  • 1St Connection Between Baseball and Opera
    Baseball & Opera (compiled by Mark Schubin, this version posted 2014 April 14) 1849 : 1 st connection between baseball and opera: Fans of American actor Edwin Forrest, who is playing Macbeth in New York, hire thugs from among ballplayers at Elysian Fields in Hoboken, New Jersey (1 st famous ball field) to disrupt performances of British actor William Macready, also playing Macbeth in New York at what had been Astor Opera House. Deadly riot ensues; Macready is rescued by ex-Astor Opera House impresario Edward Fry, who later (1880) invents electronic home entertainment (and probably headphones) by listening to live opera by phone. 1852: Opera-house exclusivity dispute with composer’s niece Johanna Wagner forms legal basis of baseball’s reserve clause. 1870 : Tony Pastor’s Opera House baseball team is covered by The New York Times (they won). 1875 : San Francisco Chronicle reports on that city’s opera-house baseball team. 1879 : Pirate King role created for Signor Brocolini, who, as John Clark, played first base for the Detroit Base Ball Club. 1881 : Dartmouth College opera group performs to raise money for college’s baseball team. 1884 : Three telegraph operators, James U. Rust, E. W. Morgan, and A. H. Stewart, present live games remotely. One sends plays from ballpark, second receives and announces, third moves cards with players’ names around backdrop. Starting in Nashville’s 900-seat Masonic Theater, they soon move to 2,500-seat Grand Opera House, beginning half-century of remote baseball game viewing at opera houses (also Augusta, GA Grand Opera House starting 1885). 1885 : The Black Hussar is probably 1 st opera with baseball mentioned in its libretto (in “Read the answer in the stars”).

Cresse was mired in a miserable College World Series before his final at-bat. The senior was 1- for-12 in the CWS prior to his game-winning single. Trey Hodges pitched four scoreless innings for his second win of the tournament. Hodges, who Brad Cresse overcame a slump at the plate to retired 10 of the 11 batters he faced, also picked up a save and was selected as the most out- drive in the title-winning run for LSU June 17. standing player of the College World Series. The catcher’s single to left field scored team - mate Ryan Theriot, giving LSU a 6-5 win over Wayne gave up four hits and four runs in relief of starter Jason Young. Wayne started the fifth St a n f o r d . inning and seven of his first nine outs were strikeouts, four looking. The Tigers’ normally strong offensive game seemed to be silent. But LSU (52-17) tied it in the eighth inning with two home runs, setting up Cresse’s dramatics.
