The Grateful Heart CHRIST CHURCH EPISCOPAL June 2010 N E W S L E T T E R Dear Friends, I’M Not a Sports Columnist
The Grateful Heart CHRIST CHURCH EPISCOPAL June 2010 N E W S L E T T E R Dear Friends, I’m not a sports columnist. Just a fan. A fan not just of baseball, but of dignified human behavior. It I’m a baseball fan, and the other night something spec- may be that Armando Galarraga didn’t sleep well last tacular happened. The Detroit Tigers were playing the night; it may be that this morning he is pretty upset. But Cleveland Indians. Armando Galarraga was on the in the heat of it, he kept his composure and placed limits mound for Detroit, and for the third time this year the on himself. And then, he went back, kept his focus, and most remarkable singular feat in baseball was about to did his job because a lot of teammates and fans were happen: a perfect game. Galarraga had retired twenty- looking for the win. He won’t go down in the record six straight batters…not a walk, not a wild pitch, not a books as a perfect pitcher, but he proved himself and passed ball, not an error by the other eight players with exceptional human being. And Jim Joyce…umpires him in the field. Twenty-one times in major league base- don’t explain calls to the press, and they don’t apologize ball history had a pitcher thrown a perfect game. And to players…but he did both. He humbled himself. He now, Galarraga was poised to throw the third one this made a mistake, admitted it, and made amends as best season. -

This established the present day at the brief prospect of baseball joy. The Red Sox lose, Braves as baseball’s oldest continuing franchise. Besides and all is right in the universe. It was not always like Wright, the team included brother George at shortstop, this.

"Electric October" by Kevin Cook
John Kosner Home World U.S. Politics Economy Business Tech Markets Opinion Life & Arts Real Estate WSJ. Magazine Search BOOKS | BOOKSHELF SHARE FACEBOOKThe Salt of the Diamond TWITTERA look back at the 1947 World Series—in which Joe DiMaggio and Jackie Robinson played—focusing on six of its unsung heroes. Edward Kosner reviews ‘Electric October’ by Kevin Cook. EMAIL PERMALINK PHOTO: BETTMANN ARCHIVE By Edward Kosner Sept. 28, 2017 6:33 pm ET SAVE PRINT TEXT 7 Of all sports, baseball lives the most in its past. Those meticulous statistics help, of course. And the fact that, over the years, the game has attracted more gifted writers than any other, from Ring Lardner to John Updike, Robert Coover and Philip Roth. Random baseball moments—not just epic coups like Bobby Thomson’s 1951 “miracle” home run—persist in memory long after they should have evanesced. Kevin Cook’s heartfelt and entertaining “Electric October” is ostensibly about the 1947 World Series between Joe DiMaggio’s Yankees and the Dodgers of Jackie Robinson, Pee Wee Reese and Dixie Walker. The book is really about the lost drama and culture of mid- 20th-century baseball still embedded in the minds of old-timers. A onetime editor at Sports Illustrated, Mr. Cook doesn’t focus on the stars DiMaggio and Robinson. Instead he tells the stories of two baseball lifers—the Yankee manager Bucky Harris and the Dodger skipper Burt Shotton—and four bit players: Yankee journeyman pitcher Bill Bevens and Dodgers pinch hitter Cookie Lavagetto, who broke up Bevens’s no- RECOMMENDED VIDEOS hitter in game four; Al Gionfriddo, a diminutive scrub who kept Brooklyn in the series with NYC Sets Up Traveler- a sensational catch in game six; and George (Snuffy) Stirnweiss, a Yankee infielder who was 1. -
