He turned himself in to law enforcement Thursday at the Teeples Putnam County Sheriff ’s Offi ce. Teeples is a 2017 graduate of Upperman High School. Offi cials with the Putnam County Sheriff ’s Offi ce investigated the rape, but would not release the report Friday. The alleged rape happened Oct. 2, 2018, according to the indictment.

    Communication and Critical/Cultural Studies Vol. 2, No. 2, June 2005, pp. 107–129 Ritual in the “Church of Baseball”: Suppressing the Discourse of Democracy after 9/11 Michael L. Butterworth Baseball was among the most prominent American institutions to respond to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Tributes at ballparks across the country promised comfort to millions in shock but soon developed into rituals of victimization that affirmed the Bush administration’s politics of war, discouraged the expression of dissenting opinions, and burdened the nation with yet another disincentive to reflect constructively on its response to terrorism. This essay views the aftermath of 9/11 as a quasi-religious social drama in which ballpark tributes became a ritualized vehicle for a belligerent patriotism that sought unity at the expense of democratic discourse. Keywords: Baseball; Democracy; Patriotism; War on Terrorism; Rituals of Victimization On October 12, 2003, the Chicago Cubs and Florida Marlins played in the fifth game of baseball’s National League Championship Series. Thousands of Chicago fans, hoping to see their team end a 58-year World Series drought, made their way to Miami’s Pro Player Stadium and provided loyal and raucous support for the visiting Cubs. When the game reached the seventh-inning stretch, Cubs fans enthusiastically began singing “Take Me Out to the Ballgame,” but they were quickly silenced by the stadium’s public address system and the remaining fans who belted out “God Bless America” instead. One fan in a Cubs hat and jersey lamented, “Come on, it’s a baseball game!” Only after the public display of patriotism had subsided were Cubs fans able to perform their song.1 Michael L.

  • September 27, 2011 Daily Herald the Movie 'Moneyball' Has
    September 27, 2011 Daily Herald The movie ‘Moneyball’ has Cubs connections By: Bruce Miles SAN DIEGO — Had a chance to see the movie “Moneyball” the other day. For my money, so to speak, it was one of those rare instances where the movie was better than the book, and the book was pretty darn good. Without going all movie reviewer on you, I thought the movie did a much better job of humanizing Oakland Athletics GM Billy Beane better than the book. I guess Brad Pitt will do that. There are Cubs connections to the movie, and I had a chance to talk with some of them this evening here at Petco Park. And as it always goes with these things, you find out that “based on a true story” means just that. There is definitely some fudging with the “truth.” Take Cubs first baseman Carlos Pena, for instance. In the movie, Beane tells his assistant to give the word to Pena that he had been traded to Detroit. “Movies are not always exact — I was in Triple-A,” Pena said. “It’s a little bit of an adaptation. I came off the field in Sacramento. My manager at Sacramento said, ‘Hey, Carlos, stay put because I think something’s going on.’ That’s the way it went down.” The movie had Beane moving Pena because he wanted to get playing time at first base for Scott Hatteberg, a “Moneyball” example of an undervalued player who could be had inexpensively and still produce. Along those lines, “Moneyball” — the book and the movie — is not “about on-base percentage.” Sure, players with high OBPs were favored by the “Moneyball” set, but “Moneyball” really is about identifying inefficiencies in the marketplace and exploiting them.

    The Boston Red Sox Friday, March 27, 2020 * The Boston Globe The Red Sox owe us some answers on Chris Sale’s surgery Dan Shaughnessy The Red Sox’ refusal to disclose anything about Chris Sale’s elective elbow surgery in the middle of a national medical-supply shortage is unacceptable. New York Mets righthander Noah Syndergaard was scheduled for Tommy John surgery Thursday at the Hospital for Special Surgery in West Palm Beach, Fla. The Mets said that team doctor David Altchek would perform the surgery, even though the Florida governor has barred nonessential elective medical procedures in the state. Doctors in Florida are empowered to determine what is essential, and a Mets official told the Wall Street Journal, "This condition fits within the essential surgery guidelines.'' Last Thursday, the Red Sox announced that Sale, who is in the first year of a five-year, $145 million contract extension, would require Tommy John surgery. When Sox chief baseball officer Chaim Bloom was asked about nonessential surgeries being put on hold in the middle of a pandemic, he acknowledged that he considered Sale’s surgery elective. "Obviously something we’re mindful of,'' said Bloom. "No. 1, the difficulty generally surrounding elective surgeries with what our country is going through and also making sure that we’re doing this in a way that doesn’t put any extra burden on the public health system.'' Given the sensitivity of Bloom’s comment, it is difficult to understand why the Red Sox aren’t saying anything now. They won’t say whether the surgery has been performed.
