RULES: ............................................................................................................................. 18 APPENDIX .................................................................................................................................. 20 4 PROLOGUE The Metropolitan Junior Baseball League (“MJBL”) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that was established in 1966 by Dr. William Forrester and Mr. Caesar Barron. It was conceived because there were limited opportunities for African- American youth to participate in organized baseball. MJBL was formed to provide baseball for youth of all nationalities who had a desire to play. The league was designed to provide wholesome fun through the sport of baseball for the youngsters in Richmond, Virginia. In 1991 MJBL launched its Inner City Classic (“Classic”) in the City of Columbia, SC. It was designed to provide urban youth the opportunity to travel to other cities, compete in the game of baseball and to be exposed to diverse cultures. As the Classic grew, it became apparent that this event would fulfill a niche for a segment population to once again embrace the game of baseball. Thus, through this evolution MJBL has expanded its scope to offer league play and a championship tournament on a National level. MJBL will crown a National Champion annually for the 12 and under age group. MJBL will continue to coordinate with Historically Black Colleges and Universities (“HBCUs”) to host the Classic. It will continue to be offered to youth ages 13 through 19 to expose them to the educational and cultural enrichment opportunities that are available to them through these institutions of higher learning. Rules and Regulations of MJBL’s 12 and under division that includes machine/coach pitch and tee-ball are designed to focus on fundamentals. The overall objective is to keep our youth actively engaged through practices and games to make this sport exciting and fun at an early age. Rising 13 year olds are encouraged to join their nearest Major League Baseball Reviving Baseball in the Inner City (“RBI”) program. Although MJBL will offer baseball to 13 through 19, it by no means intends to conflict or compete with the RBI league. MJBL officials will coordinate with RBI officials to ensure that tournament dates do not conflict. Membership in both leagues is advisable for those who qualify. No league, team or individual that is not in good standing with the RBI league will be permitted to join MJBL. The unique facet of MJBL is the requirement that all leagues will provide avenues for their league members to stay actively involved in educational, cultural enrichment, and athletic endeavors after league play has concluded. This will be accomplished through collaboration with other youth serving agencies (see appendix K) to afford athletes a comprehensive program for their development. The Commissioner for each league will be responsible for establishing a collaborative network in their state. 5 STRUCTURE PRESIDENT: MJBL will have a national President for baseball operations. The President will be appointed by MJBL’s Executive Director, who also shall retain the discretion to remove said President from the position. BOARD OF DIRECTORS: The term will remain effective

  • Negro League Teams
    From the Negro Leagues to the Major Leagues: How and Why Major League Baseball Integrated and the Impact of Racial Integration on Three Negro League Teams. Christopher Frakes Advisor: Dr. Jerome Gillen Thesis submitted to the Honors Program, Saint Peter's College March 28, 2011 Christopher Frakes Table of Contents Chapter 1: Introduction 3 Chapter 2: Kansas City Monarchs 6 Chapter 3: Homestead Grays 15 Chapter 4: Birmingham Black Barons 24 Chapter 5: Integration 29 Chapter 6: Conclusion 37 Appendix I: Players that played both Negro and Major Leagues 41 Appendix II: Timeline for Integration 45 Bibliography: 47 2 Chapter 1: Introduction From the late 19th century until 1947, Major League Baseball (MLB, the Majors, the Show or the Big Show) was segregated. During those years, African Americans played in the Negro Leagues and were not allowed to play in either the MLB or the minor league affiliates of the Major League teams (the Minor Leagues). The Negro Leagues existed as a separate entity from the Major Leagues and though structured similarly to MLB, the leagues were not equal. The objective of my thesis is to cover how and why MLB integrated and the impact of MLB’s racial integration on three prominent Negro League teams. The thesis will begin with a review of the three Negro League teams that produced the most future Major Leaguers. I will review the rise of those teams to the top of the Negro Leagues and then the decline of each team after its superstar(s) moved over to the Major Leagues when MLB integrated.

  • Baseball Day Two Oct 1, 2009 775
    766. Wyatt Earp 1870 Signed Subpoena Resourceful, to say the very least, Wyatt Earp wore the hat of farmer, buffalo hunter, miner and boxing referee (among other endeavors) long before embrac- ing his role at the O.K. Corral. The offered display is an incredibly scarce “Wild West” find: a legal docu- ment signed by Earp. To begin with, Earp’s penning is among the most rare of men of his ilk. Sweetening the pot further is the fact that this bold signature was exe- cuted in a lawman’s capacity. All of 21 years old with volumes of lawless activity still years ahead, Earp, acting as the Barton County, Missouri local constable, penned this subpoena to be served to one Mr. Thomas G. Harvey, informing said party that he would have to testify within a fortnight in the case of Missouri vs. Thomas Brown. Arranged in a handsome 25-3/4 x 17- 1/2” wooden frame, the 7-3/4 x 4-3/4” original docu- ment (shown on the reverse, penned entirely in Earp’s hand) is displayed below a photocopy of the front so that both sides can be viewed simultaneously. On the reverse, Earp has inscribed: “I have served the within summons upon the within named Thomas G. Harvey by reading the same to him this Feb 28, 1870 - W.S. Earp, Const.” The black-ink fountain pen content is crisply executed with Earp’s endorsement projecting (“9-10”) quality. The piece is affected by a small tear at the far left, (3) tiny slashes near the upper portion and a horizontal compacting fold.

For each exercise, identify one AND ONLY ONE of our fallacies that is exhibited in that statement. GIVE A DETAILED EXPLANATION TO JUSTIFY YOUR CHOICE. 1.) "According to Joe Shlabotnik, the manager of the Waxahachie Walnuts, you should never call a hit and run play in the bottom of the ninth inning." 2.)

"Former major league pitcher Ross Grimsley, nicknamed "Scuzz," would not wash or change any part of his uniform as long as the team was winning, believing that washing or changing anything would jinx the team." 6.) The part of a major league infield that is inside the bases is a square that is 90 feet on each side. What is its area in square centimeters? You must show the use of units and conversion factors.

  • Negro Leaguers in Service If They Can Fight and Die on Okinawa and Guadalcanal in the South Pacific, They Can Play Baseball in America
    Issue 37 July 2015 Negro Leaguers in Service If they can fight and die on Okinawa and Guadalcanal in the South Pacific, they can play baseball in America. Baseball Commissioner AB "Happy" Chandler This edition of the Baseball in Wartime Newsletter is dedicated to all the African- American baseball players who served with the armed forces during World War II. More than 200 players from baseball’s Negro Leagues entered military service between 1941 and 1945. Some served on the home front, while others were in combat in Europe, North Africa and the Pacific. These were the days of a segregated military and life was never easy for these men, but, for some, playing baseball made the summer days a little more bearable. Willard Brown and Leon Day (the only two black players on the team) helped the OISE All-Stars win the European Theater World Series in 1945, Joe Greene helped the 92nd Infantry Division clinch the Mediterranean Theater championship the same year, Jim Zapp was on championship teams in Hawaii in 1943 and 1944, and Larry Doby, Chuck Harmon, Herb Bracken and Johnny Wright were Midwest Servicemen League all- stars in 1944. Records indicate that no professional players from the Negro Leagues lost their lives in service during WWII, but at least two semi-pro African-American ballplayers made the ultimate sacrifice. Grady Mabry died from wounds in Europe in December 1944, and Aubrey Stewart was executed by German SS troops the same month. With Brown and Day playing for the predominantly white OISE All-Stars, Calvin Medley pitching for the Fleet Marine Force team in Hawaii, and Don Smith pitching alongside former major leaguers for the Greys in England, integrated baseball made its appearance during the war years and quite possibly paved the way for the signing of Jackie Robinson.
