Steve Bartman Dreamreader.net Sport – Advanced Level Steve Bartman Newspapers called him the most hated man in Chicago. Baseball fans threatened his life and the police needed to protect him. For several weeks in October of 2003, sports radio and television could not stop talking about one man and what he had done. His name was Steve Bartman and some people at the time claimed that he single-handedly ruined the Chicago Cubs playoff run. In 2003, the Chicago Cubs were playing in the National League Championship series. This was incredibly important for Cubs fans because winning this series would allow their team to advance to the World Series Championships, the biggest contest in Major League Baseball. The Cubs had not won the World Series championship since 1908. However, the Cubs were a formidable team in 2003 and on October 14th of that year, they needed to win only one more game against the Florida Marlins to advance to the World Series. It would be the closest the Cubs had gotten to the World Series Championship in almost 100 years. With their hopes high and wildly excited at the possibility of going on to the World Series, Cubs fans packed the stadium at Wrigley Field in Chicago. By the eighth inning, the Cubs were in front of the Marlins by a score of 3 to 0. It seemed almost certain that Chicago would win the game. The Marlins’ second baseman, Luis Castillo, went up to bat and hit several foul balls. If any of the Cubs players could catch one of them before it landed, the Cubs would earn the win. One of Castillo’s foul balls finally flew towards Cubs’ player Moises Alou and it seemed like an easy catch for a player of his ability. Just before Alou could grab the ball, however, a fan reached out from the stands and caught it. Alou got angry, threw his baseball glove on the field and shouted at the fans. The game continued and the Cubs lost the game as the Marlins proceeded to score eight runs. For days after the series ended, incensed Cubs fans phoned into local radio stations and complained about the fan who snatched the ball away from Moises Alou. Someone posted the fan’s personal information on the Internet and some people even threatened his life. Six police cars were sent to his home to protect him and his family. The fan, who was identified as Steve Bartman, later wrote to the media that he was very sorry for the incident and that he was so focused on catching the ball that he did not see Alou’s attempt to do the same. Although reporters made repeated interview requests, Bartman refused all of them. Some time has passed since “the Bartman incident”. Steve Bartman has returned to his normal life and most people outside of Chicago have forgotten about him. The foul ball which Bartman caught was sold at an auction and it was destroyed in an explosion by a special effects expert. The remains of the ball were boiled and the steam was added to a pasta sauce. Bartman’s seat at Wrigley Field has become a tourist attraction and fans often take photos of it. Moises Alou has said he forgives Bartman and has moved on. This text is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License.

  • The Boston Red Sox Wednesday, April 11, 2018 * the Boston Globe
    The Boston Red Sox Wednesday, April 11, 2018 * The Boston Globe Red Sox keep ‘riding the wave’ in ninth straight victory Peter Abraham The Red Sox had the best record in spring training, winning 14 of their last 15 games. But it didn’t matter because it was spring training. Then they got off to the best start in team history, winning eight of their first nine games. But it didn’t matter because it came against the penny-pinching Tampa Bay Rays and Miami Marlins. Now does it matter? A 14-1 victory against the Yankees on Tuesday night certainly suggests there is more going on at Fenway Park than simply fortuitous scheduling. Mookie Betts had four hits, including a grand slam, as the Sox rolled to their ninth consecutive victory before a crowd of 32,357 at Fenway Park. At 9-1, the Sox have the best record in the American League under new manager Alex Cora. The first three hitters in the order — Betts, Andrew Benintendi, and Hanley Ramirez — were 8 of 9 with eight runs scored, nine RBIs, five extra-base hits, and four walks. “It’s definitely super fun to be involved in any win. I just do what I can,” said Betts, who is hitting .432 with a 1.263 OPS. Betts scored five runs, a career high. He is only the seventh player in history to score five or more runs against the Yankees, the first since Luis Castillo of the Mets in 2008. The 14 runs were the most for the Sox against the Yankees since a 14-1 victory on Aug.

  • LSUS Pilots Ranked 13Th in NAIA Preseason Polls
    LSUS Pilots Ranked 13th in NAIA Preseason Polls NOVEMBER 28, 2006 Shreveport, LA---Since a 3rd place finish in the 2003 NAIA World Series, the LSUS Pilots have accumulated a 121-69 overall record which includes a 2005 Gulf Coast Athletic Conference Championship, a 2006 GCAC Tournament Championship, and appearances in the 2005 and 2006 NAIA Region XIII Championship games. The Pilots quest for a second appearance at the NAIA World Series will begin in February 2007, but they have made the headlines with a No. 13 preseason ranking after finishing 41-23 in 2006. The Pilots continued success on the field has resulted in yet another solid recruiting class for Head Coach Rocke Musgraves and his 2007 squad. A big reason for the Pilots preseason ranking lies in the strength of what in Musgraves’ mind has become the strongest pitching staff ever assembled at LSUS. “It is very exciting when you can say you return your top two arms from the previous season in Kevin Jewell and Matt Clayman, who combined for 17- wins, 156-strikeouts, and platooned for 189.2 innings. We have strengthened both our starting rotation as well as our bullpen which allows us to start some very quality arms during our midweek games, while still being very strong off the bump on the weekend,” commented Musgraves. LSUS welcomes the addition of Prairie Baseball Academy’s Marc Dainty; a 6’5 right hander who will compete for a starting spot in the Pilots weekend rotation. Paul Marlow, a 6’7 right hander who has the ability to pitch in the 90mph range is also expected to have some success throughout his senior season.

The New York Yankees, Philadelphia/Oakland Athletics, and St. Louis Cardinals have won many. The Boston Red Sox, Chicago White Sox, and San Francisco Giants endured decades-long dry spells before they finally won the orldW Series. Even expansion teams like the New York Mets, Toronto Blue Jays, Kansas City Royals, and Florida Marlins have won multiple championships.
