I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

The Cor- September 26, 1954 sairs enter their Sunday afternoon game with the Brooklyn Ebbetts Field, Brooklyn, N.Y. Dodgers a full 43 games behind the National League champion New York Giants. Mired in a 2-for-25 slump with only one extra base hit in his pre- vious nine games, Allie begins the season finale against Dodg- ers’ rookie sensation Karl Spooner with a .201 batting average. Allie is hitless in four at bats against Spooner when he flies out to left fielder Sandy Amoros in the eighth inning in what turns out to be his final at bat as a major leaguer. The F7 drops his batting average for the season and his career to .199 (.19856 to be exact). A hit in any one of his four at bats that afternoon would have enabled Allie to finish above the .200 mark. The Statesville, North Carolina, native opens the season in a slump and pretty much stays there the entire summer. Allie fin- ishes April with only eight hits in 49 at bats for a .163 average. On May 4, Allie is hitting only .161, and has committed five errors at shortstop when he is benched in favor of 28-year- old WWII veteran Dick Cole. Allie returns to the starting line two weeks later and promptly goes 5-for-12 lifting his average to an even .200.

  • 1962 Minnesota Twins Media Guide
    MINNESOTA TWINS METROPOLITAN STADIUM - BLOOMINGTON, MINNESOTA /eepreieniin the AMERICAN LEAGUE __flfl I/ic Upper l?ic/we1 The Name... The name of this baseball club is Minnesota Twins. It is unique, as the only major league baseball team named after a state instead of a city. The reason unlike all other teams, this one represents more than one city. It, in fact, represents a state and a region, Minnesota and the Upper Midwest, in the American League. A survey last year drama- tized the vastness of the Minnesota Twins market with the revelation that up to 47 per cent of the fans at weekend games came from beyond the metropolitan area surrounding the stadium. The nickname, Twins, is in honor of the two largest cities in the Upper Midwest, the Twin Cities of Minne- apolis and St. Paul. The Place... The home stadium of the Twins is Metropolitan Stadium, located in Bloomington, the fourth largest city in the state of Minnesota. Bloomington's popu- lation is in excess of 50,000. Bloomington is in Hen- nepin County and the stadium is approximately 10 miles from the hearts of Minneapolis (Hennepin County) and St. Paul (Ramsey County). Bloomington has no common boundary with either of the Twin Cities. Club Records Because of the transfer of the old Washington Senators to Minnesota in October, 1960, and the creation of a completely new franchise in the Na- tion's Capital, there has been some confusion over the listing of All-Time Club records. In this booklet, All-Time Club records include those of the Wash- ington American League Baseball Club from 1901 through 1960, and those of the 1961 Minnesota Twins, a continuation of the Washington American League Baseball Club.

    MINNESOTA TWINS BASEBALL CLUB METROPOLITAN STADIUM HOME OF MINNESOTA TWINS /EprP.1n/inf/ /I , AMERICAN LEAGUE _j1,, i'; , Upp er /'ZIweoi Year of the Great Confluence For the big-league starved fans of the Upper Midwest, the Big Day came on October 26, 1 9 d6a0t,e of the transfer of the American League Senators from Washington to the Minneapolis and St. Paul territory, and the merger of three proud baseball traditions. For their new fans to gloat about, the renamed Minnesota Twins brought with them three pennants won in Washington, in 1924, '25 and '33, and a world championship in 1924. Now, their new boosters could claim a share of such Senator greats as Clark C. (Old Fox) Griffith, Wolter (Big Train) Johnson, Joe Cronin, Lean (Goose) Goslin, Clyde (Deerfoot) Milan, Ed Delahanty, James (Mickey) Vernon, Roy Sievers, and others. Reciprocally, the Twins could now absorb the glories of 18 American Asso- ciation pennants - nine won by St. Paul and nine by Minneapolis - in 59 seasons. They could be reminded of the tremendous pennant burst by St. Paul in 1920, with the Saints winning 115, losing only 49, posting a .701 percentage, and running away from Joe McCarthy's second-place Louisville Colonels by 28 1/2 games. Mike Kelley, the American Association's grand old man, managed that one and four other Saints flag winners before buying the Minneapolis club and putting together three more championship combinations. The pattern for winning boll in St. Paul was set early, in the first year of minor league ball, in fact.

  • Mobile Baseball, 1951-1962
    Transcribed Pages from the Charles Dickson Papers Box 3 Folder 5: Mobile Baseball 1951-1962 356. Mobile Register April 4 – 1951 Boston Braves vs. Brooklyn Dodgers In the only major league exhibition game carded at Mobile this season, the two National League clubs waged a three-hour-and-five-minute marathon that saw 18 hits, 18 runs, three errors, and 20 free tickets to first by a battery of nine pitchers. The final result of the game was a score of 10 to 8 in favor of “Lippy” Leo Durocher’s Brooklyn Dodgers against Billy Southworth’s Boston Braves. The Mobile fans had the pleasure of seeing Eddie Stanky in action on second base for the Brooklyn Dodgers. (TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE: SEVERAL INDEPENDENT SOURCES CONFIRMED THAT DUROCHER WAS NOT THE MANAGER OF THE DODGERS IN 1951; THE DODGERS WERE MANAGED BY CHUCK DRESSEN. DUROCHER WAS THEN MANAGER OF THE NEW YORK GIANTS) Clyde King King’s contract purchased from Montreal could help the Brooklyn Dodgers considerably. Clyde King is not exactly a newcomer to the Dodgers. He appeared on the team as a left- handed pitcher in 1944, 1945, and 1949, but lacked the required speed. He’s smart, though, and has control. King formerly played with the Mobile Bears. April 5 – 1951 John Hall Hall will be back with the Mobile Bears during the 1951 season after three seasons. Few fans realize that in the fall of 1947, Branch Rickey could have sold Hall for exactly $100,000. That was the offering price of the young rookie who came out of nowhere to set the Southern Assn.
