    Roy Sievers “A Hero may die, but his memory lives on” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com By BILL HASS I had missed it in the sports section and on the internet. A friend of my mentioned it to me and sent me a link to the story. On April 3 – ironically, right at the start of the 2017 baseball season – Roy Sievers died at age 90. I felt a pang of deep sadness. After all, no matter how old you get, the little kid in you expects your heroes to live for- ever. As the years passed and I didn’t see any kind of obitu- ary on Sievers, I thought perhaps he might actually do that. I knew better, of course. Sometimes reality has a way of intruding on your impossible dreams, and maybe it’s just as well. I have never been much for having heroes. Oh, there are plenty of people I have admired and some of them have done heroic things. But a hero is someone who stays constant, someone you root for no matter what, and people in sports lend themselves to that. Roy Sievers was a genuine hero for me, and, really, the only athlete I ever put in that category. Let me explain why. In the early 1950s, when I first became aware of baseball, my family lived in the northern Virginia suburbs of Wash- ington, D.C. I rooted for the Washington Senators (known to their fans as the “Nats”), to whom the adjective “downtrod- den” was constantly applied, if not invented. Prior to the 1954 season, the Nats obtained Sievers in a trade with the Baltimore Orioles, formerly the St.

  • Al Brancato This Article Was Written by David E
    Al Brancato This article was written by David E. Skelton The fractured skull Philadelphia Athletics shortstop Skeeter Newsome suffered on April 9, 1938 left a gaping hole in the club’s defense. Ten players, including Newsome after he recovered, attempted to fill the void through the 1939 season. One was Al Brancato, a 20- year-old September call-up from Class-A ball who had never played shortstop professionally. Enticed by the youngster’s cannon right arm, Athletics manager Connie Mack moved him from third base to short in 1940. On June 21, after watching Brancato retire Chicago White Sox great Luke Appling on a hard-hit grounder, Mack exclaimed, “There’s no telling how good that boy is going to be.”1 Though no one in the organization expected the diminutive (5-feet-nine and 188 pounds) Philadelphia native’s offense to cause fans to forget former Athletics infield greats Home Run Baker or Eddie Collins, the club was satisfied that Brancato could fill in defensively. “You keep on fielding the way you are and I’ll do the worrying about your hitting,” Mack told Brancato in May 1941.2 Ironically, the youngster’s defensive skills would fail him before the season ended. In September, as the club spiraled to its eighth straight losing season, “baseball’s grand old gentleman” lashed out. “The infielders—[Benny] McCoy, Brancato and [Pete] Suder—are terrible,” Mack grumbled. “They have hit bottom. Suder is so slow it is painful to watch him; Brancato is erratic and McCoy is—oh, he’s just McCoy, that’s all.” 3 After the season ended Brancato enlisted in the US Navy following the country’s entry into the Second World War.

    HRIZONHHIGHWAYS FEBRUARY • 1951 . THIRTY-FIVE CENTS , l /jJI I\fj Spring has a good press. The poets make much ado about birds, bees, flowers and the sprightliness of the season. They neglect such mundane subjects as spring house cleaning and overlook the melancholy fact that armies with evil intentions march when the snow melts. We hope our only concern is with flowers, bees and birds and things like that. As for spring house cleaning, just open the doors and let the house air out. Why joust with vacuum cleaners and mops when spring beckons? Spring does a good job of beckoning in the desert land. It is our pleasure to show you some panoramas of the desert and desert plateau country when nature's fashion calls for spring dress. We wish we could promise the most colorful spring ever but the effiorescence of spring depends on the rainfall. We have had a darned dry "dry spell" hereabouts, broken only by a good rain in late January. If the rains keep on, then we can predict a real pretty March, April and May, but who the heck is going to be silly enough to try to tell whether it'll rain. Anyway, we'll promise you grand weather. An Arizona spring can't be beat. The weather had better be perfect! Sometime this month a group of wonderfully agile and extremely well paid young men who answer to the roll call of the Cleveland Indians, and another group of even more agile and even better paid young men who form the New York Yankees baseball team arrive in Tucson and Phoenix for spring training, the latter to get ready to defend the World's Championship, the former to try to bring it to Cleveland.
