  • Major League Baseball's I-Team
    Major League Baseball’s I-Team The I-Team is composed of players whose names contain enough unique letters to spell the team(s) for which they played. To select the team, the all-time roster for each franchise was compared to both its current name as well as the one in use when each player was a member of the team. For example, a member of the Dodgers franchise would be compared to both that moniker (regardless of the years when they played) as well as alternate names, such as the Robins, Superbas, Bridegrooms, etc., if they played during seasons when those other identities were used. However, if a franchise relocated and changed its name, the rosters would only be compared to the team name used when each respective player was a member. Using another illustration, those who played for the Senators from 1901 to 1960 were not compared to the Twins name, and vice versa. Finally, the most common name for each player was used (as determined by baseball- reference.com’s database). For example, Whitey Ford was used, not Edward Ford. Franchise Team Name Players Angels Angels Al Spangler Angels Angels Andres Galarraga Angels Angels Claudell Washington Angels Angels Daniel Stange Angels Angels Jason Bulger Angels Angels Jason Grimsley Angels Angels Jose Gonzalez Angels Angels Larry Gonzales Angels Angels Len Gabrielson Angels Angels Paul Swingle Angels Angels Rene Gonzales Angels Angels Ryan Langerhans Angels Angels Wilson Delgado Astros Astros Brian Esposito Astros Astros Gus Triandos Astros Astros Jason Castro Astros Astros Ramon de los Santos

  • The News Weekly for Today Kansas City, Missouri, March 22, 1935 Single Copy 5 Cents Vol
    The News weekly for Today Kansas City, Missouri, March 22, 1935 Single Copy 5 Cents Vol. I No. 11 SNAPSHOTS OF THE WEEK WHEN IS A PUBLIC RECORD? Dictionary definition: “Public—adj., open to all. Record—noun, a writing, printing, entry or tracing made for the purpose of preserving authentic evidence of facts or events.” It was all very puzzling. First there was the matter of the insurance. Mr. Darby, Director of Finance, was perfectly clear on the matter. The public records of the city’s insurance policies were right there, open to any private citizen, but to a reporter they were locked, the logic of the case being that the public records could not be used for any public purpose. We offered, generously, to re- i turn in half an hour, wearing dark glasses and the other half of our dual personality, in short, as a private citizen. Mr. Darby was very nice about it, but explained that he couldn’t possibly show the records to a private citizen as no p. c. could have any conceivable reason for wanting to see them and therefore it would just be morbid curiosity, a dangerous trait in citizens which should be discouraged. It was clearly an occasion that called for a third half of a personality, but we hadn’t been able to discover any provision for such an emergency either in the charter or in the dictionary. It must be one of those stages in the evolution of man that comes with the Machine Age in city politics. This week witnesses the transfer of justice from the river front to its new quarters on the edge of the downtown district.

  • Baseball Cards Have New T3s, T202 Triple Folders, B18 Blankets, 1921 E121s, 1923 Willard’S Chocolates and 1927 W560s
    Clean Sweep: The Sweet Spot for Auctions The sports memorabilia business seems to have an auction literally every day, not to mention ebay. Some auctions are telephone book size catalogs with multiple examples of the same item (thus negatively affecting prices) while others are internet-only auctions that run for a short time and have only been in business for a relatively short time (5 years or less). Clean Sweep Auctions is the sweet spot of sports auction companies. We have been in business for over 20 years and have one of the deepest and best mailing lists of any auction house. Do not think for a second that a printed catalog in addition to a full fledged website will not result in higher prices for your prized collection. Clean Sweep has extensive, virtually unmatched experience in working with all higher quality vintage cards, autographs and memorabilia from all of the major sports. Our catalogs are noted for their extremely accurate descriptions, great pictures and easy to read layout, including a table of contents. Our battle tested website is the best in the business, combining great functionality with ease of use. Clean Sweep will not put your cherished collection in random or overly large lots, killing the potential to get a top price. We can spread out your collection over different types of auctions, maximizing prices. We work harder and smarter than anyone in the business to bring top dollar for your collection at auction. Clean Sweep is extremely well capitalized, with large interest-free cash advances available at any time.
