¿SABÍAS QUE... Fernando Valenzuela Fue El Pitcher De Con Una Seguidilla De 41 Inings Y Un Te Que Tenía 73 Años De Vigencia 4C EXPRESO aCCIÓN Sábado 9 de Abril de 2011 9SE CUMPLEN de 30 AÑOS abril DEL DEBUT DE FERNANDO de VALENZUELA 1981: COMO PITCHER ABRIDOR El DE LA ‘FERNAND La lesión de sus Supe que volteaba hacia pitchers estelares “arriba antes de cada pichada obligó al manager hasta que alguien me enseñó Tom LaSorda a usar un video” Fernando Valenzuela al novato mexicano Al hablar de su estilo de lanzar en el juego inaugural Por Arturo Llanes Reyes Tom LaSorda estaba en un pro- blema: su estelar lanzador Jerry Reuss, al que seleccionó para abrir la temporada de 1981, había sufri- do una lesión en su codo izquierdo y el segundo en la rotación, Burt Hooton, tampoco contaba con las condiciones de hacerlo. La misma suerte corría Don Sutton. El carismático piloto de los Dodgers estaba en un aprieto y tenía que decidir rápido quién su- biría a la loma de aquel jueves 9 de abril de 1981 en el Dodger Stadium, hace exactamente hoy 30 años. Apelando a su instinto y a una corazonada, decidió darle la pelo- ta a un novato de escasos 20 años de edad con una experiencia de apenas 17 entradas en las Grandes Ligas: Fernando Valenzuela. Sin saberlo LaSorda había da- do paso a lo que se convertiría en uno de los sucesos más grandes del beisbol norteamericano y que desde ese año se conocería como la “Fernandomanía”. Aquel muchacho nacido en un poblado de Sonora (Etchohuaqui- 25 la) en México, de aspecto regorde- te, con una larga melena y que no JUEGOS INICIÓ hablaba ni una palabra de inglés, EN SU TEMPORADA DE DEBUT blanqueó a los Astros de Houston COMO ABRIDOR EN 1981 en su primera apertura en la “Gran Carpa”, despachándolos en apenas 2 horas y 17 minutos de juego.

    Postseason Recaps, Line Scores, Stats & Records World Champions 1955 World Champions For the Brooklyn Dodgers, the 1955 World Series was not just a chance to win a championship, but an opportunity to avenge five previous World Series failures at the hands of their chief rivals, the New York Yankees. Even with their ace Don Newcombe on the mound, the Dodgers seemed to be doomed from the start, as three Yankee home runs set back Newcombe and the rest of the team in their opening 6-5 loss. Game 2 had the same result, as New York's southpaw Tommy Byrne held Brooklyn to five hits in a 4-2 victory. With the Series heading back to Brooklyn, Johnny Podres was given the start for Game 3. The Dodger lefty stymied the Yankees' offense over the first seven innings by allowing one run on four hits en route to an 8-3 victory. Podres gave the Dodger faithful a hint as to what lay ahead in the series with his complete-game, six-strikeout performance. Game 4 at Ebbets Field turned out to be an all-out slugfest. After falling behind early, 3-1, the Dodgers used the long ball to knot up the series. Future Hall of Famers Roy Campanella and Duke Snider each homered and Gil Hodges collected three of the club’s 14 hits, including a home run in the 8-5 triumph. Snider's third and fourth home runs of the Series provided the support needed for rookie Roger Craig and the Dodgers took Game 5 by a score of 5-3.

  • Progressive Team Home Run Leaders of the Washington Nationals, Houston Astros, Los Angeles Angels and New York Yankees
    Academic Forum 30 2012-13 Progressive Team Home Run Leaders of the Washington Nationals, Houston Astros, Los Angeles Angels and New York Yankees Fred Worth, Ph.D. Professor of Mathematics Abstract - In this paper, we will look at which players have been the career home run leaders for the Washington Nationals, Houston Astros, Los Angeles Angels and New York Yankees since the beginning of the organizations. Introduction Seven years ago, I published the progressive team home run leaders for the New York Mets and Chicago White Sox. I did similar research on additional teams and decided to publish four of those this year. I find this topic interesting for a variety of reasons. First, I simply enjoy baseball history. Of the four major sports (baseball, football, basketball and cricket), none has had its history so consistently studied, analyzed and mythologized as baseball. Secondly, I find it amusing to come across names of players that are either a vague memory or players I had never heard of before. The Nationals The Montreal Expos, along with the San Diego Padres, Kansas City Royals and Seattle Pilots debuted in 1969, the year that the major leagues introduced division play. The Pilots lasted a single year before becoming the Milwaukee Brewers. The Royals had a good deal of success, but then George Brett retired. Not much has gone well at Kauffman Stadium since. The Padres have been little noticed except for their horrid brown and mustard uniforms. They make up for it a little with their military tribute camouflage uniforms but otherwise carry on with little notice from anyone outside southern California.

Chapter one looks at U.S. media narratives of these Mexican baseball players and their focus on these foreign athletes’ bodies when presenting them the American public, arguing that 1980s U.S.

Brought to you by | Yale University Library New Haven (Yale University Library New Haven) Authenticated | 172.16.1.226 Download Date | 3/28/12 11:34 PM Estimated Age Effects in Baseball Ray C. Fair Abstract Age effects in baseball are estimated in this paper using a nonlinear fixed-effects regression. The sample consists of all players who have played 10 or more "full-time" years in the major leagues between 1921 and 2004. Quadratic improvement is assumed up to a peak-performance age, which is estimated, and then quadratic decline after that, where the two quadratics need not be the same. Each player has his own constant term. The results show that aging effects are larger for pitchers than for batters and larger for baseball than for track and field, running, and swimming events and for chess. There is some evidence that decline rates in baseball have decreased slightly in the more recent period, but they are still generally larger than those for the other events. There are 18 batters out of the sample of 441 whose performances in the second half of their careers noticeably exceed what the model predicts they should have been. All but 3 of these players played from 1990 on.

JJ Sells Fellow Boosters – Baseball is in the air! As you read this article, spring training is over, Opening Day has come and gone and the regular season is in full swing. I for one could not be more excited that the off-season has come to an end and the real season is upon us. As we enter this 2019 season, our team appears to be strong with a couple of good acquisitions in Joe Kelly and AJ Pollock, which should make this edition stronger than the 2018 team. Only time will tell if our pitching will be as good as expected and whether Seager can bounce back and have another good year. Only time will tell but this looks once again to be an exciting year. I urge you to buy available tickets and come hang with us. Until then, I will see you all at the ballpark. Ticket Talk . Mae Rosenkranz We are off and running with Opening Day now behind us and an exciting season ahead of us. Let's talk about Awards Night on May 6th. First of all, those who didn’t attend our March Booster Club Meeting did not hear the announcement that the club will no longer get to automatically participate on field for a First Pitch ceremony or Kids to the Field. In order to qualify for a First Pitch, we have to purchase a minimum of 1,000 tickets for that game.
