Brandmeyer: Baseball and the American Dream: A Conversation With Al Lopez BASEBALL AND THE AMERICAN DREAM: A CONVERSATION WITH AL LOPEZ by Gerard A. Brandmeyer Al Lopez occupies a special niche in the history of Tampa. To his surprise, Lopez became a much heralded symbol of his native Ybor City community. He did this by achieving prominence in major league baseball in a professional career that spanned forty-five years, 1925-69, with thirty-six of these years spent at the major league level first as player and later as manager. The highlights of Lopez’s career are a reflection of the era and the man. At the tender age of sixteen, and therefore technically ineligible to bind himself by contract, Lopez was coaxed nonetheless into signing with the neighborhood Tampa Smokers, forerunner of the modern day Tarpons of the Florida State League.

You can see what they saw. You can picture the old man who sold deviled crabs at the gate, the gamblers who shouted from the stands that they had ten dollars at stake on your next play. If you stand still long enough on some of Tampa’s baseball fields, you can hear the crowds cheering, or, because nobody is all that polite in the ball field, booing. And if you try, you can reach back to the days of El Señor, Al Lopez, the city’s first Hall of Famer, and imagine the fantasies he fired in young men who wanted to do what he did, some of whom succeeded beyond what they ever dreamed.

  • Chet Covington
    Chet Covington, “Chesty the Troublesome One” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com Chester Rogers “Chet” Covington begins his professional athletic career as a teenage boxer in his home state of Illinois; 24 years later he ends it as a 42-year-old pitcher for the Fort Lauderdale Lions of the Florida International (B) League. Covington is best remembered for a contentious personality that results in him pitching for 21 teams in nine different leagues over a 15-year career, and a durable left arm that allows him to throw nearly 3,000 innings and nets him 221 career victories. Nicknamed “Chesty” for his imposing physical dimensions, Covington will win 20 or more games six times, lead four leagues in ERA, three in strikeouts and three in wins ... in 1943, he fashions the first perfect game in Eastern League history, pitches seven games in 17 days for the Scranton Miners and is named the Minor League Player of the Year by The Sporting News.
