  • Repeal of Baseball's Longstanding Antitrust Exemption: Did Congress Strike out Again?
    Repeal of Baseball's Longstanding Antitrust Exemption: Did Congress Strike out Again? INTRODUCrION "Baseball is everybody's business."' We have just witnessed the conclusion of perhaps the greatest baseball season in the history of the game. Not one, but two men broke the "unbreakable" record of sixty-one home-runs set by New York Yankee great Roger Maris in 1961;2 four men hit over fifty home-runs, a number that had only been surpassed fifteen times in the past fifty-six years,3 while thirty-three players hit over thirty home runs;4 Barry Bonds became the only player to record 400 home-runs and 400 stolen bases in a career;5 and Alex Rodriguez, a twenty-three-year-old shortstop, joined Bonds and Jose Canseco as one of only three men to have recorded forty home-runs and forty stolen bases in a 6 single season. This was not only an offensive explosion either. A twenty- year-old struck out twenty batters in a game, the record for a nine inning 7 game; a perfect game was pitched;' and Roger Clemens of the Toronto Blue Jays won his unprecedented fifth Cy Young award.9 Also, the Yankees won 1. Flood v. Kuhn, 309 F. Supp. 793, 797 (S.D.N.Y. 1970). 2. Mark McGwire hit 70 home runs and Sammy Sosa hit 66. Frederick C. Klein, There Was More to the Baseball Season Than McGwire, WALL ST.

  • Ex-White Sox Slugger Ron Kittle Takes His Cuts for the Chicago Baseball Museum
    Ex-White Sox slugger Ron Kittle takes his cuts for the Chicago Baseball Museum. By Paul Ladewski After what the Cubs went through in the postseason, do you have any sympathy for them given that you played for the 1983 White Sox team that also experienced a sudden and massive slump? There's no sympathy for anybody in this game. There are winners and there are losers. That's how I was brought up to play, you know? There's going to be a W next to one team and not the other. But I don't like to the see the season end for any team. How do you explain that the White Sox scored only three runs in four games against the Baltimore Orioles in the ALCS that season? Good pitching will shut out down good hitting. In '83, we finished, what, 20 games ahead of everybody in our division? A slow time was going to come for us -- and it did. (Laughs.) Orioles starter Mike Flanagan fractured your left kneecap with a pitch in Game 3 of the series. You sat out the last three innings of that game and all of the next one. If healthy, would you have made a difference in the last two games? Nobody knows. I can only attest to what I thought -- I wanted to be the hero every single day that I played the game. Every day. I knew that I would be the goat more times than not, but at least I went into every game with an attitude.

It has been an historic World Series: The first outside the United States and the first won by a team based in Canada. And Pat "North of the" Borders was named MVP. Catchers in fact figured heavily in the course of this series. It was a World Series that demonstrated certain truisms of baseball: Good pitching dominates good hitting, and in a close series the weaknesses of a team become glaring. In both the case of the Blue Jays and the Braves this latter proposition was true.
