    Don't count on Phils repeating as champs | Philadelphia Inquirer ... http://www.philly.com/inquirer/sports/39606702.html SPORTS Welcome Guest | Register | Sign In High School Sports email this print this TEXT SIZE: A A A A Posted on Sat, Feb. 14, 2009 Don't count on Phils repeating as champs In five trips to the Series, the team didn't make it back the next year, much less repeat. By Rich Westcott For The Inquirer The euphoria from the Phillies' 2008 World Series victory has yet to subside, but as spring training begins, the speculation already has started. Can the Phillies do it again? Can the team that was one of the best in Philadelphia baseball history and one that captured the hearts of the region win a second consecutive World Series championship? Will there be another parade down Broad Street? While posing that question, which the Phillies and most of their fans hope will be answered in the affirmative, let's look at what the team did in the years after its previous trips to the World Series. The Phils appeared in the Fall Classic in 1915, 1950, 1980, ERIC MENCHER / Staff Photographer 1983 and 1993. Phillies catcher Darren Daulton (right) and reliever Mitch Williams during the 1993 World Despite high expectations, there were no repeats. In the Series against Toronto. last half-century, only one of Philadelphia's major sports teams, the 1974-75 Flyers, won two championships in a row. And in baseball, no team has won two straight since 1 of 3 View images the 1998-2000 New York Yankees.

  • Perspectives
    The Fifth Annual Disability Symposium Perspectives The University of Pennsylvania Friday, April 7, 2006 2006 Disability Symposium Plenary Speakers Learning Disabilities; Past, Present, and Future Doris Johnson, Ph.D. Dr. Doris Johnson is the JoAnn and Peter Dolle Professor of Learning Disabilities, Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders at Northwestern University. Dr. Johnson will take us on a journey from the first identification of adults with learning disabilities matriculating to college, to the present state of affairs, and predictions for the future. The term learning disabilities was first coined in 1963 in Chicago, Illinois, by Samuel Kirk, professor of Special Education at the University of Illinois. Since that time, the understanding of learning disabilities has be greatly improved by the founding of many organizations, the writing of hundreds of books and tens of thousands of articles. Today this population makes up the majority of students receiving academic accommodations at colleges and universities. What will the future bring? Dr. Johnson will bring her experience from years of research, teaching, and service to help participants gain a better understanding of this important topic. Living with Tourette Syndrome Jim Eisenreich When Jim Eisenreich hit a home run in the 1997 World Series, few watching would remember that Tourette Syndrome had almost taken away his dream to play baseball. Jim had a normal childhood and a loving family but at age six he began to exhibit some strange symptoms. Unfortunately, no one knew what it was. He had tics and jerks and could not quit blinking his eyes. His family accepted this behavior. However, at school, where the social pressures can be enormous, he struggled.

  • Estimated Age Effects in Baseball
    Journal of Quantitative Analysis in Sports Volume 4, Issue 1 2008 Article 1 Estimated Age Effects in Baseball Ray C. Fair, Yale University Recommended Citation: Fair, Ray C. (2008) "Estimated Age Effects in Baseball," Journal of Quantitative Analysis in Sports: Vol. 4: Iss. 1, Article 1. DOI: 10.2202/1559-0410.1074 ©2008 American Statistical Association. All rights reserved. Brought to you by | Yale University Library New Haven (Yale University Library New Haven) Authenticated | 172.16.1.226 Download Date | 3/28/12 11:34 PM Estimated Age Effects in Baseball Ray C. Fair Abstract Age effects in baseball are estimated in this paper using a nonlinear fixed-effects regression. The sample consists of all players who have played 10 or more "full-time" years in the major leagues between 1921 and 2004. Quadratic improvement is assumed up to a peak-performance age, which is estimated, and then quadratic decline after that, where the two quadratics need not be the same. Each player has his own constant term. The results show that aging effects are larger for pitchers than for batters and larger for baseball than for track and field, running, and swimming events and for chess. There is some evidence that decline rates in baseball have decreased slightly in the more recent period, but they are still generally larger than those for the other events. There are 18 batters out of the sample of 441 whose performances in the second half of their careers noticeably exceed what the model predicts they should have been. All but 3 of these players played from 1990 on.
