  • A History of the United States National Outdoor Smallbore Rifle Championships 1919-2013
    A History of the United States National Outdoor Smallbore Rifle Championships 1919-2013 By Hap Rocketto August 25, 2013 i Acknowledgement This history is an attempt to capture the events and personalities that make the National Rifle Association’s National Outdoor Smallbore Rifle Championship such a powerful and interesting story. Covering the years 1919 through 2002 was done under the auspices of the NRA’s publications division, as source material for The National Matches: 1903-2003 The First 100 Years. The reports of the years 2003-2010 were written for, and published by, Precision Shooting Magazine until that publication’s demise and thereafter they were specifically written for this history. This is not a formal history in the sense that bibliography is not appended nor are sources cited. However, much of this story was collected from the rich store of information archived in the written reports found in the shooting journals Arms and the Man, The American Rifleman, Tournament News, Shooting Sports USA, and Precision Shooting Magazine as well as the programs and bulletins of The National Matches and NRA Shooting Trophies. To these writers, the many anonymous NRA staff writers who reported on the events at Camp Perry without a byline, Kendrick Scofield, Edward C. Crossman, Walter Stokes, C.S. Landis, Stephen Trask, David North, Jack Rohan, L.J. Hathaway, F.C. Ness, C.B. Lister, Robert D. Hatcher, John Schofield, Ron Stann, Paul Cardinal, Frank J. “Al Blanco” Kahrs, Paul Pierpoint, Alan C.

  • July 13, 1909
    July 13, 1909 Cy the Second Blanks Brewers minneapolis, MiNNESOTA Minneapolis’ ace left-hander Irv “Cy the Sec- ond” Young has quite an afternoon pitching a pair of complete game shutouts, and hitting the game-winning home run in the first game, as the Millers post a twin bill sweep of the visiting Milwaukee Brewers. The two victories propel Minneapolis (48-40) past the Brewers (45-41) and into first place in the American Association. A native of Columbia Falls, Maine, Young allows four hits and hits the first of only two career home runs in the 1-0 victory in the day’s opening game ... the 31-year-old former major leaguer is even sharper in the second game, yielding only one hit (to opposing pitcher Tom Dougherty) in a 5-0 whitewashing. Three days later (July 16), Young continues his masterful pitching yielding only three hits and striking out six in a 5-1 win over St. Paul Saints ... Young will finish the season 23-18 and 335 innings pitched. As a 28-year-old rookie with the seventh-place Boston July 13, 1909, Nicollet Park Beaneaters in 1905, Young is Minneapolis Minnesota 20-21 with a 2.90 ERA and leads the National League in innings pitched (378) and complete games (41), fifth with 156 strikeouts and sec- ond to hall of Famer Christy Mathewson in shutouts with seven. Young will pitch six seasons in the major leagues with the Boston (1905-1908), Pittsburgh (1908) and the Chicago White Sox (1910- 1911), compiling a 63-95 record with 120 complete games and a respectable 3.11 ERA.
