HISTORY NASHVILLE BASEBALL HISTORY the 2019 Season Signifies the 42Nd Season for the Nashville Sounds
HISTORY NASHVILLE BASEBALL HISTORY The 2019 season signifies the 42nd season for the Nashville Sounds. It’s the 22nd season as a member of the 16- team Pacific Coast League, and the first as the Triple-A affiliate of the Texas Rangers. Despite the 42nd season as the Nashville Sounds, baseball’s roots in Nashville go back to the 19th Century. In fact, baseball has been played in Middle Tennessee since at least 1860, when the Republican Banner newspaper published a July 25th report on the game’s popularity the previous fall. During the Civil War, Union soldiers temporarily based here helped spread the game in the local community. Home field was a place known as the Sulphur Springs Bottom, a half-mile north of today’s state capitol. When the original Southern League was organized in 1885, Nashville was a charter city and games were played at Nashville’s Athletic Park, as the Sulphur Springs Bottom location came to be known. The city fielded several entries in the league over the next ten years -- the Americans (1885-86), the Blues (1887), the Tigers (1893-94), and the Seraphs (1895) -- but was unable to claim a pennant. When the Southern Association was formed in 1901, Athletic Park – which was later given the name Sulphur Dell by famed sportswriter Grantland Rice -- became the permanent home to the Nashville Volun- teers (or Vols, for short), who played there for the next 61 years. Under the guidance of manager Newt Fisher, the Nashville club won the SA’s first two pennants. The team, which was not known as the Vols until a “name the team” contest conducted prior to the 1908 season, continued to build a solid, loyal fan base. -

Rupe, 28, posted a 5.65 ERA and 1.54 WHIP in 14 1/3 major-league innings this season, and fared even worse at Norfolk, turning in a 7.07 ERA and 1.69 WHIP in 42 frames. Brandon Erbe's time with the Orioles may be nearing an end. The 23-year-old will be eligible for free agency if he's not added back to the 40-man roster between now and early November. Baltimore born and bred, Erbe signed out of third round of the ’05 draft and put Class A ball behind him by the end of the ’08 season. However, he's pitched just 165 innings in the past three seasons (including 4 2/3 this year), and he's coming off labrum surgery in ’10. -

Coming to America, Immigrants and Baseball
Coming to America Immigrants, Baseball and the Contributions of Foreign-Born Players to America’s Pastime By Stuart Anderson and L. Brian Andrew NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR AMERICAN POLICY OCTOBER 2006 NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR AMERICAN POLICY Page 2 Coming to America Executive Summary While politicians continue to debate immigration policies, there is little question among baseball fans that immigrants have positively transformed America’s pastime. In the first comprehensive study of baseball and immigration, the National Foundation for American Policy examined both historical records and 2006 rosters. The report finds the impact of foreign-born players on major league baseball is at an all-time high. The study concludes Americans have benefited from our nation’s openness toward skilled immigrant baseball players, just as the country has gained from the entry of other skilled foreign-born professionals. • In the American League in 2006, 7 of the top 9 batting averages belonged to foreign-born players, while the leading home run hitter (David Ortiz) and the two leaders in runs batted in (Ortiz and Justin Morneau) were foreign-born. In the National League, two of the top three hitters for average (Albert Pujols and Miguel Cabrera) and home runs (Pujols and Alfonso Soriano) were foreign-born. Dominican-born pitcher Johan Santana led the major leagues in strikeouts, earned run average and wins (tied at 19 with Chien-Ming Wang). • Foreign-born players accounted for 31 percent of the players selected for the 2006 All Star Game, higher than their proportion of 23 percent on major league active rosters. Seven of the 16 starting position players at the 2006 All Star Game – 44 percent – were foreign-born: David Ortiz, Vladimir Guerrero and Ichiro Suzuki started for the American League and Jason Bay, Edgar Renteria, Albert Pujols and Alfonso Soriano started for the National League.
