  • Lyle Judy, “A Thiever & Another Ty Cobb” ©Diamondsinthedusk.Com
    Lyle Judy, “A Thiever & Another Ty Cobb” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com Playing for the Western Association’s Springfield Cardinals in 1935, Lyle Judy re- portedly sets baseball’s modern day base-stealing record with 107 stolen bases, eclipsing the existing record of 96 set by Detroit’s Ty Cobb in 1915. At the time, the actual record for organized baseball is 124 stolen bases set by James John- ston of the Pacific Coast League’s San Francisco Seals in 1913. Named the league’s MVP by the circuits’ official scorers, Judy steals second base 57 times, third base 32 times and home on 18 occasions. However, he does not have much luck against the Hutchinson Larks, with only seven steals in 13 at- tempts and being caught off first once. Several newspapers opine that Judy actually has more stolen bases than he is given credit for because “Class C official scorers can be expected to overlook details like that from time to time.” It’s noted by league scribes that as his steal totals mount up, more and more middle infielders and catchers are deliberately dropping the ball on his attempts so that they would be given a passed ball or an error rather than Judy be awarded a steal. When you add three stolen bases against Ponca City in the playoffs and two while playing with the St. Louis Cardinals after being called up in September, the fleet-footed infielder totaled 112 stolen bases over 152 games with Springfield (144) and St. Louis (8). A 10.2 sprinter in the 100-yard dash while his high school, his 107 thefts lead organized base- Lyle Judy ball in 1935.

    Give Me A “Ball Park Figure”: Creating Civic Narratives Through Stadium Building in Newark, New Jersey By Laura T. Troiano A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in American Studies Program Written under the direction of Beryl Satter And approved by _____________________________________ _____________________________________ _____________________________________ _____________________________________ Newark, New Jersey October 2017 Copyright © 2017 by Laura T. Troiano ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Give Me A “Ball Park Figure”: Creating Civic Narratives Through Stadium Building in Newark, NJ By Laura T. Troiano Dissertation Director: Beryl Satter I came to this project interested in the question, what can narratives about baseball stadiums reveal about the development of Newark, NJ spanning the twentieth century? From this question arose an exploration of narratives that offered insight into competing interests within the city, definitions of civicness, the employment of nostalgia as an argumentative strategy, and how urban development plans are constructed and sold to citizens. The primary focus of this history is centered on two baseball stadiums in Newark, NJ, Ruppert Stadium, built in 1926 and demolished in 1967 and Bears and Eagles Riverfront Stadium, completed in 1999, sold in 2016, and is now slated to be replaced with mixed use retail space and condominiums. The narratives fashioned to support both stadiums construction and maintenance are strikingly similar. For both stadiums, for over a century, Newark mayors, councilmen, successful businessmen, community organizers, newspaper columnists and reporters, and local citizens all craft, repurpose, and used these civic narratives to further their own varied agendas.

  • George Weiss Was Named Farm Director of the Yankees
    National Baseball Hall of Fame Library George M. Weiss Scrapbooks, 1914-1971. BA SCR 61 v. 1-38 Abstract The George M. Weiss scrapbooks are comprised of 38 chronologically-arranged scrapbooks detailing the career of Weiss as well as a history of the teams that he ran. The first baseball executive voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame, Weiss is often perceived as an extremely successful, yet cold, callous man. Though the collection does not necessarily dispute this, it does downplay Weiss’ adverse personal side, concentrating instead on his phenomenal success as a baseball executive. The scrapbooks consist of: newspaper and magazine clippings; original and reproduced cartoons; letters, invitations, and greeting cards; telegrams; original and reproduced photographs (color and black and white); box scores; schedules; rosters; team yearbooks, press guides, programs, and scorecards; pamphlets; press releases; brochures; tickets; clubhouse and parking passes; press credential tags; identification buttons, ribbons, and stickers; business cards; radio scripts; menus; and a checkbook. As newspaper clippings make up the bulk of this collection, many prestigious local and national sports columnists are represented in these pages. These writers include Parke Carroll, Bill Corum, Arthur Daley, Dan Daniel, Ben Epstein, Frank Graham, Milton Gross, Barney Kremenko, Dan Parker, Westbrook Pegler, Jimmy Powers, J. Lester Scott, Red Smith, Joe Williams, and Dick Young. The collection, however, consists of far more than just clippings; there is more than a fair share of correspondence, original photographs, and ephemera which was lovingly and carefully collected (possibly by Weiss’ long-time secretary, Betty King). The end result is a detailed chronicle of Weiss and his work.

  • Just Twelve Metropolitan Areas in the United States Had Major League Baseball Teams Before the Boston Braves Moved to Milwaukee in 1952
    Just twelve metropolitan areas in the United States had major league baseball teams before the Boston Braves moved to Milwaukee in 1952. They became the first major league franchise to move in fifty years and that opened the possibility that other major league teams would relocate. Kansas City Star sports Editor Ernest Mehl and other Kansas City baseball fans wanted to obtain one of those teams for Kansas City.
