The contributing features of the ball park complex include the ball field and a historic grandstand, which was constructed in 1929. The contributing elements are surrounded by several non-contributing buildings, which were added to the property between 1972 and 1990. Setting Jackie Robinson Ball Park is located on City Island, a small island located in the Halifax River opposite the historic downtown core of the City of Daytona Beach (photo 1). When it was constructed c.1915, the field covered almost all of the original portion of City Island. Fill obtained by dredging the Halifax River channel was used to expand the island to its present dimensions during the period between the mid 1920s and early 1960s. The island is now reached from the mainland by two bridges that extend from Orange and Magnolia avenues. The Orange Avenue bridge—the southernmost of the two bridges—crosses

  • Jackie Robinson's Original 1945 Montreal Royals and Original 1947
    OLLECTORS CAFE PRESENTS Jackie Robinson’s Original 1945 Montreal Royals and Original 1947 Brooklyn Dodgers Contracts Founding Documents of the Civil Rights Movement OLLECTORS CAFE The Global, Lifestyle, Collectibles Brand is Coming! The Collectibles and Memorabilia industry is a $250+ billion dollar per year global market that is substantially fragmented with no one entity owning more than one half of one percent of market share. Further, there is NO MEETING PLACE for collectors to gather with other like minded collectors socially, and display their passion for their own collections. Lastly, there is no place to purchase all categories of collectibles, under one trusted umbrella, in a safe, AUTHENTICITY INSURED, environment. This is all about to change with the launch of the Collectors Cafe Company, where “PRE-APPRAISED, “PRE-AUTHENTICATED” and “PRE-INSURED” collectibles will be coming soon. Through the invention of AUTHENTICITY INSURANCE by company founder Mykalai Kontilai, Collectors Cafe has successfully executed agreements with some of the largest insurance companies who will underwrite all collectibles offered on the website. Lloyds of London (Hiscox), AIG, Liberty Mutual, Chubb, C.V Starr, Navigators, and XL are all exclusive underwriters and partners. This amazing accomplishment, we believe, will spark a COLLECTIBLES REVOLUTION, which will begin to consolidate the industry through the first online and global “One-Stop Shop” for buying, selling, and social networking for the entire collectibles market place. Driving the brand will be a plethora of multi-media assets, including but not limited to, the Collectors Cafe TV Series, The Collectors Cafe Blogger Network, The Collectors Tube Digital Content Platform, The Collectors Cafe Celebrity Collector Portal, The Collectors Cafe Master Dealer Network, and the Collectors Cafe IP Portfolio.

  • 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.

  • Major League Baseball's I-Team
    Major League Baseball’s I-Team The I-Team is composed of players whose names contain enough unique letters to spell the team(s) for which they played. To select the team, the all-time roster for each franchise was compared to both its current name as well as the one in use when each player was a member of the team. For example, a member of the Dodgers franchise would be compared to both that moniker (regardless of the years when they played) as well as alternate names, such as the Robins, Superbas, Bridegrooms, etc., if they played during seasons when those other identities were used. However, if a franchise relocated and changed its name, the rosters would only be compared to the team name used when each respective player was a member. Using another illustration, those who played for the Senators from 1901 to 1960 were not compared to the Twins name, and vice versa. Finally, the most common name for each player was used (as determined by baseball- reference.com’s database). For example, Whitey Ford was used, not Edward Ford. Franchise Team Name Players Angels Angels Al Spangler Angels Angels Andres Galarraga Angels Angels Claudell Washington Angels Angels Daniel Stange Angels Angels Jason Bulger Angels Angels Jason Grimsley Angels Angels Jose Gonzalez Angels Angels Larry Gonzales Angels Angels Len Gabrielson Angels Angels Paul Swingle Angels Angels Rene Gonzales Angels Angels Ryan Langerhans Angels Angels Wilson Delgado Astros Astros Brian Esposito Astros Astros Gus Triandos Astros Astros Jason Castro Astros Astros Ramon de los Santos
