Fred was a manager and player for many years and has many interesting anecdotes to tell between innings. He has also organized a Knothole Club, and takes a decided interest in young up-and- coming ball players. * * RADIO LIFE * * CARL M. BIGSBY.

  • * Text Features
    The Boston Red Sox Friday, April 3, 2020 * The Boston Globe Here are the best ballplayers I’ve covered, position by position Peter Abraham My first game as a beat writer was Aug. 6, 2002. The New York Mets played the Milwaukee Brewers at Miller Park and I was there working for the Journal News, a newspaper based in White Plains, N.Y. Two future Hall of Famers, Roberto Alomar and Mike Piazza, were in the lineup for the Mets that night. With Alomar on first base, Piazza homered off Ben Sheets in the top of the first inning and the Mets went on to win the game, 5-1. Looking up that box score led to this thought: Who are the best players I’ve covered in 18 years on the baseball beat? I had the Mets from 2002-05, the Yankees from 2006-09, and the Red Sox since 2010. For the purposes of this list, only players from those teams are eligible, and it’s based on how they played at the time I was covering the team. Here is my list: First base Mark Teixeira I covered one year of Mo Vaughn with the Mets when he was still good, and that was a lot of fun. But Teixeira had a .948 OPS for the Yankees in 2009 and finished second in the MVP voting for a World Series champion. He also won a Gold Glove. Mike Napoli had an outstanding 2013 season for the Sox. Adrian Gonzalez hit .321 with an .895 OPS in two seasons with the Sox.

  • Mark Belling's Brewers/Braves Walk of Fame Ballot
    Mark Belling’s Brewers/Braves Walk Of Fame Ballot I have long railed about the exclusion of many Milwaukee Braves and Brewers greats from what passes as the Milwaukee Baseball Hall of Fame, the Walk of Fame at Miller Park. The voting is done by local media and many of its members are young and uninformed, particularly those who work at local sports radio stations. If you are uninformed, you have no business voting. It took years, for example, for Lew Burdette, one of the six or seven greatest players in Milwaukee history, to make it. You need 65 percent of the votes to get in. These are the players already in: BRAVES: Hank Aaron, Eddie Mathews, John Quinn (general manager), Warren Spahn, Lew Burdette, Johnny Logan, Joe Adcock. BREWERS: Rollie Fingers, Paul Molitor, Robin Yoiunt, Cecil Cooper, Bud Selig, Harry Dalton (general manager), Bob Uecker, Jim Gantner, Gorman Thomas, Harvey Kuenn (manager), Don Money, Teddy Higuera, Geoff Jenkins. Here are my votes, in alphabetical order (Brewers first, then Braves), and a brief reason; JERRY AUGUSTINE He’s been part of the organization for a staggering 45 years, in one capacity or another. Besides, he’s my friend. MIKE CALDWELL He won 102 games for the Brewers over eight seasons and had arguably the greatest season ever by a Brewers starting pitcher when, in 1978, he went 22-9 with an unbelievable 23 complete games and an ERA of a miniscule 2.36. TED SIMMONS He’s in the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame for crying out loud. If you’re in the Hall of Fame, shouldn’t you be in the local Walk of Fame??? JIM SLATON He’s the Brewers’ all-time winningest pitcher, winning 117 games despite spending much of his career on losing teams.
