  • Marcano Trillo BASEBALL ARRIVES in VENEZUELA It Is Genera
    MANNY TRILLO. AN OILFIELD BRED MAJOR LEAGUE HERO Jesús “El Indio” Marcano Trillo BASEBALL ARRIVES IN VENEZUELA It is generally accepted that baseball was first played in 1839 at Cooperstown, New York, located in the northern part of the state. Later the game crossed the borders to Canada, Mexico and the neighboring islands where leagues were started. Venezuelans students attending American schools brought the game to Caracas, the capital city and an American by the name of William Phelps, owner of a department store in 1912 to Maracaibo by then a major hub of the oil industry where many Americans resided. Baseball caught on and several ballparks were built. Around the same time Venezuelan players began playing in the leagues in Mexico, Cuba and Puerto Rico. In 1939 a Venezuelan pitcher Alex Carrasquel became the first native to play major league baseball for the Washington Senators. In 1950 his nephew Chico Carrasquel became a star with the Chicago White Sox., in 1956 he was replaced by Luis Aparicio, so far the only Venezuelan to reach the Baseball Hall of Fame. Back in 1941 an important event highlighted Venezuela baseball when the National team won the World Amateur Championship in Havana beating Cuba in the final game. Upon their return home the players were welcomed as heroes at the Caracas seaport and thus baseball became Venezuela's unquestionable main sport. Years later then many Venezuelans have been active stars in most of the MLB teams. Besides Aparicio names like Vizquel, Johann Santana, Galarraga, Cabrera, Altuve and Trillo, the subject of this story.

  • 09-23-2009 Suzuki Wins Catfish Award
    OAKLAND ATHLETICS Media Release Oakland Athletics Baseball Company h 7000 Coliseum Way h Oakland, CA 94621 510-638-4900 h Public Relations Facsimile 510-562-1633 h www.oaklandathletics.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: September 23, 2009 Kurt Suzuki Recipient of Jim “Catfish” Hunter Award Award is Given Annually to A’s Player in Memory of Hall of Fame Pitcher OAKLAND, Calif. – Catcher Kurt Suzuki has been named the recipient of the 2009 Jim “Catfish” Hunter Award, which honors an A’s player whose play on the field and conduct in the clubhouse best exemplifies the courageous, competitive and inspirational spirit demonstrated by the late Hall of Fame pitcher. The award is voted upon by Oakland A’s players and coaches. Suzuki, completing his second full season with Oakland, is batting .270 with 14 home runs and leads the team in doubles (35) and runs batted in (81) this year. Regarded as one of the American League’s top backstops, the 25- year-old Cal State Fullerton product leads all AL catchers in games played (127) and games started (124), innings caught (1107.1), putouts (864) and total chances (931), ranks second in assists (62) and fourth in fielding percentage (.995). If he continues on his current pace, he will become the first catcher in Oakland A’s history to lead his team in RBI and only the second catcher to accomplish that feat in franchise history (Frankie Hayes drove in a team-best 78 runs for the Philadelphia Athletics in 1944). Beyond his productivity at the plate, the 5-11, 200-pound Suzuki has also gained a defensive reputation as one of the game’s most sure-handed receivers and adept handler of pitchers.
