  • Donald L. Korb Chief Counsel, Internal Revenue Service Speech
    Donald L. Korb Chief Counsel, Internal Revenue Service Speech at Baseball Hall of Fame to Tax Section of New York State Bar Association in Cooperstown, New York Saturday, July 15, 2006 Thanks to Kim Blanchard for thinking of me and inviting me to speak here this evening. And thanks for the great reports you and your colleagues prepare for us. My wife Pat came with me to Cooperstown for the weekend. She just joined me in Washington, D.C. after two years of my commuting back and forth to our home to Cleveland. When I told her that we were going to celebrate her arrival in Washington by going to the Baseball Hall of Fame, and not only that, but we were going there to attend a meeting of tax lawyers, her response was “After all of these years” – and we have been married for 34 years – “you still really know how to win a girl’s heart.” When I was a young boy playing pick-up baseball on the sandlots back in Cleveland, I would often daydream – as I was standing out there in right field – about being enshrined in the Baseball Hall of Fame here in Cooperstown. And I would also fantasize about what I would say during my acceptance speech on that momentous – albeit hypothetical – occasion. Well since I am now 58 years old and still can’t hit a curve ball, I guess my talk to you tonight is about as close as I will ever get to fulfilling that particular dream. I was walking around the museum earlier this afternoon and I came across an exhibit that I suspect is little noticed by the average baseball fan who visits here.

  • “The Royals of Sir Cedric” by Steve Treder of the Hardball Times December 21, 2004
    “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. Roger Nelson 24 2 78 innings 2. Joe Foy 25 3 1,515 at-bats 3. Jim Rooker 26 1 5 innings 4. Joe Keough 22 1 98 at-bats 5. Steve Jones 27 2 36 innings 6. Jon Warden 22 1 37 innings 7.
