  • Progressive Team Home Run Leaders of the Washington Nationals, Houston Astros, Los Angeles Angels and New York Yankees
    Academic Forum 30 2012-13 Progressive Team Home Run Leaders of the Washington Nationals, Houston Astros, Los Angeles Angels and New York Yankees Fred Worth, Ph.D. Professor of Mathematics Abstract - In this paper, we will look at which players have been the career home run leaders for the Washington Nationals, Houston Astros, Los Angeles Angels and New York Yankees since the beginning of the organizations. Introduction Seven years ago, I published the progressive team home run leaders for the New York Mets and Chicago White Sox. I did similar research on additional teams and decided to publish four of those this year. I find this topic interesting for a variety of reasons. First, I simply enjoy baseball history. Of the four major sports (baseball, football, basketball and cricket), none has had its history so consistently studied, analyzed and mythologized as baseball. Secondly, I find it amusing to come across names of players that are either a vague memory or players I had never heard of before. The Nationals The Montreal Expos, along with the San Diego Padres, Kansas City Royals and Seattle Pilots debuted in 1969, the year that the major leagues introduced division play. The Pilots lasted a single year before becoming the Milwaukee Brewers. The Royals had a good deal of success, but then George Brett retired. Not much has gone well at Kauffman Stadium since. The Padres have been little noticed except for their horrid brown and mustard uniforms. They make up for it a little with their military tribute camouflage uniforms but otherwise carry on with little notice from anyone outside southern California.

  • African-Americans Players Now Standouts in Baseball for Negative
    African-Americans players now standouts in baseball for negative reason By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Wednesday, May 3rd, 2017 A light should have gone on in Commissioner Rob Manfred’s head as he handled the fallout from the racial slurs and physical attacks on Baltimore Orioles’ Adam Jones on May 1 at Fenway Park. Jones was the sole African-American player on the field for the Orioles at that moment. Second baseman Jona- than Schoop of Curacao was the only other player of col- or for the Orioles, but Jones is his team’s standout star. Once-a-year casual fans with no emotional or historical investment in baseball likely were the guilty parties. No enlightened individual who loves the game, and who has been sated with three Red Sox World Series titles since 2004 is going to give Jones the kind of grief that Jackie Robinson and early black baseball pioneers endured. Idiots spending hundreds of bucks on tickets and beer, among other inflated ballpark expenditures, would be- By his singularity in the out- have like fools let loose at Fenway.

  • Baseball Great Don Baylor Is 2015 Honorary Della
    LIC UB S P in E c R e Fall 2015 1 S 9 Y 0 O 7 B N O R T O H B I A N L G T W I T H O U Baseball Great Don Baylor is 2015 Honorary Della Robbia® Chair n Chino Hills, California: Meaningful wreath production teaches teenagers responsibility and strong work ethic. As Christmas quickly approaches so do the yuletide traditions we enjoy every year. The excitement of opening Christmas presents is best captured by another tradition: Santa’s Workshop. This magical workshop has enticed children for centuries with the promise of presents brought by Santa himself. But before the toys and goodies can arrive, Santa’s elves must build each gift from scratch in the workshop. Their months of merry labor, though, are all but forgotten by children once they unwrap their presents on Christmas day. The Della Robbia wreath program— housed in Boys Republic’s own workshop—serves a different purpose. Weath production first and foremost teaches teenagers the value of honest labor. The Della Robbia program has provided disadvantaged students with critical work experience since 1923. Teens every year since have fashioned evergreen rings with thick cone clusters, fresh apples and lemons and shipped them to people nationwide and abroad. And while wreath customers anticipate opening each fragrant wreath that hails the holidays, they know that they’ve supported crucial vocational training for neglected students. (Please turn to page 2) pod barn is actually divided into organized work stations. Teens perched on stools sort boxes of pods and cones for drilling, while wooden booths hold lemons and apples for students and seasonal workers to fasten onto greenery.

  • Texas Sports Hall of Fame
    Texas Sports Hall of Fame The Texas Sports Hall of Fame was organized in 1951 by the Texas Sports Writers Association. Each year the honorees are inducted into the Hall of Fame at a gala dinner. (The second such fete in 1952 was headlined by, “That filmland athlete, Ronald Reagan, and his actress wife, Nancy Davis,” The Dallas Morning News, June 9, 1952.) The hall was originally in Grand Prairie in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. The Hall of Fame was closed in 1986 for financial reasons, but in 1991 it was reopened in Waco. In addition to memorabilia, the new location also houses archives. Under the current selection process, dues-paying members of the Texas Sports Hall of Fame can nominate any number of individuals. (Anyone can become a member.) The selection committee, chaired by Dave Campbell, founder of Texas Football Magazine, reviews all nominees and creates the “Official Voting Membership” ballot. Ballots are then mailed to the voting membership, former Texas Sports Hall of Fame inductees and the media selection committee. The results of the balloting are announced in the fall with the induction banquet following in the winter. The hall of fame website is at www.tshof.org.
