  • Introduction 1
    Notes Introduction 1. For a more in- depth discussion of patriarchy and nationalism, see Kim’s analysis of the argument of Gates (2005, 16) and Garcia (1997). 2. Omi and Winant (1986) trace the historical development of privilege tied to white- ness but also foreground discussions of race to contest claims that only those in power— that is, those considered white— can be racist. Omi and Winant argue that whenever the construct of race is used to establish in and out groups and hierarchies of power, irrespective of who perpetrates it, racism has occurred. In “Latino Racial Formation,” De Genova and Ramos-Zayas (2003b) further develop the ideas of history and context in terms of US Latinos in their argument that US imperialism and discrimination, more than any other factors, have influenced Latino racializa- tion and thus contributed to the creation of a third pseudoracial group along the black/white continuum that has historically marked US race relations. The research of Omi and Winant and De Genova and Ramos- Zayas coincides with the study of gender, particularly masculinity, in its emphasis on the shifting nature of constructs such as race and gender as well as its recognition of the different experiences of gendered history predicated upon male and female bodies of people of color. 3. In terms of the experience of sexuality through the body, Rodríguez’s memoir (1981) underscores the fact that perceptions of one’s body by the self and others depend heavily on the physical context in which an individual body is found as well as on one’s own perceptions of pride and shame based on notions of race and desire.

  • A Geographical Look at Home Runs
    Academic Forum 24 2006-07 A Geographical Look at Home Runs Fred Worth, Ph.D. Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science Abstract - In this paper, we will look at career home runs for major league baseball players based on the state in which they were born. Major league baseball is known for its interesting statistics. There are multitudes of numbers and multitudes of ways of looking at the numbers. For some now-forgotten reason, I once started looking at home runs by the state of birth of the home run hitter. This chart gives home runs by state (including the District of Columbia). Consider the chart below, where “n” denotes the number of players born in that state who have hit at least one major league home run. [Note: All data comes from Lee Sinin's Sabermetric Baseball Encyclopedia .] HRs n HRs n HRs n Alabama 7985 153 Kentucky 2851 100 North Dakota 284 7 Alaska 71 5 Louisiana 4057 97 Ohio 10682 369 Arizona 876 32 Maine 262 23 Oklahoma 5090 105 Arkansas 3252 61 Maryland 4729 101 Oregon 2293 46 California 41790 894 Massachusetts 4314 217 Pennsylvania 13666 493 Colorado 414 27 Michigan 5057 149 Rhode Island 1093 30 Connecticut 1999 76 Minnesota 2505 62 South Carolina 3496 88 D.C. 600 35 Mississippi 3256 84 South Dakota 122 10 Delaware 563 18 Missouri 6882 234 Tennessee 3045 102 Florida 8984 163 Montana 198 9 Texas 11238 303 Georgia 5672 139 Nebraska 1137 46 Utah 170 11 Hawaii 202 15 Nevada 200 8 Vermont 540 17 Idaho 712 11 New Hampshire 301 20 Virginia 2624 95 Illinois 11504 393 New Jersey 3830 146 Washington 2952 68 Indiana 3601 129 New Mexico 664 9 West Virginia 1803 50 Iowa 1611 75 New York 13008 404 Wisconsin 2534 83 Kansas 1756 66 North Carolina 3507 168 Wyoming 244 6 Not surprisingly, California has both the most home runs and the most 45000 home run hitters.

    I ¡Qt>. 565 MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL PRINCIPAL PLAY-BY-PLAY ANNOUNCERS: THEIR OCCUPATION, BACKGROUND, AND PERSONAL LIFE Michael R. Emrick A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY June 1976 Approved by Doctoral Committee DUm,s¡ir<y »»itti». UNIVERSITY LIBRARY 11 ABSTRACT From the very early days of radio broadcasting, the descriptions of major league baseball games have been among the more popular types of programs. The relationship between the ball clubs and broadcast stations has developed through experimentation, skepticism, and eventual acceptance. The broadcasts have become financially important to the teams as well as the advertisers and stations. The central person responsible for pleasing the fans as well as satisfying the economic goals of the stations, advertisers, and teams—the principal play- by-play announcer—had not been the subject of intensive study. Contentions were made in the available literature about his objectivity, partiality, and the influence exerted on his description of the games by outside parties. To test these contentions, and to learn more about the overall atmosphere in which this focal person worked, a study was conducted of principal play-by-play announcers who broadcasted games on a day-to-day basis, covering one team for a local audience. With the assistance of some of the announcers, a survey was prepared and distributed to both announcers who were employed in the play-by-play capacity during the 1975 season and those who had been involved in the occupation in past seasons.
