Through my research I have found that both entities follow a very similar timeline with highs and lows coming around the same time in the same province; although, I have not found any direct linkage between the two. My analysis begins around 1837 and continues through present day, and by analyzing the histories of each movement demonstrates clearly that both movements followed a unique and similar timeline.

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.

A Geographic Analysis of Professional Baseball's First-Year Player Signings, 1965-1977
A GEOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL'S FIRST-YEAR PLAYER SIGNINGS, 1965-1977 By MARK WILSON ,,RUPERT Bachelor of Arts Ohio State University Columbus, Ohio 1974 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE May, 1980 \~~'S~S \C\ io ~C\1451 Q.ic~· 1- A GEOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL 1 S FIRST-YEAR PLAYER SIGNINGS, 1965- 1977 Thesis Approved: Thesis Advi & Dean of the Graduate College 1057~29 ii PREFACE This project was initiated in December, 1977 when Dr. John F. Rooney handed me a carton of papers dealing with contemporary profes sional baseball player signings. My original plan was to analyze only a portion of the data for a paper to be presented the following April at the annual meeting of the Association of American Geographers. I became so engrossed with the subject that I soon decided to thoroughly examine the entire data set for a masters thesis. A two-month tour of many of the major league ballparks during the summer of 1978 further aroused my curiosity for the subject. The intertwining of baseball and geography has since become a personal labor of love. It is hoped that others might find this thesis interesting and informative. I must thank Dr. Rooney for making the data available and for his invaluable expertise as my major adviser. Thanks are also extended to Dr. Stephen W. Tweedie and Dr. George 0. Carney for their interest and timely advice. I am indebted to Gayle Maxwell and her cartography staff for their professional work on the maps included in this thesis.
