Return of the TRACERS...

So, I’ve been investigating old, somewhat far-fetched baseball stories for 35 years.

That’s a long time, huh.

I began in 1989, shortly after I started working for Bill James. We didn’t have Retrosheet or Baseball-Reference.com in 1989. So I spent many dozens of hours with my nose buried in scratchy microfilm of old newspapers. Some years later I wrote a whole book of my own, tracking down a bunch more old stories. This was easier, since by then we did have Baseball-Reference.com and Retrosheet.

That book came out nearly 16 years ago, and I haven’t researched a single story since then (that I can recall, anyway). But there’s an endless supply of the things, and I do run across them during my recreational reading. I suppose it was just a matter of time until I got the yen, again.

Just recently I discovered that Ralph Terry wrote an autobiography, which was published in 2016 (Terry passed away in 2022). I pay fairly close attention to these things, but so many old ballplayers publish books with small publishers that it’s easy to miss them. Anyway, I found a cheap used copy and ordered it.

Terry’s book is pretty good, better than most in the genre. There’s a lot of padding—generous leading and a huge number of photos sprinkled throughout—and this 243-page book could have been easily formatted within 180 or so. So despite the page count, it’s a short book … and also engagingly written (presumably thanks to co-author John Wooley), so I finished reading the morning after I started.

In many ways, Ralph Terry was your typical MLB pitcher: blessed with tremendous athletic talent, excelled in multiple sports over the years, married a beautiful stewardess, and fought with management over money. But he also took college classes during his off-seasons for a number of years, and how many other ex-ballplayers have referenced Carl Jung and Alfred Adler in their memoirs?

Terry started his career with the Yankees, but before long was traded to the Kansas City A’s. That led him to off-season classes at University of Kansas City (soon to become University of Missouri—Kansas City). There, a couple of professors, Neil Warshay and Bob Neal, cut Terry some slack because … well, because he was a ballplayer and they were fans. Terry:

In 1960, after I was back with the Yankees, we were coming into Kansas City to play the A’s early in the season, and I told Casey about my two professors. “They’re big baseball fans,” I said, “and they’d love to meet you, especially since you’re one of their grads.” “Okay,” Casey told me. “Have them meet me up at the clubhouse about 4:30, before batting practice.” The visitor’s clubhouse at Municipal Stadium was over behind third base. So I got hold of the two professors, and we met before going in to see Casey. As it turned out, Dr. Warshay had put together a lineup he thought Casey might want to see. The major difference was that he had Mickey batting second instead of third, which was his usual spot. The idea was that maybe he’d get an extra at-bat that way. Gil McDougald, our usual second-place hitter at the time, dropped to seventh in Dr. Warshay’s scheme. The rest of his lineup was fairly orthodox. We went in, and Casey regaled us with tales of the old days for a while. Then, I said to Casey, “Case, Neil here’s got a lineup that he thinks you ought to use." Only Casey could see my face, and I rolled my eyes as I spoke. “Is that right?” he asked. “Well, let’s see what you’ve got there, Neil.” Dr. Warshay reached in his pocket and pulled out this little slip of paper like it was the secret to the atomic bomb. He passed it on to Casey, who studied it for a few moments. “Say, that’s a great lineup,” he said. “I’ll use it tonight.” He did, too. In fact, he had Mickey batting second not only in our two games in [Kansas City’s] Municipal Stadium, but also against the Tigers and Orioles and Senators. And even though Mickey started out in his new spot going 0 for 18, Casey didn’t move him back down to third for good until early June.

In all of that, there’s one verifiable fact. I’ll get to that in a minute.

First, though: Did Mantle bat second in 1960? And would this have been notable and unusual?

Yes, yes, and yes.

As a rookie in 1951, Mantle batted second 20 times, mostly in the latter half of May and then a few times in August and September after being recalled from Kansas City.

In 1952, he made eight scattered appearances as the #2 hitter in the lineup.

In 1953, none.

In 1954, once. With a .175 batting average in his first 11 games, Mantle batted second on the 1st of May. He singled once and struck out twice in four at-bats, the Yankees lost 10-2, and he batted almost exclusively third the rest of the season.

From 1955 through ’59, Mickey never batted second.

And then in 1960, he started 18 games in the #2 slot.

Did Mantle start batting second during a series in Kansas City?

He did not. He started batting second on May 12 in New York, against Cleveland.

Had the Yankees visited Kansas City before then, with Professor Warshay merely planting a seed in Stengel’s mind?

They had not. The Yankees had played only two road series, opening their season in Boston, and a bit later visiting Baltimore. The Yankees did host Kansas City just a few days before the Cleveland series, May 6 and 7. So it’s possible that Terry’s academic friends visited New York and met with Stengel then. It doesn’t match Terry’s recollection but it’s … possible.

Did Mantle start out 0 for 18 as the #2 hitter?

He did not. He started out 3 for 18 with five walks; the three hits were a triple and two home runs.

Overall, in 18 games as the Yankees’ #2 hitter, Mantle batted just .188 but his OBP (.388) and Slugging (.557) matched almost exactly his season percentages.

Okay, here’s the verifiable fact I promised before: as Terry recalled, Stengel did move Mantle back to third, for good, in early June.

In a doubleheader against Washington on the 30th, Hector López started both games in the #2 slot, with Mantle third. On May 31 and June 1 in Baltimore, Mantle again batted second. The Yankees lost both games. López went back in the second slot on June 2, and Mantle almost never batted second again in his career (not counting pinch-hitting jobs). From 1961 through ’63 he batted cleanup; Stengel was gone, of course, replaced by the far less creative Ralph Houk. In ’64 he batted fourth and third; in ’65, third and fourth; and from ’66 through ’68 he nearly always batted third.

Okay, this isn’t so tidy as all that. In the middle of the ’68 season, for some reason Mantle and Roy White swapped lineup slots for eight games, Mickey batting second and White third. In 33 plate appearances, Mantle’s output consisted of six walks and three singles, and that was the end of that experiment.

As I said, Mantle batting second was notable. Here's Joseph Sheehan writing in the Times the morning after Mickey was going to start batting second:

Before the washout was announced, Manager Casey Stengel caused a stir by posting a revised Yankee batting order that listed Mickey Mantle in second place. Any Yankee is likely to bob up anywhere in a Stengel batting order, but rarely has the slugging Mantle been located elsewhere than in the preferred “power” positions: third, fourth, or fifth. The complete order read as follows: Tony Kubek, Mantle, Yogi Berra, Roger Maris, Bill Skowron, Elston Howard, Gil McDougald, Bobby Richardson and [pitcher] Duke Maas. As usual, Stengel had a ready explanation. “I made these changes for three reasons, as follows,” he began—and proceeded to list about thirty-three. Boiled down, Casey’s idea was to move all his best hitters as high as possible to increase the chances of “them getting those extra times at bat that win close games like we’ve been losing too many of lately.”

At that moment, the Yankees were 10-7 on the season. They’d just lost two straight games, 8-3 and 5-1. A couple of weeks earlier, they’d lost three straight by a combined four runs. Which must have been frustrating for Stengel, but doesn’t seem like something that would motivate a notable lineup change two weeks later.

Nevertheless, on May 12 Stengel went with that new lineup and stuck with it for five games. Afterward he moved around the guys in the middle, but kept Kubek and Mantle at the top, McDougald and Richardson at the bottom for 16 straight games, through the 29th.

The idea of getting more plate appearances for your best hitters would not have been foreign to Stengel. Back in 1956, Pirates manager Bobby Bragan wrote down a lineup that “defied every known law of the game… Bragan reasoned baseball lineups have conformed to the tradition of the days of the dead ball and now are archaic in the modern era. He’s been thinking of using his power at the top of the order, putting some men with strength at the bottom and placing the pitcher seventh.”

“My idea,” Bragan said, “is to have the best batter leading off, since he comes to bat more often. Thus the second best batter is second, third best batter third, and so on. The pitcher bats seventh because the eighth and ninth batters have a better chance of getting on base when the top of the order comes up.”

Bragan’s creativity and daring was admirable. It’s not clear that he thought everything through, though. For example, he initially made Frank Thomas his leadoff man, and on balance Thomas was probably just his second best hitter (behind Dale Long; this was a couple of years before Clemente hit his stride). More to the point, making small adjustments to the lineup creates minute changes in run production, while moving the pitcher to #7 means a significant increase in the number of at-bats for the pitchers.

Which doesn’t mean it was a bad idea. But Bragan didn’t have the analytical tools to really test his theory. He was mostly guessing, and after two weeks of batting his pitchers seventh and Bill Mazeroski ninth, he went back to the old-fashioned way. A decade later, he managed the Milwaukee Braves and never batted his pitchers seventh or Henry Aaron leadoff. He did pencil Eddie Mathews into the leadoff slot for a few goodly chunks of the 1964 schedule. So at least part of the dream did survive. Later Bragan reportedly said, "My biggest fault was that I didn't experiment enough."

Finally, a few more words about Terry’s book. As I said, I enjoyed it. But there’s a story later in the book about his salary negotiations with the Yankees after his tremendous 1962 season, and the details are just outlandish. What I think happened was that Terry got his years mixed up, describing the negotiations for maybe his 1959 contract rather than 1963? There’s simply no way that he earned only $10,000 (as he reports) after a ’62 season in which he went 23-12 with a 3.19 ERA and won Game 7 of the World Series.

Which does make me wonder about the other stories in the book.

ウィルヘルムの叫びは『スター・ウォーズ』をはじめとする多くのヒット映画や、テレビゲーム・テレビ番組などで使用されたことにより有名となった[1]。 誰かが、矢で刺される、爆発に巻き込まれる、転落するなどして死亡する際にしばしば用いられる。2008年までに217本の映画で使用されているとされ[2]、映画界におけるお約束となっている。 名称の由来は、1953年の西部劇映画『フェザー河の襲撃』の登場人物で、矢で射られるウィルヘルム二等兵にちなんでいる。その際に使われたのがこの素材の2回目の使用で、ワーナー・ブラザースの音響保管ライブラリーから使用された最初の例と考えられている[3]。 この叫び声の主については、「パープル・ピープル・イーター」などで知られる、歌手、俳優のシェブ・ウーリー（Sheb Wooley）だとされている[4][3]。 歴史[編集] 誕生[編集] 元々は、1951年の映画『遠い太鼓』のために収録された音響素材のなかのひとつとして生まれた[5]。エバーグレーズの沼地を兵士たちが通り、そのうちの1人がアリゲーターに噛まれて水中に引きずり込まれるシーンに使用されている。このシーンの叫び声は後から個別に収録されたもので、軽い痛みを与えた5つの悲鳴を掛け合わせたものである。このシーンの為に収録された悲鳴のうち4番・5番・6番は、このシーンの前の3人のインディアンが砦で撃たれる場面で使用されている。 復活[編集] ウィルヘルムの叫びは、音響監督のベン・バートによって復活した。元音源を発見した彼が、『スター・ウォーズ エピソード4/新たなる希望』に組み込んだのである。ルーク・スカイウォーカーが、デス・スターの上でストームトルーパーを撃つ際に使用されている。バートは、この音を「ウィルヘルムの叫び」と名付けた張本人でもある[6]。その後10年間、バートはジョージ・ルーカス、スティーヴン・スピルバーグらの作品等、彼の関わった多くの作品にウィルヘルムの叫びを組み込んだ（『インディ・ジョーンズ シリーズ』の全ての作品でウィルヘルムの叫びが使用されている）。これにより、他のサウンドデザイナーの間でもウィルヘルムの叫びはメジャーなものになった[1]。 その後、ウィルヘルムの叫びは映画にとどまらず、様々なテレビドラマや2010年に発売された『レッド・デッド・リデンプション』をはじめとするテレビゲーム等にも使用されてきた[7][8]。 オリジナル録音テープの再発見[編集] この効果音のオ���ジナル録音テープは長い間行方不明とされてきた。Mitch Costenという音響編集者がこのオリジナル録音テープを保管しており、彼のオフィスで何年も見つかることなくほこりを被っていた。それを引き継いだ南カリフォルニア大学のアーカイブからテープの入った箱を渡された、カルフォルニア芸術大学の研究者Craig Smithにより、ウィルヘルムの悲鳴のオリジナル録音テープが発見されたと、CBS Morningsが報じた[9]。 脚注[編集] [脚注の使い方] ^ a b Brooke Gladstone, Bob Garfield (30 December 2005).

Today’s compilation:

Elvira Presents Haunted Hits 1988 Novelty / Comedy / Pop-Rock / New Wave / Rock & Roll / Dance-Pop / Hard Rock

Getting in the festive spirit with this weird set of classic, spooky tunes that was presented by the one and only Elvira, whose persona answers the age-old question of, "what if Morticia Addams, but sex-crazed 80s Valley Girl?"

Now, judging by the album cover here, you might think that this CD was intended for adults, but, *essentially*—though not entirely—this is actually something you throw on for a kids' Halloween party. It has a lot of those totally inane 50s and 60s novelty songs on it that kids are bound to love and sing along to. But those same tunes are also bound to drive those kids' parents absolutely mad. Like, you know that Chipmunks' "walla-walla-bing-bang" song? That's not on here, but imagine a bunch of songs like that one, like Sheb Wooley's "Purple People Eater" or The Ran-Dells' "Martian Hop," taking up a sizable chunk of this CD. It’s fine to hear those songs every once in a while, but a bunch in an hour? Not desirable! Those tunes might've been viewed as silly, zany, and enjoyable 60-plus years ago, but they are downright grating, annoying, and not remotely funny anymore.

But for Elvira, this all makes sense in a way, since she earned her fame as the host of a TV show in LA that presented old B-movie horror flicks; sort of like a horror version of Mystery Science Theater 3000, but without the wisecracking silhouettes that provide commentary. Most of this CD consists of campy horror songs that came out in the same era as the movies she presented.

And it's really not all bad either; there's still some good Halloween fun here: "Monster Mash" the "Ghostbusters" theme, Screamin' Jay Hawkins' shock rock standard, "I Put a Spell on You," and even a song by the pioneering horror-goth-punk-trash-rockabilly band The Cramps. Plus, a pretty obscure tune that's a bit of a reach for a Halloween-themed album, but is nonetheless a nice and raucous late 50s R&B and rock & roll hybrid gem called "King Kong," by a guy named Big "T" Tyler.

But that handful of tunes unfortunately isn't enough to make this album worth your while.

P.S.: I put a big caveat up there when I said that this CD was for kids. It's only for kids if you *don't* put on the last song, Elvira's own "Full Moon," which campily showcases her horny horror schtick in a really bad, very 80s way.

P.P.S.: Some trivia! Here's the lady who plays Elvira (yes, Elvira's just a character), Cassandra Peterson, on the album cover for Tom Waits' 1976 album, Small Change, which came out before Peterson developed her famous persona.

In fact, she was actually a Vegas showgirl before she became Elvira. And she also had an uncredited role as a dancer in the 1971 James Bond film, Diamonds Are Forever, too! Such a unique career.

Highlights:

Bobby "Boris" Pickett - "Monster Mash" Ray Parker, Jr. - "Ghostbusters" The Marketts - "Out of Limits" Big "T" Tyler - "King Kong" Screamin' Jay Hawkins - "I Put a Spell on You" The Cramps - "I Was a Teenage Werewolf"

[redshift-13]

"[Ruth] Anderson thereafter largely abandoned acoustic instruments and devoted herself to electronics. Her work in the medium balances intelligence and intuition, distinguishing it from that of contemporaries like Milton Babbitt, James Tenney, and Kenneth Gaburo, who used technology to create music that was too fast, too dense, too precise for the human apparatus alone—a kind of alien sound. Though carefully constructed, Anderson’s pieces do not make their complexity obvious. She gives the material room to breathe, slowing the tape to a human speed and often using the human voice. One image or idea follows another, as in a conversation. Rarely are two sounds the same; repetition, she seemed to suggest, is a poor substitute for evolution."

Ches Smith - Minimalism, from Laugh Ash, out February 2, 2024 via Pyroclastic Records - really excited for this, 3 horns AND a string quartet in the group

Drummer, percussionist and composer Ches Smith collides a lifetime of eclectic influences on his startling, unpredictable new album Laugh Ash, out February 2, 2024 via Pyroclastic Records. James Brandon Lewis, Nate Wooley, Anna Webber, Shahzad Ismaily, Oscar Noriega, Shara Lunon, Jennifer Choi, Kyle Armbrust and Michael Nicolas join Smith on this breathtakingly original set of music. The album makes thrilling use of disorientation and juxtaposition: starkly beautiful chamber melodies coexist with synthetic rhythms, explosive bursts of improvisation with elusive song forms, austere ambience with thundering complexity.
