Mike Andrews is a character only heard on radio stations in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas . Mike Andrews is implied to be a motivational speaker. He had a show in the Los Santos Convention Center sometime in 1992, which the player cannot watch. He also wrote a book, Rags are Riches . He is a parody of real-life motivational speaker Tony Robbins. He talks and writes primarily about how he believes poor people must stop worrying about the fact that they're poor and instead make the most of the opportunity to be poor. He also claims that the rich people (like himself) need the poor people, comparing them to Yin and Yang, respectively. Ironically, he charges $200 (payable in ten installments) to attend his shows and ridiculous amounts of money to purchase his CDs, making it all seem like a scam to make money. On This Date in Sports July 2, 1970: The No Hitter Killer. With a one out in the ninth inning, Horace Clarke of the New York Yankees spoils Joe Niekro’s bid for a no-hitter at Tiger Stadium. The Detroit Tigers knuckleballer would settle for a one-hitter, winning 5-0. It is the third time in one month that Horace Clarke broke up a no-hitter in the ninth inning, having spoiled history for Jim Rooker of the Kansas City Royals on June 4th and Sonny Seibert of the Boston Red Sox on June 19th. Horace Clarke was born on June 2, 1940, in U.S Virgin Islands. Signed by the Yankees as an amateur free agent in 1958, he spent seven seasons in the minors before making his debut. When Horace Clarke joined the Yankees in 1965, they were a dynasty in decline as they were in the midst of their first losing season in 40 years. When Bobby Richardson retired, Clarke inherited the starting second base job for the Yankees. As more players from the glory days retired, Horace Clarke became the face of the team. He was not a very talented player but worked hard and became respected by the fans. For many Yankee fans, the lead period from 1965-1973 is known as the “Horace Clarke era.” The 1970 Yankees managed by Ralph Houk were a solid ballclub as they posted a record of 93-69 but finished a distant second behind the Baltimore Orioles, the Yankees’ resurgence was sparked in part by Thurman Munson, who won the Rookie of the Year. June was the Yanks’ strongest month, as they posted a record of 17-7. In June, the Yankees were nearly no-hit twice, with Horace Clarke breaking up the no-hitter in the ninth in both games. On June 4th at Yankee Stadium against the Kansas City Royals, were tied up in knots by Jim Rooker. The Royals had grabbed a 1-0 on an RBI single by Bob Oliver in the first inning. Stan Bahnsen kept the Yankees in the game, by not allowing another run. In the ninth inning, he was three outs from history as Horace Clarke led off the inning with a single for New York’s first hit. Clarke would later score on a double by Bobby Murcer. The Royals allowed Rooker to stay in the game until the 12th inning as the Yankees handed him a loss when Clarke hit a sac-fly that scored Jerry Kennedy for a 2-1 win. On June 19th, the Yankees were in danger of being no-hit again, this time by Sonny Siebert of the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. Stan Bahnsen again made the start for the Yankees, this time he was smacked around, allowing five runs in five innings. Boston tallied their offense with the long ball as they got home runs from Mike Andrews, Reggie Smith, and Carl Yastrzemski. The Red Sox added two more runs in the eighth off Mike Kekich as Siebert came to the mound in the ninth inning, with a 7-0 lead. Once again, Horace Clarke ended the no-hit bid with a leadoff single. Clarke’s single sparked a four-run rally for New York, that was capped by a Roy White home run, as Sparky Lyle came in relief and earned the save as the Red Sox held on for a 7-4 win. Facing knuckleballer Joe Niekro at Tiger Stadium on July 2nd, the Yankees showed little spark as Mel Stottlemyre allowed five runs. Niekro himself delivered the first two runs, with a single in the second inning. Later Detroit got home runs from Jim Price and Jim Northrup. Joe Niekro was nearly perfect on a Thursday Night in the Motor City, as he had just one strikeout. After getting Pete Ward to start the ninth with a fly ball to center, Horace Clarke hit a soft ground ball between second and first. Dick McAuliffe made a diving stop at the lip of the grass, but could not get the throw to first base in time to retire Clarke. Niekro would get the next two outs and won the game 5-0 with a one-hitter. Horace Clarke spoiled three no-hitters in the ninth inning in 29 days. To put that remarkable feat in perspective, only Joe Mauer of the Minnesota Twins spoiled three no-hitters in the ninth inning. Mauer did it in a 15-year career. Card of the Week: Mike Andrews 1973 Topps. No, I don’t mean the extreme lo-fi nature of the shot, with its random action, apparently shot out of the upper deck. I mean, how did this card happen? The Chicago White Sox are on the road. The photo should have been taken in 1972. There is Astroturf in the outfield. And based on the baby- blue coloring of the opponent’s helmet, that appears to be Bob Oliver of the Kansas City Royals smothering second base rather painfully on a slide to break up a double play. But Kansas City didn’t move into the Astroturfed Royals Stadium until 1973. Before then, they played at Municipal Stadium, home of the old K.C. Athletics and even the Kansas City Monarchs of the Negro Leagues. But Municipal Stadium never had Astroturf! So, the photo for this card was hastily shot during that opening weekend, right? Look at the long sleeves. Seems like April in Kansas City. Here’s the problem with that scenario: See that No, 42 above? The 1973 Topps set was the last to be issued in series, meaning that every few weeks, a new 132 cards were issued. Andrews being No. 42 means his card was in the very first series of the year. Today, Topps breaks its cards into just two series. The first 350 or so cards are issued before spring training. Later in the summer a second series is released, which does manage to incorporate player moves (offseason trades are almost always depicted with photoshopping rather than authentic game shots from spring training or April games). I can’t determine when the first series of 1973 Topps cards were issued, but there’s no way that this shot could have come from early 1973 action. If Andrews was in the final series of Topps cards from that year, it’s possible. But he’s not. So, OK, I’m stumped on the lineage of this photo. Let’s talk a little bit about Andrews instead. As you see from his card above, Andrews was not a star. When your cartoon blurb highlight is from six seasons earlier and notes you as a league leader in sacrifice hits , you’re not a star. But this card betrays Andrews a bit. He started his career with the Boston Red Sox and actually produced some tidy numbers, with successive seasons of 3.7 and 3.8 WAR in 1968-69. After five years in Boston, Andrews changed socks and headed to Chicago with Luis Alvarado (who will pop up one day in the series, with an undeniably classic 1973 Topps card), in exchange for Luis Aparicio. Andrews didn’t produce much for the White Sox: In 309 career games, he managed just 0.2 WAR, the definition of replacement level. At first blush it seemed that a good comp for Andrews’ career, at least his productive time in Boston, was Scott Fletcher. But, in fact, one of Andrews’ closest career comps isn’t quite Fletcher, but another one in the Fletcher family. Yep, Andrews’ third-closest comp per Baseball-Reference, with 94.6% similarity, is Gordon Beckham . During the season this card was issued, 1973, Andrews was released by the White Sox after 52 games, slashing .201/.302/.258. Andrews’ old manager in Boston, Dick Williams, was helming the defending champion Oakland A’s, and persuaded A’s owner Charlie Finley to sign Andrews.

Emrick A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY June 1976 Approved by Doctoral Committee DUm,s¡ir<y »»itti». UNIVERSITY LIBRARY 11 ABSTRACT From the very early days of radio broadcasting, the descriptions of major league baseball games have been among the more popular types of programs. The relationship between the ball clubs and broadcast stations has developed through experimentation, skepticism, and eventual acceptance. The broadcasts have become financially important to the teams as well as the advertisers and stations. The central person responsible for pleasing the fans as well as satisfying the economic goals of the stations, advertisers, and teams—the principal play- by-play announcer—had not been the subject of intensive study. Contentions were made in the available literature about his objectivity, partiality, and the influence exerted on his description of the games by outside parties. To test these contentions, and to learn more about the overall atmosphere in which this focal person worked, a study was conducted of principal play-by-play announcers who broadcasted games on a day-to-day basis, covering one team for a local audience. With the assistance of some of the announcers, a survey was prepared and distributed to both announcers who were employed in the play-by-play capacity during the 1975 season and those who had been involved in the occupation in past seasons.

  • The Retro Sheet Retro News 9 Official Publication of Retrosheet, Inc
    June 2, 1999 Inside: Volume 6, Number 2 Game Acquisitions 2 Nominations Sought 3 Strange Plays 5 The Retro Sheet Retro News 9 Official Publication of Retrosheet, Inc. There are two topics for this column: game logs and data release policy. The game log story is really just an up- date from last time. Since then Tom Ruane has done a lot of work getting the logs organized. He has had help from Mark Armour who is filling in some of the gaps, especially umpires. In addition David Vincent has written a program that will make access to these logs easy and logical. All that is left is to get the logs posted on the web site, which we hope will be accomplished very soon, perhaps even before you read this notice. The Retrosheet Board of Directors explicitly gave permission to the President of the organiza- tion to decide when a given data file was ready to release. Up to this point, I have been very conservative and we have only released files that had undergone exhaustive proofing. For ex- ample, totals generated from our play by play files agree to the greatest extent possible with the official totals in all batting and pitching categories. For those cases (very few) where our numbers differ from the official totals, we have detailed descriptions of the source of these dif- ferences. The logic behind this slow approach is that I thought it would be damaging to our credibility to release one ver- sion of a file without detailed proofing and then to replace it later after we had made corrections.

AT THE BRINK OF FREE AGENCY: CREATING THE FOUNDATION FOR THE MESSERSMITH- MCNALLY DECISION - 1968-1975 Ed Edmonds* I. INTRODUCTION The period between 1968 and 1975 constituted one of the most dramatic periods in the history of baseball labor relations. From the completion of baseball's first Basic Agreement' in February 1968 through an arbitration panel decision2 that granted free agency in December 1975 to Dave McNally and Andy Messersmith, the events during this period completely revolutionized the relationship between owners and players. When Peter Seitz delivered the opinion for the arbitration panel in Grievance Numbers 75-27 and 75-28, he answered a fundamental contractual question of the duration of a renewed contract. Although the reserve system in baseball was long considered to be essentially perpetual in nature, Seitz ruled that because McNally and Messersmith had completed a full season under the renewed option year of their contracts, they were no longer the property of their respective teams.
