The 2006 Little League Season and the Opening of Our Brand New Fields 1 President’s Page Spring, 2006 It is with pride and gratitude that I welcome you to the 2006 Swampscott Little League season, during which we will open our brand new softball and baseball complex. When you visit the fields for the first time, you will see the result of an extraordinary effort and partnership between our league and the town. These pristine fields, set against rolling hills offering unique vantage points for spectators, will provide generations of Swampscott Little Leaguers with playing fields the equal of any in the state. Memories that will last a lifetime and be shared with future generations will be created in a setting that too is memorable and enduring. For that, we owe our town officials a debt of gratitude for it was their leadership, vision and commitment to the league and to the children of Swampscott that made this possible. For 52 years, Swampscott Little League has set a standard for excellence unmatched in the state. Beginning as a league comprised of four baseball teams and 60 boys in 1954, we have grown to a league of nearly 850 players, ages 6-16, boys and girls, playing baseball and softball. We are a healthy, vibrant and growing organization dedicated to teaching the values of teamwork, sportsmanship, competition and fair play. We are led by a dedicated and active Board of Directors and by a group of managers, coaches and other volunteers who give their time so others can benefit. I am very proud to be associated with each one of them. They deserve our thanks and gratitude. As we prepare to inaugurate these new fields, we do so ever mindful of the incalculable contributions made by those who came before us . some of whom remain deeply involved in this program to this day. Two people in particular require no last names. They are known simply as Al and Andy. It was their vision 52 years ago that created this league and it is their continuing participation, passion and leadership that helps give it not only a connection to a glorious past, but also its values. For that, we are very, very fortunate. We can only imagine the pride they must feel today seeing the results of what they created in the spring of 1954. To Coach Duratti and Coach Holmes, this program and the new fields are your enduring legacy and you have our most heartfelt thanks. On behalf of the league, I want to wish all the players, managers and coaches the best of luck and the best of times this season. And I want to again thank everyone who made this day and our new field complex possible.

Stotz initiated a baseball program. The next year, he founded Little League Baseball as a three team local league, with the help of a $30 donation for uniforms. Little League remained a small organization through the years of WWII, reaching only 12 leagues, all in Pennsylvania as late as 1946. In 1947, a league was founded in New Jersey, marking the beginning of Little League’s remarkable expansion to its present status as a worldwide organization with nearly 200,000 teams, in all 50 U.S. states and more than 80 countries. In 1954, Swampscott resident Maury Hirshenson, who became the league’s first president, placed an ad in the newspaper seeking like-minded people to establish a Little League program in Swampscott. The league formed with four major league (10-12 year old) teams and promptly became a member of District 15 (each state is divided into District for purposes of conducting post-season tournaments) together with East Lynn, West Lynn, Marblehead National, Saugus American, Nahant, Wyoma and Saugus National. Soon to join were Marblehead American, Lynn Central, West Lynn National, Lynn Shore and Pine Hill. These teams, plus Lynnfield, minus Marblehead and Lynn Central, make up the present District 16 Little League. By this time, Little League had grown to more than 3,300 leagues. Early LL Officials Pictured left to right: Fran Kelleher, Al Duratti, Al Bruno (first umpire-in-chief), Andy Holmes, Al Cerone, Maury Hirshenson, Jerry Kaloust. Not pictured are the first Player Agent and Treasurer Tony Pierre and first Secretary Ginny Ellis. The managers that first year were Andy Holmes (Indians), Al Duratti (Yankees), Al Cerone (White Sox) and Ernie Leger (Red Sox). Al Duratti, who has been a manager ever since, became a manager that year somewhat by accident. He was planning on being a coach for his uncle Al Cerone. (Al Duratti played baseball for Swampscott High School and was bullpen catcher on the state championship team that had as its shortstop future federal judge Joe Tauro.) What happened was that a local resident named Fred Johnson had answered Maury’s ad and volunteered to be a manager. Everyone assumed it was Fred Johnson, Sr., but at the meeting it turned out that 15 year old Fred Johnson Jr. showed up, and the 19 year old Al Duratti was made manager with coaches Fred Jr. and another 15 year old named Dick Jeffers, both of whom later coached baseball at the high school level. Al Duratti’s Yankees were the first champions of the Swampscott LL. 6 (And the second, he says, and only lost in the finals in the third season to his uncle’s White Sox team.) The 1954 Swampscott All-Star team was allowed to play other all-star teams but could not advance due to league rules restricting participation of new programs. (The District Commissioner, now referred to as District Administrator, was Swampscott Resident Ed Shubb.) That year, future Orioles great Boog Powell, played in the LL World Series, as did future Cubs pitcher Ken Hubbs, who was National League Rookie of the Year in 1962. Little League Baseball had by then expanded to more than 3,300 leagues. The members of that first Swampscott All Star team were George Pleau, Ed Loveday, Ken Stein, Bob Berry, Bill Bufalino, Tom Santanello, Tom Sentner, Frank Cahoon, Tony Athanas, Mike Poor, George Arrington, Davie Cobbett and Carl Jaffee. Bill Bufalino went on to manage the LL Tigers for many years and was the manager the 1983 State Champion All Star team. Little League baseball in Swampscott quickly became a big community affair. Al Duratti says that one of the secrets to a successful All-Star program is to get lots of people involved. That has always been the case in Swampscott.

  • Clips for 7-12-10
    MEDIA CLIPS – Nov. 5, 2018 Arenado, LeMahieu repeat as GG winners Third baseman earns sixth in a row; second baseman makes it three in his career Thomas Harding | MLB.com | Nov. 4th, 2018 DENVER -- Make that a golden half-dozen for Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado, and three for second baseman DJ LeMahieu. The winners of the Rawlings Gold Glove Awards were announced Sunday night on ESPN, and Arenado ran his record- setting streak to six in as many seasons in the Majors. It's the longest run for a player at his position to start his career since the award was instituted in 1957. Arenado also surpassed Larry Walker for most Gold Glove Awards in club history. LeMahieu, the only Rockies second baseman to win the award, took it in 2014 before winning it the last two seasons. The Rockies, who won the National League Wild Card and were swept in three games by the Brewers in the NL Division Series, had multiple Gold Glove winners for the second straight year and the seventh time in their 26-season history. The Gold Glove Awards are determined by a system based 75 percent on votes by managers and coaches and 25 percent on defensive metrics developed by the Society for American Baseball Research. "I love fielding and I love working on it," Arenado said. "I thank God for this award. There are a lot of really good third basemen so it feels good, never gets old.
