Eberle Edward Dundon (1859–1893) played baseball in 1883 and 1884 for the Columbus Buckeyes of the American Association, a major league at the time. William Hoy (1862– 1961) was a major league outfielder from 1888 through 1902 for teams in the National League, Players League, American Association, and American League. Luther Taylor (1875–1958) pitched in the major leagues for the New York Giants (now the San Francisco Giants) from 1900 through 1908, and he played briefly for the Cleveland Bronchos (now the Cleveland Indians) in 1902. Monroe Ingram (1865?–1944) was a black ballplayer, so he was limited to pitching for an integrated minor league team in Emporia, Kansas in 1896 and 1897. In addition to having professional baseball careers in common, all four men were deaf.

  • History Lori Craig's Work, "Historical Professional Deaf Players in the Major Leagues
    1 2. Lori Craig (Prof. Rebecca Edwards) History Lori Craig's work, "Historical Professional Deaf Players in the Major Leagues of Baseball," was submitted for credit in one class "Deaf History," but really grows out of two classes we shared together, "Deaf History" and the "History of Baseball." She brings the best of both classes together in her research on early twentieth century Deafballplayers, most notably William Hoy and Luther Taylor. It is easy to see how work in both classes informed her research. She knows how to assess their on-field performance, yes, but she also shows us why we should still remember and honor today men whose playing careers ended before 1910. She explains that the fact that the two men signed in a time when sign language was discouraged and even attacked in American culture makes the careers of these players significant. Due to her time as student in "Deaf History," she understands the need to emphasize that their lack of speech and their preference for sign was a culturally significant event in the world of baseball in the turn of the century. The fact that these men brought sign language with them to their respective teams was pathbreaking in the oralist years of the early twentieth century and Lori explains why so effectively in her work. She knows to pay equal attention to their Deafness and their baseball skills, again bringing two classes together in one research paper. It was an honor and a pleasure to have her in a variety of classes this entire academic year.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

Eberle Beginning in 1865 with the Frontier Base Ball Club (BBC) in Leavenworth, teams were organized in most Kansas towns at some point during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Clubs composed of businessowners and others who could enjoy leisure activities on workday afternoons soon gave way to town teams, and in some instances, amateur teams gave way to semipro teams.1 Twenty years after the Frontiers participated in the first intercity matches with clubs in Kansas City, the first professional minor league teams represented cities in Kansas when Leavenworth and Topeka became members of the Western League in 1886 (Table 1).
