Abstract:
The New York Yankees donated their financial records to the National Baseball Hall of Fame. These records provide a rare glimpse into the business of professional team sports. I use these records to examine how the Yankees' management reacted to the Great Depression. Since the team possessed both price-setting power over ticket prices andmonopsony power over player salaries, how did the team adjust ticket prices and salaries in response to the falling incomes of its customers and general deflation of the early 1930s? How did the team's response differ from other teams in Major League Baseball?

Abstract:
This study examines both the general narratives of baseball in Taiwan and particularly New York Yankees-related narratives since Taiwanese player Chien-ming Wang joined the team in 2005. By reviewing newspaper coverage and TV ratings data, I argue that a nationalistic perspective was the undertone in the Taiwanese mass media; indeed, the media could define the Yankees as Taiwan’s vicarious national team or the “Evil Empire”, depending on Wang’s current relationship with the Yankees. However, with Wang’s departure from the Yankees, the Yankees have been removed from Taiwan’s nationalistic narratives and returned to being New York’s team. The idea of athletes connecting their homeland and the nation hosting the professional team seemed common and straightforward. However, as the relationship between athletes and their teams change, team-related national narratives can also change.

Abstract:
As a youngster, Art Rust, Jr., one of New York's first prominent black sportscasters, lived on St. Nicholas Avenue, a stone's throw equally from Minton's and Monroe's, the after-hours clubs where Charlie Parker and Thelonious Monk created bebop, and the Polo Grounds, home of the New York Giants. Rust remembered the day in the 1930s when “Billy the Cop,” just off duty, told Rust's father that Giant manager Bill Terry, the last National League player to hit over 400, complained to the precinct commander. Terry didn't want any “nigger cops” patrolling the Polo Grounds, at least not near the executive entrances. Almost twenty years later, in the early 1950s, George Weiss, the general manager of the New York Yankees, a team whose Ruthian dominance prevailed in the Stadium, built with intentional perversity within eyesight of the Polo Grounds just across the East River in the South Bronx, responded to charges that the Yankees had failed to sign black players. In private, Weiss said, “I will never allow a black man to wear a Yankee uniform. Boxholders from Westchester don't want that sort of crowd. They would be offended to have to sit with niggers.” Publicly, in the spring of 1952, he responded that the team had been looking long and hard for a black player, “good enough to make the Yankees.” Weiss's accuser, Jackie Robinson, then entering his sixth season with the Brooklyn Dodgers, rejoined, “Bullshit.”

Abstract:
The 1998 major league baseball season was filled with excitement as Mark McGwire of the Saint Louis Cardinals and Sammy Sosa of the Chicago Cubs battled to break Roger Maris's Major League single-season home-run mark. Maris, while playing for the New York Yankees, hit 61 home runs in 1961. Once McGwire and then Sosa broke Maris's record, the two continued also to score a big hit with fans, as many people tried to predict just how many home runs each would finally hit for the season.

Abstract:
Building on the growing literature of the spatial examination of criminality, this study examines the stability of crime related to mass gathering events over time. Specifically, we examine the impacts of baseball games on assault patterns in the Bronx and Queens, New York, using a nonparametric permutation approach to examine the spatial distribution of point patterns at the neighborhood level over multiple seasons. Findings demonstrate that Mets and Yankees game days have significant impact on the number of assaults when compared to a sample of similar non–game days providing further support for environmental criminological theories. Implications for practitioner use of the tool as well as its use as a method for researchers who seek to compare crime event patterns across several temporal bandwidths are discussed.

Abstract:
The arrival of a new summer collegiate baseball league franchise to a small central New York city was seen as an opportunity for health promotion. The initiative was set up to explore two overarching questions: (1) Are summer collegiate baseball events acceptable to local public health organizations as viable places for health promotion activities addressing local health issues? (2) Are summer collegiate baseball organizations amenable to health promotion activities built in to their fan and/or player experiences? Planning and implementation were guided by precede–proceed, social cognitive theory, social marketing, and diffusion of innovations constructs. Environmental changes were implemented to support healthy eating and nontobacco use by players and fans; four health awareness nights were implemented at home games corresponding to local public health priorities and included public service announcements, between inning quizzes, information dissemination at concession and team market locations, and special guests. Sales and fan feedback support mostly healthy concession offerings and a tobacco-free ballpark; postseason evaluations from team staff and public health partners support continuing the trials of this sports event as a venue for health promotion.

Abstract:
One of the strangest feuds on the internet is the battle between Universal and Disney loyalists. Based on scale, it’s a lot like fans of the Hartford Yard Goats hating the New York Yankees, but the Goats have shown a lot of promise in recent years. They hired a wizard back in 2010 and have risen fast after that. Think of them as a team full of top prospects with plenty of potential. Universal’s problem is that they didn’t get their start until 1990. They’re effectively an expansion team compared to Disney, who founded the theme park industry in 1955. To my mind, Universal has done a tremendous job in catching up over the past decade. In 2009, they had only 23.7 million guests. By 2017, that number had more than doubled to 49.5 million. Disney’s still tripled them with 150 million annual park visits, though.

The objective of this study is to explore the effect of “ace relievers” on the baseball team, including the pitcher’s personal performance and contribution to the team record. According to the statistics of relief pitchers’ performance, we established criteria for evaluating ace relievers. In this case study, we collected data regarding Mariano Rivera, a pitcher of the New York Yankees in the Major League Baseball (MLB), from the official websites of Entertainment and Sports Programming Network (ESPN) and MLB. The analysis results are shown below: (1) Taking the 2011 MLB season for example, Rivera was the relief pitcher presenting the best performance among all relievers of MLB. Regarding the 4 evaluation criteria, Rivera led the MLB in the strikeout-to-walk ratio (K/BB), walks plus hits per inning pitched (WHIP), earned run average (ERA), and saves (SV). Exhibiting extraordinary performance in regular and postseason games, Rivera was credited with 603 regular season SVs by 2011 and contributed averagely more than 40% win shares to the team, significantly influencing the team record. (2) After comparing the performance of Rivera with that of relief pitchers of other teams, the MLB’s ace relievers list comprises Mariano Rivera, Jonathan Papelbon and Joe Nathan. (3) Based on the relief pitchers’ performance between 2002 and 2011 shown on the MLB official website, this study proposed the performance criteria for ace relievers after data compilation and organization. An ace reliever must attain at least 37 or more SVs per year, exhibit an excellent capacity to control hits (K/BB) to be 4.5:1 or above, and have WHIP and ERA lower than 1 and 2.5, respectively. Rivera’s performance satisfied the criteria for an ace reliever.

Abstract:
Abstract By the time she was five years old, Donna Lopiano wanted to pitch for the New York Yankees. Far from an idle dream, Lopiano recalled growing up in Stamford, Connecticut, “on a street with 15 boys and one girl” where she prepared for her imagined future, throwing 500 pitches a day against the side of her parents’ garage. “By the time I was 10, I had developed a rising fastball and an impressive curve that would drop off the table, and I was hard at work on a Bob Turley drop,” noted Lopiano. So when it came time for Lopiano to take the ritual first step for an aspiring young baseball player—joining a Little League team—she was more than ready. Lopiano remembers well the Saturday morning she and her friends, all of them boys, went to tryouts. Everyone was nervous, but Lopiano had anticipated this day for years. She was enormously talented, and it soon became apparent that she was the most skilled player in tryouts. She was drafted the number one player. This didn’t surprise her because she knew—as did everyone else—that she was the best.

Abstract Imagine That John Doe, a white man screaming anti-Asian epithets, beats an Asian man with a baseball bat. Doe confesses that he dislikes Asian people, because he thinks they are responsible for his unemployment. Imagine further that Richard Roe, also a white man, beats an Asian man with a baseball bat, while screaming nonracist curses and obscenities. Roe explains that he was appalled and angered by the victim’s cheering for the Boston Red Sox and booing the New York Yankees. Both Doe and Roe are convicted of aggravated battery. Roe is sentenced to two years imprisonment, the usual sentence for aggravated battery. Doe is sentenced to seven years imprisonment, the judge explaining that his anti-Asian prejudice requires the severest possible sentence. Does Doe’s punishment violate the First Amendment? Civil libertarians, torn between commitments to equality and free speech, are divided on this question.

Abstract:
The pedagogy of “outlaw teaching” is presented as a way of bringing risk into the classroom, as Joyce encourages us to do. Reading Ulysses aloud is one way of getting students to become familiar with risk-taking, and some tongue-in-cheek guidelines for such a reading are presented. An extended example of the benefits of such an approach is given with a reading of the “Night Lessons” chapter of Finnegans Wake, as a baseball game between the Boston Red Sox and the St. Louis Cardinals, sometime prior to the selling of Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees. Issy, the writer of the footnotes in this chapter, is rearticulated through narrative voicing as a baseball announcer, and the section takes on new life through the admittedly strained analogy of an inning-by-inning analysis of 20 pages of Finnegans Wake. The value of the enterprise is in its method: the author is modeling an approach to centrifugal reading that transforms the Wake into a reading game.

Abstract:
This chapter opens with the Cooperstown myth, the fiction that baseball was invented in Cooperstown, New York. The myth, however, tells us something about the origins and the enduring ideas of baseball. Despite its development during the Industrial Revolution, baseball is the one major team sport that rejected the icon of industrialism – the clock. A baserunner, in fact, circles the bases counterclockwise, as though to subvert the passage of time. Baseball is also the quintessential immigrant game because it replicates the long odds facing immigrants. It’s the only game where the defense controls the ball, and it’s the object of the offensive player to disrupt the defense’s control of the ball. He’s outnumbered nine to one in that effort; there are only three islands of safety in that alien environment, and the greatest triumph is to return home.

Abstract:
Two professional soccer leagues began play in 1894. The American League of Professional Football was formed by baseball club owners in Boston, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, New York, Baltimore, and Washington DC. A rival league called the American Association of Professional Football (AAPF) had four teams in Philadelphia, Trenton, Newark, and Paterson, New Jersey. The chapter argues that baseball owners launched a soccer league because they wished to maintain control over professional team sports and viewed it as an additional revenue stream that would allow them to make money year-round. The motivations for launching the AAPF are less clear. Both competitions were failures, shutting down after just weeks, with only twenty-five games played. Ultimately the leagues flopped because of poor organization, low attendance, and higher than expected costs. The failed experiments of 1894 meant that a major, fully professional soccer league would not return to the United States until 1921.
