  • Fair Ball! Why Adjustments Are Needed
    © Copyright, Princeton University Press. No part of this book may be distributed, posted, or reproduced in any form by digital or mechanical means without prior written permission of the publisher. CHAPTER 1 Fair Ball! Why Adjustments Are Needed King Arthur’s quest for it in the Middle Ages became a large part of his legend. Monty Python and Indiana Jones launched their searches in popular 1974 and 1989 movies. The mythic quest for the Holy Grail, the name given in Western tradition to the chal- ice used by Jesus Christ at his Passover meal the night before his death, is now often a metaphor for a quintessential search. In the illustrious history of baseball, the “holy grail” is a ranking of each player’s overall value on the baseball diamond. Because player skills are multifaceted, it is not clear that such a ranking is possible. In comparing two players, you see that one hits home runs much better, whereas the other gets on base more often, is faster on the base paths, and is a better fielder. So which player should rank higher? In Baseball’s All-Time Best Hitters, I identified which players were best at getting a hit in a given at-bat, calling them the best hitters. Many reviewers either disapproved of or failed to note my definition of “best hitter.” Although frequently used in base- ball writings, the terms “good hitter” or best hitter are rarely defined. In a July 1997 Sports Illustrated article, Tom Verducci called Tony Gwynn “the best hitter since Ted Williams” while considering only batting average.

  • Base Ball’ in Kalamazoo (Before 1890)
    All About Kalamazoo History – Kalamazoo Public Library ‘Base Ball’ in Kalamazoo (Before 1890) “Hip, Hip... Huzzah!” If you’re under the impression that Kalamazoo has only recently become involved in the sport of professional and semi-professional baseball, think again. Our community’s love affair with America’s favorite pastime dates back to the days before the Civil War when the town itself was little more than a frontier village, and the passion of local fans has seldom wavered since. America’s Game The game of Base Ball (then two words) originated in the 1840s, and was (and still is) a uniquely American sport. In its infancy, baseball was very much a gentleman’s game, where runs were called “tallies,” outs were “kills,” and the batter (“striker”) had the right to say how the ball (then tossed underhand) should be pitched. According to author and MLB historian John Thorn, “It was thought unmanly to not catch with bare hands,” so no gloves were worn, and if a ball was Kalamazoo Telegraph, 2 October 1867 hit into the grandstand, it was to be thrown back onto the playing field. Umpires (then “referees”) enforced strict rules of conduct, and players (“base ballists”) could be fined for such ungentlemanly conduct as swearing, spitting, disputing a referee’s decision, or failing to tip one’s hat to a feminine spectator. Admission prices were inflated to keep out the “undesirables,” and the use of alcohol and tobacco was strictly prohibited. The “New Game” Comes to Kalamazoo Legend has it that the sport of baseball as we know it was first introduced in Kalamazoo during the late 1850s by one John McCord, who, after seeing the game played while attending school in New York, was finally able to persuade his friends back home in Kalamazoo to try it.
