  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} the Gashouse Gang by John Heidenry Verdun2's Blog
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Gashouse Gang by John Heidenry Verdun2's Blog. Well, I’m back from high school graduation. She made it through. We made it there and back. Along the way I picked up a book to read in down time. It’s called “The Gashouse Gang”, it’s by John Heidenry, and here’s a quick review of it. The book is a look at the 1934 St. Louis Cardinals, who won the World Series that year with one of the more colorful teams ever. The book concentrates more on the players than on the games. It centers around Dizzy Dean (naturally) and occasionally you forget that there were other players on the team. Heidenry sees Dean as intelligent and manipulative, a classic con man who can pitch. There are a dozen or so episodes in the book centering on Dean that make him come alive as a person. There are also sketches of general manager Branch Rickey, of manager Frankie Frisch, and of a handful of the players. The sections are uneven in that the comments on Joe Medwick are more in-depth than the comments on Ernie Orsatti. The same is true of other players. The players Heidenry finds most fascinating (or maybe that he can find the most info on) range over several pages. These include players like Paul Dean (who apparently hated being called “Daffy”), Pepper Martin, Medwick, and Leo Durocher while other players like Rip Collins, Spud Chandler, and the non-Dean pitchers get only passing reference. Jack Rothrock is almost invisible.

The 1934 St. Louis Cardinals were one of the most colorful crews ever to play the National Pastime. Sportswriters delighted in assigning nicknames to the players, based on their real or imagined qualities. What a cast of characters it was! None was more picturesque than Pepper Martin, the “Wild Horse of the Osage,” who ran the bases with reckless abandon, led his team­mates in off­ the­field hi­jinks, and organized a hillbilly band called the Mississippi Mudcats.

  • Page | 1 “He Wasn't a Baseball Player. He Was a Worldwide Celebrity, An
    Cael McClanahan | August 6, 2020 | History Through Cards “He wasn't a baseball player. He was a worldwide celebrity, an international star, the likes of which baseball has never seen since.” - Ernie Harwell on Babe Ruth The 1933 Goudey set is one of the most popular and widely collected card issues to come out of the Great Depression. Its name alone congers up the likes of Jimmie Foxx, Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig and “Dizzy” Dean – It’s the set that turned many kids of the Great Depression into lifelong collectors and is recognized as one of the top 3 sets that defined the 20th Century. One such young collector, Elwood Scharf, would one day go on to become a pioneer in the in the 1960’s and 70’s Hobby and had vivid recollections of the set when he wrote about it in 1970 – “Pennies were a bit scarce in those days and we couldn’t afford to waste them on cards we already had. A single card and a slab of gum sold for a penny. They were packed in a semi-transparent wrapper, and by holding this wrapper tight, we could make out the name of the player on the face of the card. Of course, many stores didn’t go for this nonsense, but we would hang around peering through the glass candy counter, pennies in hand, until the storekeeper would relent and place the box of cards on the countertop. Eager hands would then go through the packs of cards selecting only those that were needed.
