  • Forgotten Heroes
    Forgotten Heroes: Sam Hairston by Center for Negro League Baseball Research Dr. Layton Revel Copyright 2020 “Sam Hairston Night” – Colorado Springs (1955) “Sam Hairston Night” at the Colorado Springs Sky Sox Ball Park Sam Receives a New Car (1955) Hairston Family at Colorado Springs Ball Park “Sam Hairston Night” (front row left to right - Johnny, Sam Jr., Wife and Jerry) (1955) Samuel Harding Hairston was born on January 20, 1920 in the small town of Crawford, Lowndes County which is in the eastern part of the state of Mississippi. He was the second of thirteen children (eight boys and five girls) born to Will and Clara Hairston. Will Hairston moved his family from Crawford to the Birmingham area in 1922. The primary reason for the move was to find better work so that he could support his large family. Will became a coal miner and worked alongside Garnett Bankhead who was the father of the five Bankhead brothers who all played in the Negro Leagues. By 1930 Will had gained employment with American Cast Iron and Pipe (ACIPCO) as a laborer in their pipe shop. According to United States census records the Hairston family also lived in North Birmingham and Sayreton. Sam spent his formative years in Hooper City and attended Hooper City High School. Reportedly Sam did not finish high school and when he was 16 he told the employment office at ACIPCO that he was 18 and was given a job working for the company. According to Sam he went to work to help support the family and give his brothers and sisters the opportunity to go to school.

  • Minor League Presidents
    MINOR LEAGUE PRESIDENTS compiled by Tony Baseballs www.minorleaguebaseballs.com This document deals only with professional minor leagues (both independent and those affiliated with Major League Baseball) since the foundation of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues (popularly known as Minor League Baseball, or MiLB) in 1902. Collegiate Summer leagues, semi-pro leagues, and all other non-professional leagues are excluded, but encouraged! The information herein was compiled from several sources including the Encyclopedia of Minor League Baseball (2nd Ed.), Baseball Reference.com, Wikipedia, official league websites (most of which can be found under the umbrella of milb.com), and a great source for defunct leagues, Indy League Graveyard. I have no copyright on anything here, it's all public information, but it's never all been in one place before, in this layout. Copyrights belong to their respective owners, including but not limited to MLB, MiLB, and the independent leagues. The first section will list active leagues. Some have historical predecessors that will be found in the next section. LEAGUE ASSOCIATIONS The modern minor league system traces its roots to the formation of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues (NAPBL) in 1902, an umbrella organization that established league classifications and a salary structure in an agreement with Major League Baseball. The group simplified the name to “Minor League Baseball” in 1999. MINOR LEAGUE BASEBALL Patrick Powers, 1901 – 1909 Michael Sexton, 1910 – 1932

Chicago Cubs vs. Philadelphia Phillies Each of them strike out Bill Gabler in his only three major league at bats during his brief stay with the Chicago Cubs at the end of the 1958 season. Gabler’s Eight Days in September, 1958 September 13 - Gabler is hitting .270 with 23 home runs and 90 RBIs for the Fort Worth Cats when he is named to the Texas League All-Star team. September 14 - After eight years in the minors, Gabler is one of five players from the pennant- winning Cats to have his contract purchased by Bill Gabler the Chicago Cubs ... the National League team 1958 Chicago Cubs purchases the contracts of Gabler and outfielder Chick King, and exercises its options on outfield- ers Bob Will, Frank Ernaga and infielder Jerry Kindall. Two years earlier, Will and Ernaga, both playing for Tulsa, are involved in one of the most unusal plays in Texas League history … in a game against Houston, opposing pitcher Bill Greason hits a fly ball to Ernaga in left field when the ball strikes a bird flying overhead … Ernaga catches the ball before it hits the ground and Will, play- ing centerfield, grabs the plumenting bird ... Houston manager Harry “The Hat” Walker protests that the bird should be considered a “foreign” object and that the ball can’t be legally caught … since no passport or visa papers were found on the bird, the umpires rule that Ernaga’s catch is legal.
