  • National @ Pastime
    Baseball intrigues its followers on many different levels. Its statistics TN=======-,P II lend themselves to endless interpre­ tations and speculations, spawning SABRmetrics, the Baseball Research Journal and numerous offspring. In this journal we examine not the statistics but the lives and careers of players and teams of the past and them game and times in which they performed. In an uncertain and changing world, there is comfort in the timeless patterns of baseball. When a team like the Hitless Wonders can upset an apparently invincible squad like the 1906 Cubs, underdogs can forever take heart. And with the right formula and attitude, surprise teams like the 1894 Orioles and 1961 Reds can leap from the second division to the pennant. Whole com­ munities can come together in support of the local ball­ club in times of need, as happened in Amsterdam, N.Y., in 1942, but the pressures of the pennant race can also cause some performers to do strange things, like Flint ==~~===~=====THE -============== Rhem's allegations of kidnapping in 1930. Promising National @ Pastime youngsters like Christy Mathewson and Rube Waddell A REVIEW OF BASEBALL HISTORY often struggle before emerging as stars, while proven performers like Hack Miller may find their careers The '6.1 Reds Oral History Project 2 derailed by changing managerial strategy.

    Festus Higgins, “Minooka Blues” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com In 1909, Festus Higgins begins a 16-year odyssey into organized baseball as a member of the famous Minooka Blues, a Catholic Tem- perance League club in Scranton, Pennsylvania ... a talented right- handed pitcher noted for a “splendid curve ball, terrific speed and the best of control”, Higgins will pitch in 10 minor league seasons, spanning from 1911 to 1923. Born in 1893 in Minooka, a southern suburb of Scranton, Festus will enjoy his best seasons with Binghamton Bin- goes of the International (AA) League in 1918 (15-4; 1.89) and 1919 (16-9; 2.87). Ending his career following an 0-3 mark with three different teams in 1923, the 31-year-old Higgins dies at 4:00 a.m., on October 3, 1924, in his hometown of Minooka. Higgins’ early death is attributed to lingering effects from an accident six- teen years earlier when he was struck on the side of the head by a pitched ball ... following the beaning, Higgins Festus Higgins undergoes two operations in hopes of Minooka Blues relieving pressure on his brain ... some reports have Higgins being uncon- scious for twenty days following the incident ... unfortunately, he never fully recovers from the injury and his baseball career will suffer from the reoccurring “weak spells” over the coming years.
