  • Forgotten Washington Senators of the 1950S ©Diamondsinthedusk.Com
    Forgotten Washington Senators of the 1950s ©DiamondsintheDusk.com “Washington: First in war, first in peace, and still last in the American League.” Baseball Hall of Fame sports writer Charley Dryden (right) coins the above utterance during the 1904 season, when the Washington Senators finished 38-113 and a distant 55 1/2 games behind the American League pennant-winning Boston Americans. For its first 11 years of existence, the luckless franchise in the nation’s capital does its best to live up (or down) to Dryden’s cynicism by finishing last, or second to last, in all but two of those 11 years. Even Washington’s entry into the ill-fated United States Baseball League in 1912, finishes in fifth place with a 6-7 record before the league ceases opera- tion in June. Forty years later, Washington’s “Boys of Summer” once again do themselves proud. From 1950 to 1959, the Senators finish as high as fifth only three times and seventh or eighth (in an eight-team league) six times, while going through three managers. Where in my previous “Forgotten” article, Pittsburgh’s 1960 World Championship team clearly had its genesis from some of the bad Corsair teams of the 1950s, Minnesota’s American League championship team in 1965, does not derive itself from the previous Forgotten Senators of the 1950s decade. Only five players (albeit five good players) - Bob Allison, Jim Kaat, Harmon Killebrew, Camilo Pas- Bob Usher, 1957 cual and Zoilo Versalles - played for the original Senators’ franchise. In regards to the Forgotten Sena- Jesse Levan, 1954-55 Carlos Paula, 1954-56 tors’ first team, I selected one player for each of the eight field positions José Valdivielso, Roy Dietzel, 1954 and a eight-man pitching staff.

    Sox historian’s view: ‘Billy the Kid’ a sure Hall of Famer Editor’s Note: This year’s Baseball Hall of Fame Golden Era Veterans’ Commit- tee votes on Sunday, Dec. 7, in San Diego to elect up to four new members of the National Baseball Hall of Fame. The results of the vote will be an- nounced on Dec. 8. The Chicago Base- ball Museum will be in San Diego cover- ing this historic vote. This year the White Sox have five for- mer players on the 10-person ballot (Minnie Minoso, Billy Pierce, Jim Kaat, Dick Allen, and Ken Boyer) — the most of any big-league franchise. CBM will be advocating for the Sox can- didates. Before the vote, the CBM will feature stories on several of these play- ers. The first entry features Billy Pierce, who has not been on a Hall of Fame bal- lot since dropping off that of the Base- ball Writers Association of America’s main vote in 1974. Former ace lefty Pierce was considered by the Historical Overview Committee for inclusion on Billy Pierce shows off his pitching form in Yankee Veteran’s Committee ballots in 2003, Stadium, site of many of his duels with Whitey Ford.

He peaked in 1971 with a mere seven votes. Pierce never made any Veterans Committee-type ballot before 2014.
