  • An Analysis of the American Outdoor Sport Facility: Developing an Ideal Type on the Evolution of Professional Baseball and Football Structures
    AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN OUTDOOR SPORT FACILITY: DEVELOPING AN IDEAL TYPE ON THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL STRUCTURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad S. Seifried, B.S., M.Ed. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Donna Pastore, Advisor Professor Melvin Adelman _________________________________ Professor Janet Fink Advisor College of Education Copyright by Chad Seifried 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical layout of the American baseball and football professional sport facility from 1850 to present and design an ideal-type appropriate for its evolution. Specifically, this study attempts to establish a logical expansion and adaptation of Bale’s Four-Stage Ideal-type on the Evolution of the Modern English Soccer Stadium appropriate for the history of professional baseball and football and that predicts future changes in American sport facilities. In essence, it is the author’s intention to provide a more coherent and comprehensive account of the evolving professional baseball and football sport facility and where it appears to be headed. This investigation concludes eight stages exist concerning the evolution of the professional baseball and football sport facility. Stages one through four primarily appeared before the beginning of the 20th century and existed as temporary structures which were small and cheaply built. Stages five and six materialize as the first permanent professional baseball and football facilities. Stage seven surfaces as a multi-purpose facility which attempted to accommodate both professional football and baseball equally.

  • Sju's Diamond Sport J a M I E M O Y
    SJU’S DIAMOND SPORT Baseball is the oldest sport at Saint Joseph's, as the first account of any athletic contest by the institution against an outside opponent is of an 1894 game against Roman Catholic High. That game, played in Philadelphia's Fairmount Park, ended in a 25-25 tie. When official varsity sports were begun at the College in the 1909-10 academic year, baseball was joined by basketball and football as the first offer- ings. The athletes from that year were the first to be awarded varsity letters at the school. Shortly thereafter, on April 10, 1912, came the most famous game of the early era of Saint Joseph's baseball. On that day, Saint Joseph's took on the defending world champion Philadelphia Athletics in an exhibition game at Shibe Park just prior to the opening of the A's regular season. Despite facing a star-studded lineup of professionals, including future Hall of Famer Eddie Collins, the collegians prevailed, 8-7. The early years of Saint Joseph’s baseball also produced the program’s first-ever major leaguer. Frank (Fritz) Henrich, an outfielder for SJU from 1916-19, played one season with the Philadelphia Phillies in 1924. The modern era of Hawk baseball began in 1946, when the sport was The 1912 Hawks defeated the World Champion Philadelphia A’s in an exhibi- revived after a 15-year absence on Hawk Hill.

Forty-six years at an institution leads to such character- izations. Joe joined the SMU law faculty in 1955, when I was seven years old, and he has been here ever since, contributing mightily to the legal education of most living SMU law graduates. I personally have had the good fortune to be Joe's colleague and friend for the last 21, years but I have to say that I have always been in awe of Joe because of his accomplishments and stature in both the academic and practicing legal communities. This was particularly so when I was named the law school's dean and was thus to administer to a faculty which included the likes of Joe McKnight, Alan Bromberg and Bill Dorsaneo.
