  • Umpire Stories
    So, You Want to Be an Umpire? David Vincent Modern umpires like to be invisible on the field and consider it a good day when no one remembers them after a game. There have been days, though, that are memorable ones. Here are some of those days. *** In 1882, National League Umpire Dick Higham, a former player, was expelled from the game for colluding with gamblers. He had been the first umpire to wear a mask on the field. Higham umpired his last game on June 22, 1882 in Buffalo. *** On June 19, 1896, the Chicago Colts (now Cubs) were in Cleveland to play the Spiders. The latter team was well known around the league for acting in a rowdy manner. In the seventh inning, Umpire Tom Lynch fined and ejected Cleveland Captain Patsy Tebeau, who refused to leave. Tebeau instead rushed at Lynch to assault the umpire but the two were separated by other players. Lynch refused to work the rest of that game and left the field. After a long delay, the game resumed with Chicago player Con Daily calling the pitches and Cleveland player Cy Young making the calls on the bases. Tebeau remained in the game and Chicago’s Cap Anson protested the game because Tebeau remained in the contest even though he had been ejected. Chicago won the game, 8-3, so the protest was not lodged. After the game, Lynch told a reporter: “I suppose I should not have permitted my indignation to get the better of me, but after all there are things that pass human endurance, and one of them surely is to be called vile names.” Lynch refused to work in Cleveland after that and did not until 1898.

Hartsdale Ave., #6EE, Hartsdale, NY 10530-3244, 914-472-7954. E-mail: [email protected] Chairman’s Note New Vice-Chair, and More Writers, Needed. Vice Chair Claudia Perry is stepping down. Any Committee member interested in filling the position should get in touch with me at the address above. Preference will be given to those willing to write for the newsletter on a regular basis, particularly about historic matters. As Andy McCue said in reviewing the Committee for the SABR Board: My only complaint is that the committee is too much a creature of the chair. His work is excellent, but touches on only a portion of the issues which this committee could be working on. In addition, if job or other considerations should cause him to cut back on his activities, or have to resign the chairmanship, this committee would flounder. I would like to see him find a way to introduce other projects under the committee umbrella. There are possibilities for cooperation with the 19th Century Committee (salaries and expenses then), Ballparks (the financing of stadiums past and present) and other committees. A project such as tracing the history (and expansion) of front-office functions from the National Association to the present would be very worthwhile. Unfortunately, as all SABR committee chairs learn, the number and quality of projects is in direct relationship to the number, quality and commitment of the volunteers who come forward.
