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.

  • Super-Senior Players Still Got Game?
    Super-senior players still got game? Part 1, The National League Squad January 1, 2013 By George Vrechek Collectors have a natural penchant for organizing their collections. As youngsters we may have sorted our cards by number or favorite players. The kids on my block in the 50s played baseball dice games with their cards. Snake eyes, or a one and a one, was a homerun whether Ted Williams was batting or Ted Abernathy. Organizing the teams While the game didn’t make any statistical sense, it did make sense to us to have your “singles” organized by team, all ready to go for the dice games. The teams were kept current by checking the daily sports section for player transactions. If Enos Slaughter got traded to the Yankees, his card was promptly removed from the St. Louis Cardinals’ stack and moved to the Yanks. Sometimes we created cards for rookies not yet appearing on their own card or put the right uniforms on traded players by doctoring a duplicate of a similar-looking player. Minor leaguers, retirees, and deceased If a player went back to the minors, he went into a stack at the back of my card box. If I knew he had retired, he went into another stack. There weren’t too many deceased player cards, but they may have had their own section as well. Had I continued organizing and updating my cards from the 50s, I would now have no one with any team (unless you count those employed as goodwill ambassadors or spring training coaches).

  • Early Memories of Chicago Baseball
    DIVIDED LOYALTIES: EARLY MEMORIES OF CHICAGO BASEBALL Some things are supposed to be unnatural, indefensible, maybe even impossible. But I’m living proof that a person can be a fan of both the Cubs and the White Sox. This is my confession and explanation. Until 1957, when I was eleven, my parents and I lived in Hyde Park. For most of that time, we were within easy walking distance of a great-aunt and uncle who were more like a third set of grandparents. Their home was the East End Park apartment hotel at the corner of 53rd and Hyde Park Blvd.—at the northwest corner, to be precise. That’s important because at the southwest corner was the Del Prado, where visiting teams stayed when they came to Chicago to play the Sox. Naturally, some of us haunted that corner, waiting for the players to come out to board the bus that would take them to Comiskey Park, and hoping that they wouldn’t ignore our plaintive requests for “just one autograph, please!” In the corner of the East End Park, at street level, was O’Connell’s Restaurant, which made decent burgers and served a cheesecake to die for. One family legend has it that some of us were sitting there one day, with me looking out the window and across to the Del Prado, when Ted Williams began to unfold himself from the rear seat of a taxi. As the story goes, I was through the revolving door of the restaurant and half-way across the street, with autograph book in hand, before my hamburger hit my plate.

    Gary Bedingfield’s Baseball Volume 3, Issue 19 in Wartime Baseball April 2009 www.baseballinwartime.com [email protected] in Wartime www.baseballinwartime.com San Antonio Service Baseball League 1945 elcome to the April issue of the Baseball in Wartime Newsletter, which W coincides with the start of the major league baseball season. A new feature is launched with this issue. From now until September, each issue will contain details of the San Antonio Service Baseball League for the corresponding month from 1945. I have always wanted to take a close look at a military baseball league season, and I could think of no better way than to include a month-by-month account in the newsletter. Each issue will bring highlights, news, standing and stats, together with in-depth player profiles. This year is the 65th anniversary of D- Day and the June issue will feature an exclusive article on baseball’s role at Normandy. If you have any stories or anecdotes about ballplayers who were at Normandy on June 6, please get in touch so we can include them. This month I can reveal the title of my forthcoming book with McFarland. Baseball’s Dead of World War II: A Roster of Professional Players Who Died in Service, draws on extensive research, and interviews with surviving family members to give the first published insight into the personal lives, baseball careers and tragic sacrifices made by 127 minor league players during World War II. Future issues of this newsletter will confirm the publish date.
