Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tulsa's longest relationship with any professional sport has been with baseball. And that love affair with its minor league teams has endured its share of peaks and valleys, of passionate embraces, periods of frustration and despair and joyous celebrations. Baseball and Tulsa are currently living "happily ever after" with record-setting season attendance figures, more frequent appearances in postseason playoffs, having one of the finest stadiums on the Double-A level and its new partnership with one of baseball's most prestigious organizations, the Los Angeles Dodgers. Ten major league teams, from powerhouses such as the Dodgers and St. Louis Cardinals to the woeful St. Louis Browns, have placed developmental teams in Tulsa with varying degrees of success. This book tells the stories of not only the men who wore the uniforms of Tulsa's professional baseball teams but also of opposing players along with others who came through town and left their mark on the sport, for better or for worse. You can read about ... How a crude invention by the manager of the 1966 Tulsa Oilers opened up baseball to be played and enjoyed by young boys and girls around the world. How a fan got fed up with constant booing from others nearby and his response was a yell that became a battle cry for Tulsa baseball fans. How the 1921 Oilers and their home stadium were involved in one of America's darkest hours, the Tulsa Race Massacre. What happened when future Hall of Fame players and managers visited the Oil Capital of the World for exhibition games. How the Tulsa Drillers were the stepping stone for superstars with the Texas Rangers, Colorado Rockies and Los Angeles Dodgers. Members of the National Baseball Hall of Fame with connections to Tulsa. And how the 1966 Oilers lost nine games in a row and, incredibly, strengthened its hold on first place.

Download or read book A View from the Dugout written by Roger G Whitaker and published by . This book was released on 2022-01-03 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the early 1900's, the University of Tulsa had a baseball team, until it dropped the sport in 1980. Year by year the players and coaches built the program into an elite program that was consistently recognized nationally in the top 10 rankings with frequent rankings of number one in the nation. As baseball players always say, "What is said and happens in the dugout, stays in the dugout." The 1969 team became Tulsa University's first men's sport to compete for a national championship by playing in the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska. They finished runner-up to Arizona State. The team returned back to the College World Series in 1971, finishing third. But that was only one chapter in the amazing story of players and coaches that built a program that "feared no opponent and expected to win every game." On the cover, "The View from the Dugout" is the chronicles of the history of the Tulsa University baseball program as told by the former players, news journalist, and friends that experienced "The Glory Days of TU Baseball."
Book Synopsis If You Build It, Will They Come? by : Ryan Elaine Nowlin
Download or read book If You Build It, Will They Come? written by Ryan Elaine Nowlin and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Abstract: For my master's thesis in Architecture/Urban Studies, I am researching the design and programming of a new ballpark for the Tulsa Drillers baseball organization. I chose this topic because I want to investigate the feasibility of building a new stadium for minor league baseball in Tulsa, Oklahoma in order to increase the number of Tulsa Driller tickets sold each season because more ticket sales will provide more tax dollars for the city's future growth, development and improvement. A new stadium would also increase tourism in Tulsa, bringing the city more sales tax revenue. My goals in researching ballpark design are to select an appropriate site, develop a preliminary design program and produce a schematic design, which could be used for marketing purposes in the future. I plan to sped the first semester researching possible sites and talking with the staff of the Tulsa Drillers to establish the criteria for the ballpark program. The second semester will be spent coming up with a preliminary design for the ballpark and finalizing the design program."--Page 1.

Book Synopsis Baseball Injuries by : W. Laurence Coker, M.D.
Download or read book Baseball Injuries written by W. Laurence Coker, M.D. and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-03-21 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In baseball, injuries to players fall into two main categories: overuse and traumatic. Over 162 games, repetitive pitching and batting motions and the stress of base running can damage joints, bones, and soft tissues, making overuse injuries the most common. Traumatic injuries like beanings, sliding injuries, and concussions, while less frequent, add to the DL list each year. This work explores the various types of injuries in baseball and provides case studies of individual player injuries to demonstrate the cause of injuries, the different treatment options, and the effect of injuries on a player's career. Throughout, discussions show the link between injuries and innovations in the game, like the batting helmet and padded outfield walls, and innovations in medicine, such as Tommy John surgery.

Book Synopsis Baseball in Portsmouth, Virginia by : Clay Shampoe
Download or read book Baseball in Portsmouth, Virginia written by Clay Shampoe and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1895 until 1969, the city of Portsmouth, Virginia, fielded a professional minor league team. Fans flocked to see the Truckers, Cubs, Merrimacs, and Tides as they battled opponents on the dirt and grass of local diamonds. Many locals are surprised to discover that such renowned ballplayers as Pie Traynor, Hack Wilson, Eddie Stanky, and Harry "The Cat" Breechen got their start in Portsmouth. In 1933, Negro League legend Buck Leonard first played for the Portsmouth Revels and later returned to briefly star with the 1953 Merrimacs, his only opportunity to play integrated ball during his storied career. A number of former big-name players guided the team from the bench including Tony Lazzeri, Jimmie Foxx, and Pepper Martin to name a few. The images in this pictorial volume showcase only a fragment of the vast chronology of baseball as it was played in Portsmouth over the years. Yet their visual appeal and historical representation of the game allow the reader to experience and recall what it was once like to have the National Pastime as an integral part of the city.
