    [page 1] Muehlebach Field Dedication July 3, 1923 Compliments KANSAS CITY BASEBALL CLUB AMERICAN ASSOCIATION [page 2] Proclamation HEY, red-blooded Americans, Fans, EVERYBODY! A new park, Muehlebach Field, dedicated to the great American sport, Baseball, will open Tuesday, July third, Brooklyn Avenue at 22nd. This event will be of interest to all who enjoy clean, healthful, outdoor recreation. The day has gone by when business men look upon a holiday as a lost opportunity. It is now considered an INVESTMENT, as employer and employe alike return, not only with renewed ambition, but with new thoughts and new ideas for which Old Man Success is always on the lookout. For this reason, I recommend that every employer forget the ever present serious side of life and attend the opening baseball game at Muehlebach Field. I also recommend that every employer as far as possible give the same privilege to his employes. To set the example for this recommendation, and to demonstrate its practicality, I declare Tuesday afternoon, July third, a half holiday for all City Hall Employes, beginning at Twelve o’clock (noon). (Signed) FRANK H. CROMWELL, Mayor. -2- [page 3] Program DEDICATORY ADDRESS THOS. J. HICKEY PRESIDENT AMERICAN ASSOCIATION RESPONSE GEO. E.

Well, al- On the way to one of the most unproductive seasons of his though we have not literally reached career, Earl Torgeson of the Boston Braves certainly didn't that point, we have essentially de- keep his feelings bottled up in 1952. Perhaps his frustrations pleted our remaining pile of began at the Polo Grounds in May, when he was called upon scoresheets.

Smith May 23, the Braves had already scored two runs in the ninth among the more difficult to read in President inning, and were trailing the Giants 5-3 when they sent Earl to our collection. In addition almost all pinch hit. Representing the tying run, Torgeson killed the rally of the remaining games are covered by grounding into a 4-6-3 double play to end the game. How- by only one scoresheet, making them harder to use and ever, it didn't take long for Earl to get a chance to redeem him- increasing the chances of mistakes. We have about self.

    Bunny Brief, “The Polish Puncher” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com 5.19.21 Anthony John Grzeszkowski, aka Bunny Brief, plays parts of four seasons in the major leagues, but the Remus, Michigan, native is best remembered for his hitting exploits achieved over 19 minor league seasons. Brief fashions a .331 career batting average in the minor leagues, with 2,963 hits, includ- ing 594 doubles, 154 triples and 342 home runs. The right-handed power hitter remains the all-time home run leader in American Association history with 256 in 14 seasons. Beginning with a 10-home run season with Traverse City in 1910, Brief will lead his league in home runs eight times - tying Ken Guettler (1945-1959) for the most league titles ever. Twice he will lead all minor leagues in round-trippers. However, his minor league accomplishments never translate into success at the major league level. In 184 games with the St. Louis Browns (1912-1913), Chicago White Sox (1915) and the Pittsburgh Pirates (1917), Brief will hit only .223 with five home runs and, 59 RBIs. The 6-foot, 190-pound outfielder/first baseman begins his professional baseball career in 1910 as a 17-year-old with the Traverse City Resorters of the Michigan State (D) League. In 1911, he hits .351 (good for third in the league) and wins his first home run crown with 10 home runs. In early August, Brief is leading the league in hitting with a .377 average when the St. Louis Cardinals purchase the rights to Traverse City’s slugging outfielder. However, four weeks later its the Cardinals’ cross-town rival Browns that pay the Resorters $300 for the rights to Brief after they draft him in that year’s annual minor league draft.
