  • Phillies' Victorino Gets Dumped On, Becomes Latest Pour Man's Al Smith by Paul Ladewski Posted on Monday, August
    Phillies’ Victorino gets dumped on, becomes latest pour man’s Al Smith By Paul Ladewski Posted on Monday, August 17th One-time White Sox outfielder Al Smith was a productive hitter for much of his 12 seasons in the major leagues, but the three-time All-Star is best remembered neither for any of his 1,466 career hits nor his Negro League exploits before them. Fifty years after the fact, any mention of Smith immediately stokes memories of Game 2 of the 1959 World Series, when he took perhaps the most famous beer bath in baseball history. As the headline of his New York Times obituary said, “Al Smith, 73, Dies; Was Doused in Series.” Smith passed away in January, 2002, but his name came to light again last Wednesday night, when Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Shane Victorino was doused by an overzealous Cubs fan at Wrigley Field. Compared to what Smith endured, Victorino has no reason to cry in his beer. At least he was able to catch the ball on the warning track in left-center field. On that Friday, Oct. 2, afternoon at Comiskey Park, Smith could only watch helplessly while the ball hit by Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman Charlie Neal landed several feet into the lower deck in left field. Mere fractions of seconds earlier, in his haste to retrieve the ball, a fan named Melvin Piehl inadvertently knocked over a full cup of beer from atop the ledge of the wall. “It hit the bill of my cap and came down the side of my face,” Smith recalled years later.

  • Al Smith Was First and Foremost a Ballplayer Whose Major-League Career Spanned 12 Seasons with Four American League Teams
    Smith was quiet man who made his noise on field By Gary Livacari Al Smith was first and foremost a ballplayer whose major-league career spanned 12 seasons with four American League teams. Primarily an outfielder, he played six positions as a major leaguer and was a fine defender with a strong arm and good speed. Smith finished with a .272 life-time batting average, hit 164 home runs, and reached base nearly 36 percent of the time. He also made two A.L. All- Star teams and played for two pennant winners (both managed by Al Lopez). He hit a career-best .315 in 1960 and posted his biggest power numbers—28 homers and 93 RBIs—in 1961. But despite his considerable on-field accomplishments, he will always be best remembered as the unwitting subject in one of baseball‘s most lasting images: the “beer bath” photo from Game Two of the 1959 World Series. When Smith died in 2002, his obituary in the New York Times was headlined, “Al Smith, 73, Dies; Was Doused in Series.” Alphonse Eugene Smith was born on February 7, 1928, in Kirkwood, Missouri, a St. Louis suburb. He grew up a fan of both local big-league teams, the Cardinals and the Browns, and his hero was Cardinals outfielder Joe Medwick. Nicknamed “Fuzzy,” Smith was a versatile, multitalented athlete at Douglas High in Webster Groves, Missouri. The MVP of the baseball team, he also starred in football, basketball, and track, and was a Golden Gloves boxing champion in the 160-pound division. Smith scored 33 touchdowns in one football season and was reputed to have scored 10 touchdowns in one game.

  • The Passing of Minnie Minoso and Remembrances by His Sox Teammates
    The Passing of Minnie Minoso and Remembrances by His Sox Teammates By Mark Liptak Posted Monday, March 2, 2015 From the time he arrived to make his White Sox debut on May 1, 1951 until his passing early Sunday morning March 1, 2015, Saturnino Orestes Armas (Arrieta) “Minnie” Minoso loved Chicago, the White Sox and baseball. Minoso, the first Latin player to appear for the White Sox, reportedly was 90 years old although many feel he was actually older when he passed away in his car. Minoso had gone out Saturday night for a friend's birthday party when he appar- ently fell ill and pulled over in the Lakeview neigh- borhood, according to police and family. He was found early Sunday morning unresponsive. Minoso’s story is one of overcoming hardship and prejudice first in Cuba where he was born and raised and then in his day-to-day dealings with life in the 1950’s in America. He changed people’s atti- tudes by always being courteous and showing a smile regardless of the circumstances. Minnie played 17 games with the Indians in 1949 Minoso was one of the original "Go-Go" boys. Photo credit Associated Press. and 1951 when he was acquired by the Sox in a three way deal also involving the Athletics. The deal was driven by Sox G.M. Frank “Trader” Lane upon the recommendation of manager Paul Richards. Richards had first seen Minoso play in San Diego in the Pacific Coast League and immediately pushed for his acquisition. When all was said and done, Phila- delphia sent Lou Brissie to Cleveland; Cleveland sent Sam Zoldak and Ray Murray to Philadelphia; the Athletics sent Paul Lehner to the White Sox, the White Sox sent Gus Zernial and Dave Philley to Philadelphia and the Indians sent Minoso to the South Side of Chicago.

    SIENA RESEARCH INSTITUTE SIENA COLLEGE, LOUDONVILLE, NY www.siena.edu/sri For Immediate Release: Tuesday, March 8, 2005 Contact: Joe Caruso at 518-783-2901 J Siena New York Poll: Death Penalty: NY Split; Favor Life Without Parole Hillary: Run for Senate, Not for President Governor’s Popularity & Support Continue to Slide NYers Like Their Legislators; Split on Senate; 2:1 Unfavorable Toward Assembly Loudonville, NY – By a margin of 46-42 percent, New Yorkers do not want to see the death penalty reinstituted. And by a nearly two-to-one margin (56-29 percent) they favor life without parole over the death penalty for first-degree murderers, according to a new Siena (College) Research Institute poll of New York voters released today. “Nearly half of New York voters are opposed to reinstituting the death penalty and a clear majority (56 percent) support life without parole as the preferred punishment for first-degree murderers,” said Joe Caruso, Director of Polling for the Siena Research Institute (SRI). “Even among death penalty supporters, more than one-quarter (26-61 percent) support life without parole as the most appropriate punishment.” While 58 percent of New Yorkers want to see Hillary Clinton run for re-election to the Senate, only 38 percent believe she should run for President in 2008. Twenty-nine percent of New York voters (50 percent of Republicans) would prefer if she ran for neither office. “Hillary’s popularity continues to run high in New York, with nearly three out of five voters having a favorable opinion of her. One-third of voters say ‘run for re-election next year and President two years later.’ One-quarter of voters want her to run for Senate but not President.

Copyright 1989 by Martha & Bill Reamy Printed in the U.S.A. Published 1989 by FAMILY LINE PUBLICATIONS INTRODUCTION Every effort has been made to achieve accuracy in this project, but interpreting the enumerator's hand-written material has posed problems. As an aid to deciphering many poorly written and misspelled names, the "Wood's Baltimore City Directory, 1861" was consulted. When an entry was found in the Directory where the first name and occupation agreed with the Census listing and the surname appears to be similar, the City Directory spelling was added in brackets in the text and added to the index. The original enumeration at the National Archives was consulted for all proofreading. The enumerator took great liberties in the spelling of surnames. Sometimes when an entry for a household carried over from one page to another the enumerator changed the spelling of the surname. We have retained both spellings in this book. Surnames were occasionally spelled phonetically, e.g. the name written as Knobloch in the Baltimore City Directory appears as Noblock in the census. The user is cautioned to check the index for all possible variations. In some sections it is obvious that the information was transcribed from the original record column by column rather than across the page, line by line, with frequent misalignment of the data on a particular line.

  • Early Memories of Chicago Baseball
    DIVIDED LOYALTIES: EARLY MEMORIES OF CHICAGO BASEBALL Some things are supposed to be unnatural, indefensible, maybe even impossible. But I’m living proof that a person can be a fan of both the Cubs and the White Sox. This is my confession and explanation. Until 1957, when I was eleven, my parents and I lived in Hyde Park. For most of that time, we were within easy walking distance of a great-aunt and uncle who were more like a third set of grandparents. Their home was the East End Park apartment hotel at the corner of 53rd and Hyde Park Blvd.—at the northwest corner, to be precise. That’s important because at the southwest corner was the Del Prado, where visiting teams stayed when they came to Chicago to play the Sox. Naturally, some of us haunted that corner, waiting for the players to come out to board the bus that would take them to Comiskey Park, and hoping that they wouldn’t ignore our plaintive requests for “just one autograph, please!” In the corner of the East End Park, at street level, was O’Connell’s Restaurant, which made decent burgers and served a cheesecake to die for. One family legend has it that some of us were sitting there one day, with me looking out the window and across to the Del Prado, when Ted Williams began to unfold himself from the rear seat of a taxi. As the story goes, I was through the revolving door of the restaurant and half-way across the street, with autograph book in hand, before my hamburger hit my plate.
