I would also like to thank the other members of my committee, Dr. Timothy Morris and Dr. James Warren, for the assistance they provided at all levels of this undertaking. Their wealth of knowledge in the realm of sport literature was invaluable. To my family: the gratitude I have for what you all have provided me cannot be expressed on this page alone.

Chapter one looks at U.S. media narratives of these Mexican baseball players and their focus on these foreign athletes’ bodies when presenting them the American public, arguing that 1980s U.S.

  • Minor League Presidents
    MINOR LEAGUE PRESIDENTS compiled by Tony Baseballs www.minorleaguebaseballs.com This document deals only with professional minor leagues (both independent and those affiliated with Major League Baseball) since the foundation of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues (popularly known as Minor League Baseball, or MiLB) in 1902. Collegiate Summer leagues, semi-pro leagues, and all other non-professional leagues are excluded, but encouraged! The information herein was compiled from several sources including the Encyclopedia of Minor League Baseball (2nd Ed.), Baseball Reference.com, Wikipedia, official league websites (most of which can be found under the umbrella of milb.com), and a great source for defunct leagues, Indy League Graveyard. I have no copyright on anything here, it's all public information, but it's never all been in one place before, in this layout. Copyrights belong to their respective owners, including but not limited to MLB, MiLB, and the independent leagues. The first section will list active leagues. Some have historical predecessors that will be found in the next section. LEAGUE ASSOCIATIONS The modern minor league system traces its roots to the formation of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues (NAPBL) in 1902, an umbrella organization that established league classifications and a salary structure in an agreement with Major League Baseball. The group simplified the name to “Minor League Baseball” in 1999. MINOR LEAGUE BASEBALL Patrick Powers, 1901 – 1909 Michael Sexton, 1910 – 1932

  • General Admission
    General Admission Professional Baseball in Louisiana by S. Derby Gisclair Member, Society for American Baseball Research Baseball has been played since the 1850’s throughout Louisiana, but it was not until 1887 that the New Orleans Pelicans became the state’s first professional baseball club. New Orleans still hosts a professional baseball team – the Zephyrs of the AAA Pacific Coast League. But New Orleans is not the only city to sponsor professional baseball. In fact, twenty cities throughout Louisiana have hosted professional teams over the years. They played in a total of fourteen different leagues covering the spectrum from independent leagues to Class AAA. In 1895 Shreveport became the state’s second city to promote professional baseball when the Shreveport Grays took the field in the Texas-Southern League. Although they finished in fourth place and disbanded in early August before the season finished, Shreveport would become a major hub of professional baseball and remains so today with the Shreveport Sports of the Class AA American Association. Baton Rouge became the state’s third city to have a professional baseball franchise when the Baton Rouge Cajuns in the Cotton States League finished the 1903 season 53 – 54 (.495) in second place, just 2-1/2 games behind the Natchez Indians. From the six teams that made up the Louisiana State League which operated for a single season in 1920, to the Dixie League which operated between 1933 and 1935, to the better known Cotton States League, the Evangeline League, and the Southern League (later reformed as the Southern Association), cities across Louisiana fielded teams and captured their share of league championships.

  • The Retro Sheet Retro News 9 Official Publication of Retrosheet, Inc
    June 2, 1999 Inside: Volume 6, Number 2 Game Acquisitions 2 Nominations Sought 3 Strange Plays 5 The Retro Sheet Retro News 9 Official Publication of Retrosheet, Inc. There are two topics for this column: game logs and data release policy. The game log story is really just an up- date from last time. Since then Tom Ruane has done a lot of work getting the logs organized. He has had help from Mark Armour who is filling in some of the gaps, especially umpires. In addition David Vincent has written a program that will make access to these logs easy and logical. All that is left is to get the logs posted on the web site, which we hope will be accomplished very soon, perhaps even before you read this notice. The Retrosheet Board of Directors explicitly gave permission to the President of the organiza- tion to decide when a given data file was ready to release. Up to this point, I have been very conservative and we have only released files that had undergone exhaustive proofing. For ex- ample, totals generated from our play by play files agree to the greatest extent possible with the official totals in all batting and pitching categories. For those cases (very few) where our numbers differ from the official totals, we have detailed descriptions of the source of these dif- ferences. The logic behind this slow approach is that I thought it would be damaging to our credibility to release one ver- sion of a file without detailed proofing and then to replace it later after we had made corrections.
