I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

  • By David Raglin Brad Ausmus
    Vol. 29, No. 11 Tigers Fans Who Always Care December 2013 BRAD AUSMUS IS THE TIGERS’ CHOICE – By David Raglin Brad Ausmus, the Tigers’ choice to replace Jim Leyland as manager after Leyland retired, may have been somewhat of a surprise, but Tigers fans should be familiar with him from his two stints as a catcher for the team in the late 1990s/early 2000s. The Tigers interviewed four men for the job. One was Leyland’s longtime hitting coach, Lloyd McClendon. He was the only one who was with the 2013 Tigers and the only one with managerial experience, with the 2001-05 Pittsburgh Pirates. Two other candidates had minor league managerial experience, major league coaching experience, and ties to Dave Dombrowski. Tim Wallach had been a player with the Montreal Expos when Dombrowski was general manager, and is the third base coach for the Dodgers. Rich Renteria played for Dombrowski’s Florida Marlins and was a Padres coach before recently being named manager of the Chicago Cubs. (They also approached Hall of Fame shortstop Barry Larkin, who played for the Reds and for the University of Michigan, but he turned down the chance to interview. They had an unnamed candidate in mind but never asked permission to talk to him.) Ausmus has no minor league or major league field experience as a coach or manager and Dombrowski said they had previously met only briefly. So, why is Brad Ausmus it? He won the job because he came with many good references and wowed Dombrowski and the Tigers during his interview.

  • Candle Lighting Time Is 7:50 Sabbath Services Start at 9:30
    Candle lighting time is 7:50 Sabbath services start at 9:30 What do Danny Kravitz, Hank Greenberg, John Grabow, and Ike Davis have in common? They are all Jews who played for the Pirates There is a long standing stereotype that says that Jews can’t play sports, that they have brains, but no brawn. In 1907, Harvard president Charles Elliot said, “Jews are definitely inferior in stature and physical development.” A 1998 New York Times article referred to, “that reputedly rare species – the Jewish athlete.” Well, last week I was watching the Bucs play the Tigers at PNC Park, and there, on the Tigers bench, sat Manager Brad Ausmus, a Jew, and out at second base was an All Star by the name of Ian Kinsler, another Jew. And one of the greatest sluggers of all time, a former Tiger, and later in his career a Pittsburgh Pirate, Hank Greenberg, was also a Jew. Current Jewish players in MLB also include Ryan Braun of the Brewers, Ike Davis of the A’s, Scott Feldman of the Astros, Jason Marquis of the Reds, Craig Breslow of the Red Sox, Jason Kipnis of the Indians, Danny Valencia of the Blue Jays, Sam Fuld of the A’s, Ryan Lavarnway of the Orioles, and Joc Pederson of the Dodgers. So who were the best Jewish players ever? Let’s start with Sandy Koufax, perhaps the best left handed pitcher of all time. How good was Koufax? Well, the fans who voted in Baseball’s balloting for the All Century Team picked Koufax as the top lefthander of the century, trailing only Nolan Ryan in the overall voting for pitchers.
