I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

    The Boston Red Sox Saturday, June 27, 2020 * The Boston Globe MLB’s pandemic rules mean big changes for Red Sox TV and radio coverage Chad Finn In Major League Baseball’s packet of rules and regulations for restarting the season even as the COVID-19 virus refuses to yield the field, the effects the pandemic will have on the way media members do their jobs may as well be footnotes. That’s understandable given the wholesale changes required to the schedule and the implementation of complex protocols just to get a 60-game season started. Still, the changes with the media are significant, and will have a noticeable effect on what viewers and listeners receive for a game broadcast. A few notable rules: Only 35 media members per game will be allowed in the ballpark, including photographers but not including broadcasters; interviews with players and other personnel will be done via video conferencing; reporters must leave the ballpark within an hour of the end of postgame interviews. The rules for the television and radio teams are unlike anything that has been done before. Home teams will provide a “neutral” feed for each game, with instructions to show players on both teams equally; television commentators will not be in the ballpark for road games, instead calling them off a feed, but radio announcers will be permitted in road booths. The Red Sox broadcast teams for WEEI radio and NESN are in the process of figuring out their approaches, but some groundwork has already been laid for the targeted July 23 or 24 restart.

  • Danny Litwhiler, Became One of the Greatest Ballplayers Ever to Adorn a Spartan Uniform
    Michigan State Baseball 2007 Media Guide Michigan State University Elite Spartans Spartan Pride 7 Michigan State Baseball 2007 Media Guide Kirk Gibson Kirk Gibson, who joined the baseball team as a junior in 1978 at the recommendation of head coach Danny Litwhiler, became one of the greatest ballplayers ever to adorn a Spartan uniform. Bringing pure speed and raw talent to every at bat, Gibson possessed power at the plate that was unmatchable. Known for his intensity and tenacity, Gibson played just one season at Michigan State before entering the major league draft, where he was chosen as the No. 1 pick by the Detroit Tigers in 1978. Carrying his fi erce competitiveness with him to the big leagues, Gibson became one of the greatest big-moment players in baseball history. A Waterford, Mich., native, Gibson earned fi rst-team All-America honors for the Spartans in both baseball and football in 1978, hitting .390 with 16 homers and 52 RBI in the spring and catching 42 passes for 806 yards (19.2 avg.) with seven touchdowns in the fall. In one of the most historic moments at Kobs Field, Gibson launched a home run that cleared the trees and the Red Cedar River, landing on Adams Field (formerly known as Landon Field) for a blast measuring 550 feet. A four-year letterman in football (1975-78), he amassed 112 career receptions for 2,347 yards and 24 TDs. Highly recruited in both sports, Gibson opted to enter the June 1978 MLB draft. Detroit Tigers manager Sparky Anderson dubbed Gibson as “the next Mickey Mantle.” Nagged by injuries in his fi rst few seasons, the former MSU all-star broke onto the scene in 1984, helping guide the Tigers to a World Series Championship.
