* Mrs. Meir and Dayan Stay at Present Posts * Mrs. Meir and Dayan stay at present posts JERUSALEM (AP)--Premier Golda Meir and Defense Minister Moshe Dayan reversed their decisions to quit Isracl s iew government and faced a reported new military crisis on the Syrian war front. But no crisis, tension or military buildup was visible on the Golan Heights where Israeli and Syrian tanks battled during the October war, Israel's state radio reported. Dayan, however, was quoted as saying he agreed to remain Israel's defense boss because of a "new security situation. to help overcome the crisis." The state radio said "intelligence information had been received indi- cating that the Syrians were planning aggressive action." Israeli newspapers headlined unidentified foreign reports of Syrian troop concentrations on the Golan front and a new Soviet arms airlift. The Israeli military command, in a statement repeated in every hourly radio newscast, said the Golan Heights front was calm. Roads in the October war zone were reported open, Jewish settlers were working normally in their frontier fields and orchards and the exact nature of the security crisis was a mystery. Israelis appeared baffled by the sudden and undefined development that ended a 65-day political crisis and prompted Mrs. Meir and Dayan to stay in power. Until Tuesday night, Dayan had refused to join Mrs. Meir's cabinet and Mrs. Meir herself had made no final decision on whether to retire or remain premier. Some Israelis suggested the crisis with Syria was a gambit for the gov- ernment to end the political crisis without losing face, but one western diplomat noted "it couldn't be a fraud. In a society as open as this it would be revealed right away." Other Israelis believed that pressure from Washington was behind Mrs. MOSHE DAYAN Meir's bickering Labor Party pulling itself together'and solving the S . .still defense boss political stalemate.

Hence, construction of a cheap and flexible database system would be a boon to the field. This paper aims to briefly introduce sabermetrics, show why it exists, and detail the reasoning behind and creation of such a database. i Acknowledgements We acknowledge first and foremost the great amount of work and inspiration put forth to this project by Pat Malloy. Working alongside us on an attached ISP, Pat’s effort and organization were critical to the success of this project. We also recognize the source of our data, Project Scoresheet from retrosheet.org.

  • Heroes and Rallies Baseball
    Heroes and Rallies Baseball Setup Pick two teams to go head to head, and fill out your lineups on the scoresheet. Each team receives 8 skill assignments to give to individual players. All of the skill assignments listed below must be used within your starting lineup for a total of 8. A player may possess two assignments if you wish. Rate your lineup by placing the appropriate notation beside a player’s name on the scoresheet. 1) star hitter (H) 2) star slugger (S) 3) star runner (R) 4) star fielder (F) 5) poor hitter (H-) 6) weak hitter (S-) 7) slow runner (R-) 8) poor fielder (F-) Once a player has a skill assignment, he cannot transfer it to another player. There is one additional skill assignment available for an ace pitcher (X). You may, however, choose not to start one. Make any pitcher a poor hitter as well (H-), so there will be two poor hitters if a pitcher is in the lineup. Game Play Roll the dice for each player who comes up to bat, reading the colored die first and the white die second. If a result occurs on the Batting chart which displays an image of a ballplayer, the inning is considered finished with no further scoring. Draw an X in the box on the scoresheet representing the current hitter’s at-bat. When his team next comes up to bat, the next player in the lineup will hit. If the color of a chart result corresponds to the color of the skill assignment of the player who is currently up to bat, the result changes to the one shown on the bottom of the Batting chart.

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.

The Cor- September 26, 1954 sairs enter their Sunday afternoon game with the Brooklyn Ebbetts Field, Brooklyn, N.Y. Dodgers a full 43 games behind the National League champion New York Giants. Mired in a 2-for-25 slump with only one extra base hit in his pre- vious nine games, Allie begins the season finale against Dodg- ers’ rookie sensation Karl Spooner with a .201 batting average. Allie is hitless in four at bats against Spooner when he flies out to left fielder Sandy Amoros in the eighth inning in what turns out to be his final at bat as a major leaguer. The F7 drops his batting average for the season and his career to .199 (.19856 to be exact). A hit in any one of his four at bats that afternoon would have enabled Allie to finish above the .200 mark. The Statesville, North Carolina, native opens the season in a slump and pretty much stays there the entire summer. Allie fin- ishes April with only eight hits in 49 at bats for a .163 average. On May 4, Allie is hitting only .161, and has committed five errors at shortstop when he is benched in favor of 28-year- old WWII veteran Dick Cole.
