  • Barney Deforge “Luckie No More” ©Diamondsinthedusk.Com
    Barney DeForge “Luckie No More” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com On a seasonably warm Friday evening in Winston-Salem’s venerable Southside May 14, 1948 Park, the homestanding Cardinals, behind the two-hit pitching of lefty Jack Southside Park Frisinger, take the measure of visiting Reidsville 5-0 in one of four Carolina (D) Winston-Salem, North Carolina League games played that day. At first glance, it seems like just another day of minor league baseball in the Tar Heel State. After all, Winston-Salem, the league’s preseason favorite, currently resides in first place with an impressive 18-7 mark while the fifth-place Luckies drop to 9-12 and a full seven games behind their hosts. And being shutout by the 20-year-old Frisinger, a rising star in the St. Louis Car- dinals farm system, comes as no surprise to Carolina League fans. Said “to be faster than Harvey Haddix,” the burgeoning Cardinals ace limits the Luckies to a pair of singles en route to securing the third of an eventual team-high 18 wins. The 6-foot-1 Kalamazoo, Michigan, native strikes out seven and walks three in the route-going effort. However, several events that take place during the game that are suspicious and, unfortunately, a harbinger of problems to come, both for DeForge and the Carolina League. First, Winston-Salem officials report to the police there is a person in the stands “making heavy bets,” giving Reidsville and two runs which meant that if the Cardinals won by three or more runs, he will win all bets placed.

  • Article Title
    General Admission Ragtime Baseball in New Orleans by S. Derby Gisclair Member, Society for American Baseball Research Ragtime was a new, syncopated music style born in the saloons and “sporting houses” of New Orleans’ Storyville district, an area named after city councilman Sidney Story, who in 1898 authored the legislation establishing the district. It was bounded by Iberville, Basin, St. Louis, and Robertson streets. At the same time that ragtime was gaining popularity throughout the South, the parallel popularity of the city’s professional baseball club, the New Orleans Pelicans, was gaining momentum as well. During the post-Civil War years the center of the baseball world in the South was New Orleans. The city boasted fifteen teams that had joined the National Association, the largest contingent from any southern city. Among these was an amateur team formed in 1865 known as the Pelicans. The city’s first professional team in 1887 as part of the Southern League, the Pelicans became a more stable enterprise in the reconstituted Southern Association that began play in 1901. The early Southern Association operated in a period in baseball known as the Deadball Era, so called primarily because of the type of ball used, but also because of the style of play at the time. It was a game which employed the General Admission scientific method – today known as “small ball” – bunts, hit an run plays, and base stealing. Hitters would choke up on their heavy wooden bats and would try to punch or slash a hit over the infield. Baseball entered the mainstream of the American cultural landscape in the early 20th century and the game’s popularity soared due to increased coverage in newspapers and periodicals.

  • Forgotten Heroes
    Forgotten Heroes: Sam Hairston by Center for Negro League Baseball Research Dr. Layton Revel Copyright 2020 “Sam Hairston Night” – Colorado Springs (1955) “Sam Hairston Night” at the Colorado Springs Sky Sox Ball Park Sam Receives a New Car (1955) Hairston Family at Colorado Springs Ball Park “Sam Hairston Night” (front row left to right - Johnny, Sam Jr., Wife and Jerry) (1955) Samuel Harding Hairston was born on January 20, 1920 in the small town of Crawford, Lowndes County which is in the eastern part of the state of Mississippi. He was the second of thirteen children (eight boys and five girls) born to Will and Clara Hairston. Will Hairston moved his family from Crawford to the Birmingham area in 1922. The primary reason for the move was to find better work so that he could support his large family. Will became a coal miner and worked alongside Garnett Bankhead who was the father of the five Bankhead brothers who all played in the Negro Leagues. By 1930 Will had gained employment with American Cast Iron and Pipe (ACIPCO) as a laborer in their pipe shop. According to United States census records the Hairston family also lived in North Birmingham and Sayreton. Sam spent his formative years in Hooper City and attended Hooper City High School. Reportedly Sam did not finish high school and when he was 16 he told the employment office at ACIPCO that he was 18 and was given a job working for the company. According to Sam he went to work to help support the family and give his brothers and sisters the opportunity to go to school.

  • Rickwood Field, on Birmingham's West Side, Was Completed in August 1910, Just 10 Days After Old Comiskey Park Was Dedicated
    During the spring of 1994, I trailed Michael Jordan during his Minor League Baseball adventure. Much more eventful was taking Negro Leaguer Lyman Bostock, Sr. to his sanctuary of memories. Since my 1994 visit, Rickwood has been restored and hosts the annual turn-back-the-clock "Rickwood Classic" featuring the Birmingham Barons. April 17, 1994---- BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Another world away from the new dreams of Michael Jordan stands the oldest ballpark in America. Construction on courtly Rickwood Field, on Birmingham's west side, was completed in August 1910, just 10 days after old Comiskey Park was dedicated. Almost every baseball legend played at Rickwood, from Babe Ruth, "Shoeless" Joe Jackson and Ty Cobb to Satchel Paige, Reggie Jackson and Hank Aaron. A few weeks ago director Ron Shelton ("Bull Durham," "White Men Can't Jump") filmed scenes for his fall release "Cobb," starring Tommy Lee Jones, at Rickwood. Rickwood is a feisty old dame in her golden years. Though the Class AA Birmingham Barons left in 1987 for the affluent suburb of Hoover, her time is far from up. Almost to underscore that point, the 33-foot center-field scoreboard is punctuated on top by a Bulova clock. The manual scoreboard has been renovated. The stadium's 9,100 seats have been scrubbed down. Period-piece outfield signs remain from the "Cobb" film. And if you're lucky, you'll walk into Rickwood during a sweet spring afternoon and find ex-Pittsburgh Pirate Bob Veale tending to the mound. A Birmingham native, Veale is the Rickwood groundskeeper a couple of times a week.
