner of Baseball, Robert D. Manfred, Jr., for reinstatement under Major League Rule 15(c). By voluntary agreement dated August 23, 1989 between Commissioner A. Bartlett Giamatti and Mr. Rose,1 “Peter Edward Rose [was] … declared permanently ineligible in accordance with Major League Rule 21 and placed on the Ineligible List.” As also stipulated by the parties, “Nothing in this Agreement shall deprive Peter Edward Rose of the rights under Major League Rule 15(c) to apply for reinstatement.” Mr. Rose has previously applied for reinstatement, most recently in 2015 to Commissioner Manfred. As he has publicly expressed, Mr. Rose appreciates the time and effort that both Commissioner Selig and Commissioner Manfred devoted to reviewing and considering those petitions. Mr. Rose accepts the decisions issued in response to his prior petitions, and here he advances the new argument that his lifetime ban is disproportionate relative to other punishments imposed for serious violations that also undermined the integrity of the game. Mr. Rose requests that Commissioner Manfred consider this petition in light of recent rule violations by club officials, managers, and players who have severely impugned the integrity of the game of baseball. An in-person meeting with counsel present is requested. By this petition, Mr. Rose asks the Commissioner to reconsider his status on the permanently ineligible list due to its disproportionate nature. Mr. Rose continues to express repentance for his acts in violation of Major League Rule 21. -
