They played two pre season games conditions, the proposal is against the Birmingham Barons at the Fairgrounds. Orlando was a baseball-starved town and its consistent with the requirements citizens liked what they saw. In June of the same year, Bert Humphries, formerly with the Chicago for approval contained in Cubs, organized the Orlando Baseball Club. When he left in 1920, the club hired Joe Tinker to be Sections 62.201 and 62.706 of their new Manager. It was not long before Tinker, also a former Chicago Cub, had the city thinking the Land Development Code about major league baseball. In March of 1921 Tinker’s team played in two exhibition games at the (LDC): fairgrounds against a group of major league players organized by his friend, Clark Griffith. Inspired by the demonstration, the city decided to build a new field. 1. All changes to this proposal shall be reviewed and The original field and buildings at Tinker Field were begun in December of 1922. The ballpark was approved by HPB Minor dedicated as “Tinker field” on April 19, 1923 and is emblematic of the rise of professional baseball Review Committee prior to in the state of Florida and Orlando. The original field and stands, which cost $50,000.00, were lo- permitting. cated to the south of Lake Lorna Doone. The ballpark was said to be larger than the New York Yan- kees Field with a distance from home plate to the right field fence being 278 feet and to left field 2. Final material selection and over 310 feet. paint and concrete stain Sometime in the early 1930’s, alterations and additions were made to the buildings. The WPA ap- colors will require additional propriated money for the construction of a football stadium to the east of Tinker Field in 1940 which review by the Minor Review formed the beginning of what is now known as the Camping World Stadium. In 1960 the baseball Committee. stands got a $4500 facelift in preparation for the winter training season of the Washington Sena- tors. A new grandstand was designed in 1962 and opened on March 27, 1963. One of the largest baseball crowds in the history of the field came to see the opening game between the Minnesota Twins and the New York Yankees. The new grandstands were designed by Reynolds, Smith and Hills, Architects and Engineers and cost $310,000 with $67,000 spent on lighting. The grandstand was a V-shaped steel beam and truss grandstand that wrapped around the home plate and the right and left lines. The design was typical of vernacular style grandstands built after World War II. The 1962 drawings by Reynolds, Smith and Hills, Architects and Engineers show one area as “existing press box” which appears to remain in a somewhat altered state. According to the National Register nomination form, 909 of the grandstand seats came from Griffith Stadium in Washington, D.C. Griffith Stadium was built in 1911 after a fire destroyed an earlier stadium and the last game was played in 1961 and the stadium demolished in 1965. The historic wood slatted seats were located on the upper levels of the covered portion of the Tinker Field grandstands where they were more protected from the elements. The remainder of the seats used a similar iron, folding frame but the seat slats were made of gold anodized aluminum which would be typical for the early 1960’s. It is unclear whether all the frames are from Griffith Stadium or the iron frame was still available in 1963. This new grandstand had additional concrete block buildings on the west and south sides that served as ticket booths and concession areas. Page 3 Case Number HPB2016-00250 November 2, 2016 P ROJECT O VERVIEW AND D ESCRIPTION Tinker field was renovated again in 1990 at a cost of $1.7 million. The earlier concrete block ticket and concessions buildings were demol- ished and this renovation added the metal roofed, concrete block entry buildings, ticket offices, restrooms and concession stands that sur- rounded the west and south side of the 1963 grandstand and created an interior court. Comparing the original 1962 construction draw- ings and the 1990 construction drawings, it appears that few changes other than a replacement metal roof and wall panels, paint and addi- tional minor modifications were made to the 1963 grandstands. National Register of Historic Places Listing Tinker Field was placed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) on May 14, 2004. The successful nomination was based on the playing fields association with baseball which met criterion ‘a’ of the National Park Service NRHP criteria for designation in the area of En- tertainment/Recreation. Additionally, the field was associated with Joe Tinker which met criterion ‘b’ as well. Only the playing field was included in the NRHP nomination as contributing and the 1963 and 1990 structures were considered non-contributing resources and were included in the boundaries of the nomination because they create the appropriate setting for the ballpark. At the time of the 2004 nomina- tion the 1963 grandstand was not yet 50 years of age. The 12 non-contributing resources surrounding the historic field in the National Register nomination were: concessions buildings (1990), Grandstand (1963), Old Press Box, Dugouts, Metal Bleachers, Practice Pitching Mound, Batting Cages, Wooden Bleachers, Warning Track, Wall and the Clark Griffith Memorial (1968). Orlando Historic Landmark The Historic Preservation Board reviewed the Landmark Designation request at the April 2, 2014 meeting and recommended that the field and 1963 grandstand be landmarked as contributing structures and the remainder (similar to the NRHP listing) be considered non- contributing. City Council designated Tinker Field (playing field only) as an Orlando Local Landmark on March 23, 2015. All the other struc- tures on site have been demolished except for the historic playing field. Elements including historic seats, monument, and the entry gates have been retained awaiting use in the proposed history plaza. The Landmark Ordinance required the City to develop a plan for appropriate commemorations which may include monuments, signs, plaques, or other objects at Tinker Field. It also states that “the City will undertake all reasonable efforts to salvage historic and sentimen- tal objects and features, particularly those that can be used in the historic commemoration plan”. The Ordinance requires that any such display be reviewed by the City’s historic preservation officer and the Historic Preservation Board and issuance of a Certificate of Appropri- ateness for the proposal. A Community Planning Committee was established in 2015 and an online survey and two community meetings were held to gather pubic input and this proposal is the result. Staff met with the Community Planning Committee on several occasions. Additionally, the HPB Design Review Committee met on March 16, 2016 to discuss the proposal and give criticism and advice. This advice has been incorporated into the current design where feasible. The minutes from the DRC meeting are included as appendix C. The proposed plaza will incorporate several elements including a historic timeline, plaques of well known ball players, Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. and Clark Griffith monuments, refurbished stadium seats (originally from the Senators Stadium in Washington DC), a gate- way entrance using the salvaged entry gates, covered pavilions, vintage style lighting and a State of Florida Historical Marker. The application includes the research and documented sources compiled by Ted Haddock and is included as appendices A and B.

  • The Decline and Fall of the Pirates Family
    Chapter One The Decline and Fall of the Pirates Family The 1980–1985 Seasons ♦◊♦ As over forty-four thousand Pirates fans headed to Three Rivers Sta- dium for the home opener of the 1980 season, they had every reason to feel optimistic about the Pirates and Pittsburgh sports in general. In the 1970s, their Pirates had captured six divisional titles, two National League pennants, and two World Series championships. Their Steelers, after decades of futility, had won four Super Bowls in the 1970s, while the University of Pittsburgh Panthers led by Heisman Trophy winner Tony Dorsett added to the excitement by winning a collegiate national championship in football. There was no reason for Pittsburgh sports fans to doubt that the 1980s would bring even more titles to the City of Champions. After the “We Are Family” Pirates, led by Willie Stargell, won the 1979 World Series, the ballclub’s goals for 1980 were “Two in a Row and Two Million Fans.”1 If the Pirates repeated as World Series champions, it would mark the first time that a Pirates team had accomplished that feat in franchise history. If two million fans came out to Three Rivers Stadium to see the Pirates win back-to-back World Series titles, it would 3 © 2017 University of Pittsburgh Press.

  • Fair Ball! Why Adjustments Are Needed
    © Copyright, Princeton University Press. No part of this book may be distributed, posted, or reproduced in any form by digital or mechanical means without prior written permission of the publisher. CHAPTER 1 Fair Ball! Why Adjustments Are Needed King Arthur’s quest for it in the Middle Ages became a large part of his legend. Monty Python and Indiana Jones launched their searches in popular 1974 and 1989 movies. The mythic quest for the Holy Grail, the name given in Western tradition to the chal- ice used by Jesus Christ at his Passover meal the night before his death, is now often a metaphor for a quintessential search. In the illustrious history of baseball, the “holy grail” is a ranking of each player’s overall value on the baseball diamond. Because player skills are multifaceted, it is not clear that such a ranking is possible. In comparing two players, you see that one hits home runs much better, whereas the other gets on base more often, is faster on the base paths, and is a better fielder. So which player should rank higher? In Baseball’s All-Time Best Hitters, I identified which players were best at getting a hit in a given at-bat, calling them the best hitters. Many reviewers either disapproved of or failed to note my definition of “best hitter.” Although frequently used in base- ball writings, the terms “good hitter” or best hitter are rarely defined. In a July 1997 Sports Illustrated article, Tom Verducci called Tony Gwynn “the best hitter since Ted Williams” while considering only batting average.

  • 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.

  • Washington, Dc and the Mlb All-Star Game
    TEAM UP FEBRUARY TOUCH BASE 2021 WASHINGTON, DC AND THE MLB ALL-STAR GAME The Major League Baseball All-Star Game is also known as the “Midsummer Classic.” The game features the best players in the National League (NL) playing against the best players in the American League (AL). Fans choose the starting lineups; and a combination of players, coaches, and managers choose the rest of the players on the All-Star rosters. The game is played every year, usually on the second or third Tuesday in July. The very first All-Star Game was on July 6, 1933, at the home of the Chicago White Sox. Only two times since then has the game not been played — in 1945 due to World War II travel restrictions, and 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic. Nationals Park and Washington, DC were at the center of the baseball universe in July 2018, serving as host of the 89th Major League Baseball All-Star Game. Remember all those festivities? This may come as a surprise, but that was actually the fifth time the All-Star Game was played in DC. Here is a little bit about each of the All-Star Games played in the Nation’s Capital. JULY 7, 1937 The 1937 Midsummer Classic, which was the fifth Major League Baseball All-Star Game, was played on July 7, at Griffith Stadium. President Franklin D. Roosevelt was in attendance, making this the first All-Star Game to be played in front of a current President. The American League won the game 8-3, improving to 4 wins and 1 loss in the five games.
