Joe Di Maggio's Mighty Swing

His father, Giuseppe, was a fisherman and expected the same of his five sons. Often called “lazy” and “good for nothing”, Joe Di Maggio proved his father wrong, first playing for the San Francisco Seals on October 1, 1932, rising out of poverty, and going on to become a three time MVP winner and thirteen time All-Star for the New York Yankees. Joltin’ Joe hit safely in 56 consecutive games in the 1941 season, a record still unmatched. Joe Di Maggio’s mighty swing was curtailed along with his American dream on October 14, 1998 by tobacco when he died following surgery for lung cancer.

The Man Baseball Forgot Plays the Hand He's Dealt
The Library of America • Story of the Week From The Great American Sports Page: A Century of Classic Columns (Library of America, 2019), pages 307–15. Originally published in The Washington Post (May 9, 1983). Headnote by John Schulian. JANE LEAVY Jane Leavy (b. 1951) couldn’t settle on a career until her mother forced the issue. “I want to be a sportswriter,” Leavy blurted, surprising them both. After writing her master’s thesis on Red Smith, she found her way to The Washington Post in 1979 and had a distinguished nine-year run in which she survived anti-Semitic football coaches and athletes with advanced cases of arrested development. Leavy has since scored big in the book world with her comic novel Squeeze Play and her best-selling biography Sandy Koufax: A Lefty’s Legacy. Another of her bestsellers, The Last Boy, may have had its genesis in her unsentimental but com- passionate 1983 Post profile of Mickey Mantle in retirement. At the very least, interviewing him led to a career-changing discovery: Her gender could be more of a help than a hindrance. “I think there were some things,” she said, “that none of these guys would tell men.” HHH The Man Baseball Forgot Plays the Hand He’s Dealt TLANTIC CITY—Mickey Mantle has these recurring dreams. He’s A gliding down the runway with a vaulter’s pole in his hands. And it’s strange because he’s never pole-vaulted in his life. Stranger still, his knees don’t hurt and he’s running as fast as he can.

Marshall Fogel Has Amassed a Sports Collection Unrivaled in Condition and Value
IN A LEAGUE OF HIS OWN MARSHALL FOGEL HAS AMASSED A SPORTS COLLECTION UNRIVALED IN CONDITION AND VALUE Interview by Hector Cantu Photographs by Wes Magyar FOR MARSHALL FOGEL, EVERY SPORTS ARTIFACT HAS A STORY. When he talks about Roy Campanella, he pulls out the catcher’s mitt that once belonged to the leg- endary player. It was a gift to a kid at Ebbets Field before the car accident that left the three-time MVP paralyzed. There’s an original photo of Lou Gehrig taken in 1939 when it was announced that the “Iron Horse” would not be playing anymore. “Just looking at Lou’s face tells the story,” Fogel says. “There’s so much emotion evoked by that photo.” Fogel also has bats used by Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle when they were battling for the home run record in 1961. There’s a check, circa 1841, from Alexander Cartwright, credited with inventing the modern game of baseball. There’s a mirror from Joe DiMaggio’s home, and Ty Cobb’s passport. Simply put, his baseball card and memorabilia collection – considered the best private baseball col- lection in existence – spans a comprehensive history of the national pastime and its impact on American culture. 42 HERITAGE MAGAZINe — WINTER 2009-10 Although he began in 1989, Marshall Fogel today is considered one of the hobby’s top collectors. HERITAGE MAGAZINe — WINTER 2009-10 43 Fogel owns more than 200 game-used bats from legends such as Honus Wagner, Joe DiMaggio, Ty Cobb, Mickey Mantle, Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth. “It’s the most complete game-used Hall of Fame collection,” Fogel says.

At a Distance – Wednesday May 13, 2020 Perfect Last Night Was an Interesting One for Me
At A Distance – Wednesday May 13, 2020 Perfect Last night was an interesting one for me. I saw “perfection” twice in the same night! Perfection did not come in a mystical vision or a dream or in some Spirit Messenger or Shape Shifter. No, one vision of “perfection” came disguised as a grainy old television broadcast from 1956. It was Game 5 of the 1956 World Series between the New York Yankees and the Brooklyn Dodgers. It was Don Larsen’s Perfect Game. As a hard-core baseball fan, this one was a “must watch” for me, even if it did start at midnight and conclude at 3:00AM. We don’t see perfection much in this world, or at least we don’t think we do. And I did not want to miss out on this opportunity. A “perfect game” in baseball is extremely rare. A “perfect game” during the World Series is practically unheard of. What makes it “perfect” is that no player reaches first base during the whole game…not on a hit, not on a walk, balk or hit batter. Nothing! 27 batters appear at the plate, and 27 batters are “out” and take their seats back on the bench. This piece of mid-century perfection was magical. To see the likes of Hall of Fame players like Yogi Berra, Mickey Mantle, Hank Bauer, Billy Martin, Pee Wee Reese, Duke Snider, Roy Campanella and Jackey Robinson all in the same place ( Yankee Stadium) at the same time ( October 1956) was indeed perfection in and of itself, along with the extra drama and spectacular performance of pitcher Don Larsen.

NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture a Nd Traditions
NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture a nd Traditions By Ned Hémard Golden Brown Of the more than 18,000 players who have played Major League baseball, one player‟s multi-faceted career has no parallel. Often referred to as “Golden Boy” during his baseball career, Robert William “Bobby” Brown (born October 25, 1924) played 548 regular-season games for the New York Yankees alongside some of the game‟s greatest legends: Joe DiMaggio, Yogi Berra and Mickey Mantle. He did all this while also pursuing his medical degree at Tulane University in New Orleans. The 91-year-old former star third baseman and cardiologist (with a lifetime batting average of .279 with 22 home runs) served as interim president of the Texas Rangers and president of Professional Baseball‟s American League from 1984 to 1994. During his eight-year career with the Yankees (1946-1952, 1954), he appeared in four World Series (1947, 1949, 1950 and 1951) for New York, batting .439 in 17 games (a record for batters with more than 20 at-bats). Baseball card images of “Golden Boy” Bobby Brown Brown, who threw right-handed and batted left-handed, gained a reputation for being a “clutch hitter.” In baseball parlance, that‟s a player with a knack for coming up with the “big” hit. For those readers unversed in baseball statistics, a player‟s batting average is the batter‟s performance expressed as a ratio of his safe hits per official times at bat (or, more simply expressed, the number of hits divided by the number of times at bat).
