“The Royals of Sir Cedric” by Steve Treder of the Hardball Times December 21, 2004
“The Royals of Sir Cedric” by Steve Treder of The Hardball Times December 21, 2004 At its inception, the most successful expansion franchise in pre-free agency baseball history didn’t impress many observers. The Kansas City Royals devoted most of their expansion draft picks to unproven young players, in distinct contrast to the approach taken by their companion A.L. expansion team, the Seattle Pilots. Take a look at the first ten choices of each club, noting each player’s age and major league experience as of the October 15, 1968 draft: Royals: Player Age ML Seasons ML Experience 1. Roger Nelson 24 2 78 innings 2. Joe Foy 25 3 1,515 at-bats 3. Jim Rooker 26 1 5 innings 4. Joe Keough 22 1 98 at-bats 5. Steve Jones 27 2 36 innings 6. Jon Warden 22 1 37 innings 7. Ellie Rodriguez 22 1 24 at-bats 8. Dave Morehead 25 6 665 innings 9. Mike Fiore 24 1 19 at-bats 10.

Conquering Life's Curves
Conquering Life's Curves By Lou Parrotta I just finished reading a terrific baseball memoir that turned out to be much more than what life is like for a ballplayer as they rise through the ranks of the minor leagues all the way up to "the show." No, this book contains dozens of stories of how baseball was just one facet of what eventually became an inspiring life. The book, Conquering Life's Curves, written by former New York Met and Kansas City Royal Ed Hearn, begins as any autobiography does. It takes the reader through Hearn's early days growing up with a dad who pushed him to excel and the successes he achieved while in high school. It talks of how the Philadelphia Phillies recruited and signed him as a result of that success, and then his voyage through the minors, until being traded to the New York Mets to become a back up to future Hall-of-Famer Gary Carter. The story reaches one of its first peaks when Hearn tells of the magical 1986 World Championship season the Mets had and how he received a World Series ring for his efforts. At the time he thought that would be his greatest achievement in life Boy, was he wrong. After being traded to the Kansas City Royals following the 1986 season, in a deal that would send David Cone to the Mets and start Cone on his magical baseball ride, Hearn experienced some shoulder problems. He was never really the same again. After surgery and rehabilitation, Hearn tried to resurrect his career only to fail.

Heroes and Rallies Baseball
Heroes and Rallies Baseball Setup Pick two teams to go head to head, and fill out your lineups on the scoresheet. Each team receives 8 skill assignments to give to individual players. All of the skill assignments listed below must be used within your starting lineup for a total of 8. A player may possess two assignments if you wish. Rate your lineup by placing the appropriate notation beside a player’s name on the scoresheet. 1) star hitter (H) 2) star slugger (S) 3) star runner (R) 4) star fielder (F) 5) poor hitter (H-) 6) weak hitter (S-) 7) slow runner (R-) 8) poor fielder (F-) Once a player has a skill assignment, he cannot transfer it to another player. There is one additional skill assignment available for an ace pitcher (X). You may, however, choose not to start one. Make any pitcher a poor hitter as well (H-), so there will be two poor hitters if a pitcher is in the lineup. Game Play Roll the dice for each player who comes up to bat, reading the colored die first and the white die second. If a result occurs on the Batting chart which displays an image of a ballplayer, the inning is considered finished with no further scoring. Draw an X in the box on the scoresheet representing the current hitter’s at-bat. When his team next comes up to bat, the next player in the lineup will hit. If the color of a chart result corresponds to the color of the skill assignment of the player who is currently up to bat, the result changes to the one shown on the bottom of the Batting chart.

TEACHING THE TOOLS OF HITTING ENDORSEMENTS From Baseball Professionals: “Les does a great job keeping the game in perspective: Kids and fun frst.
