Players such as Roger Clemens, Houston Street and many more have made it to the MLB Program.'Take Me Out to the Ballgame' has become the national anthem of baseball. A baseball event that we call history is when Babe Ruth called his shots to hit a homerun. Here are some interesting facts: Prior to the 1930 American League season, and prior to the 1931 National League season, fly balls that bounced over or through the outfield fence were home runs!. Also baseball historian Bill Jenkinson estimates that Babe Ruth probably lost about 75 home runs because of the pre-1931 rule. Here is one example of a disallowed Ruthian blast that he cited based on newspaper reports of the day:
"On August 21,1920, Babe launched one far over the right field grandstand roof at the Polo Grounds. It was obviously fair when it left the park and Ruth proceeded to trot around the bases. When he arrived at home plate, the umpire disallowed the homer with the explanation that the ball had landed on foul ground somewhere out in Manhattan Field. Bob Uecer was a famous anouncer for baseball games and there is a statement that he would say "you'll need a visa to go find that ball". Baseball is an important part of history and Texas baseball history. Alexander Joy Cartwright was born on April 17, 1820 in the city of New York. Alexander Joy Cartwright was the founder of baseball. The first baseball game between two different teams was played on June 19, 1846 at Elysian Field in Hoboken, New Jersey. The two teams, the 'Knickerbockers' and the 'New York Nine,' played with Cartwright's 20 rules. It is likely that Cartwright picked some of his 20 rules based upon his previous experience in town ball play at Manhattan. Used to in Baseball if an umpire is unable to see whether a catch has been fairly made, he may confer with spectators and players. At the age of 72, Mr. Baseball, Alexander Cartwright died on July 12th, 1892. He was buried in Hawaii.
