  • The Personal Collection of Thurman Munson
    The Personal Collection of Thurman Munson ne of the most rewarding aspects of this profession has been the opportunity to meet many individuals within the baseball community throughout the years. I can easily state that my initial visit to Canton, Ohio to meet with Diana O Munson was one of my more memorable, yet simple excursions. Viewing Thurman Munson’s collection within his very office is a privilege that I will recall many times in the future. The awards, significant baseballs, bats, photos, and various paper materials all provided some sort of tangible validation for the player that we all remember. By any standard, and for any era within the game, Thurman Munson’s accomplishments on the field are significant. Born on June 6th, 1947 in Akron, Ohio, Munson was a multi-sport star in high school. He attended Kent State University on a baseball scholarship and was an All-American catcher. Thurman’s pro career began with brief stints with the Binghamton Triplets in the Eastern League, and the Syracuse Chiefs, prior to being called up by the Yankees during the '69 season. Munson played so well during the remainder of the '69 season that he won the job of Yankees starting catcher in spring training of 1970. After batting .302 with 7 home runs, 57 RBIs, and 80 assists, he was named the American League Rookie of the Year. From the start, Munson’s leadership by example was apparent. His demeanor and hard-nosed style of play earned him instant respect, and ultimately, the position of team captain.

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF JOURNALISM Extra Innings: Examining the Pace of Play Problem with America’s Pastime DAVID M. BAUER JR. SPRING 2021 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Journalism with honors in Journalism Reviewed and approved* by the following: John Affleck Knight Chair in Sports Journalism and Society Thesis Supervisor Russell Frank Associate Professor, Department of Journalism Honors Adviser * Electronic approvals are on file. i ABSTRACT This thesis examines the slowdown and changes in action regarding pace of play that has occurred in Major League Baseball over the past 100 years. It demonstrates the correlation between the problematic decline in baseball viewership and the pace of play slowdown and examines hypotheses for why this slowdown may be occurring, including advances in mid-game advertising and commercialization, a shift in focus toward offense, the advent of sabermetrics and other advanced stat-keeping implemented by teams to better their odds of victory, and changes in player behavior in the time between pitches. Ultimately, this thesis concludes that behavioral changes, brought on by both advanced analytics and monetary incentive, are the primary explanation for the lengthening of the average baseball game over time and the shift toward inaction-based plays. It also identifies possible solutions that Major League Baseball could implement to help solve its pace of play problem, including the implementation of a pitch clock, encouraging action-based plays like stolen bases, and, ultimately, amending the state of distrust between the league and the Players Association. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES ...................................................................................................
