He concluded that, “What is actu- ally being invaded here is America and its hold on its theoretical na- tional pastime. We’re not sure exactly when this happened—possi- bly while you were busy watching a Yankees-Red Sox game—but this isn’t just America’s sport anymore. It is Latin America’s sport.” While it may not have gone that far yet, the presence of Latino players in baseball, especially in Major League Baseball, has grown enormously. In 1990, the Racial and Gender Report Card recorded that 13 percent of MLB players were Latino. In the 2009 MLB Racial and Gender Report Card, 27 percent of the players were La- tino. The all-time high was 29.4 percent in 2006. Teams from South America, Mexico, and the Caribbean enter the World Baseball Classic with superstar MLB players on their ros- ters. Stark wrote, “The term, ‘baseball game,’ won’t be adequate to describe it. These games will be practically a cultural symposium— where we provide the greatest Latino players of our time a monstrous stage to demonstrate what baseball means to them, versus what baseball now means to us.” American youth have an array of sports to play besides base- ball, including soccer, basketball, football, and hockey.

  • Former Twins Playeq Manager and Broadcaster Frank Quilici Dies
    Former Twins playeq manager and broadcaster Frank Quilici dies By Brian Murphy I [email protected] I Pioneer Press- May 14, 2018 Frank Quilici, the second baseman who played five seasons for the Twins in the 1950s and later served as coach, manager and broadcaster for the organization, died Monday after a lengthy illness, the team announced. He was 79 and lived in Burnsville. Quilici spent his entire baseball career with Minnesota after being signed as an amateur free agent in 1961. He made his big-league debut in 1965 and was part of the Twins' American League championship team that lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers in a seven-game World Series. "The Minnesota Twins today mourn the passing of Frank Quilici," the club said in a statement released during the Twins-Mariners game. "Frank not only exemplified professionalism as a player, coach, manager and broadcaster for the Twins, he also served as a community leader in the Twin Cities working to make sure youth had recreational opportunities and contributed to many other charitable causes. "The club, like many of his friends throughout the game, is thinking of the Quilici family during this difficult time." Quilici played 405 games for the Twins over five seasons (1965, 1967-7A1. He was then hired by the Twins as a coach under manager Bill Rigney in 1971and before taking over managerial duties for the final 84 games of the 1972 season. He went 280-287 in parts of four seasons as Twins manager and joined the WCCO radio broadcast crew as an analyst working alongside Herb Carnealfrom 1976-77 and 1980-82.

The new partnership will bring some of the most exciting prospects in the game to Blue Wahoos Stadium alongside the storied legacy of Twins baseball. Twins history began in 1961 when Washington Senators president Calvin Griffith made the historic decision to move his family’s team to the Midwest, settling on the Minneapolis/St. Paul area in Minnesota. The new team was named after the state’s famous Twin Cities and began their inaugual season with a talented roster featuring Harmon Killebrew, Bob Allison, Camilo Pascual, and Jim Lemon. Homegrown talents Jim Kaat, Zoilo Versalles, Jimmie Hall, and Tony Oliva combined with the Twins already potent nucleus to make the team a force to be reckoned with in the 1960s.
