SABR Digital Library: The SABR Book of Umpires and Umpiring

Make the right call and add this new baseball book from the SABR Digital Library to your collection:

The SABR Book on Umpires and Umpiring
Edited by Larry R. Gerlach and Bill Nowlin
Associate editors: Dennis Bingham and Len Levin
ISBN (paperback): 978-1-943816-45-3, $21.95
ISBN (e-book): 978-1-943816-44-6, $9.99
8.5 x 11″, 484 pages

This nearly 500-page book on umpires and umpiring is the collaborative work of 34 members of the Society for American Baseball Research. It is, in effect, a companion book to another SABR title, Can He Play? A Look at Baseball Scouts and their Profession, edited by Jim Sandoval and Bill Nowlin.

The SABR Book on Umpires and Umpiring includes biographies of all the umpires in the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, other notable arbiters, essays about professional female umpires, umpiring in the Negro Leagues, explorations of the baseball rules, umpire equipment, and much more.  

During the course of working on The SABR Book of Umpires and Umpiring, interviews were conducted with 56 major league umpires currently serving, former umpires, supervisors and those involved in umpire administration, and others whose jobs cause them to interact with umpires. It is our hope that we have helped shed light on the umpiring profession past and present, the work involved on the field, and the arduous challenges and sacrifices it takes over a large number of years to become an umpire at the top of the profession. We have tried to look at the occupation of umpiring from many different angles. No one book can cover all facets of the job, but we hope this book had touched on enough to help give readers a fuller appreciation of the game of baseball and those charged with the integrity of the game.

Contributors include: David W. Anderson, Mark Armour, Perry Barber, John Behrend, Dennis Bingham, Alan Cohen, Reynaldo Cruz, Kevin Cuddihy, Reid Duffy, Rob Edelman, Eric Frost, Larry Gerlach, Dennis Goodman, Leslie Heaphy, Harold V. Higham, Joanne Hulbert, Bob Hurte, Gil Imber, Chuck Johnson, Rodney Johnson, Stephen Johnson III, Bob LeMoine, Len Levin, Hank Levy, Bob Luke, Shaun McCready, Clark G. “Red” Merchant, Brian Mills, Bill Nowlin, Albert Piacente, Bill Pruden, David Vincent, Bob Webster, Chris Williams, and Herb Wilson.

Glenn Stout’s The Selling of the Babe wins 2017 Larry Ritter Book Award

A well-researched and myth-busting look at the most consequential player transaction in baseball history has earned the 2017 Larry Ritter Book Award. Veteran baseball historian Glenn Stout has been named to receive the award for the second time for The Selling of the Babe: The Deal That Changed Baseball and Created a Legend (Thomas Dunne Books, St. Martin’s Press).

The award is granted annually by SABR’s Deadball Era Committee to the author of the best book about baseball between 1901 and 1919 published during the previous calendar year. The winner’s work must demonstrate original research or analysis, a fresh perspective, compelling thesis, impressive insight, accuracy, and clear, graceful prose.

Stout previously won the award in 2012 for Fenway 1912: The Birth of a Ballpark, a Championship Season, and Fenway’s Remarkable First Year.

Conferred annually since 2002, this year’s Ritter Award will be formally presented at the Deadball Era Committee meeting at SABR 47 in New York.

SABR’s The Baseball Index relaunched at baseballindex.org

The Baseball Index (TBI) is an ongoing project of the Society for American Baseball Research to catalog the entirety of baseball literature, from the earliest references to the present day. The index is designed to help baseball researchers find materials that advance their work.

Due to a server failure in the fall of 2015, the old TBI website crashed permanently and the search functionality had to be rebuilt. The new site is now available for all baseball researchers to use at baseballindex.org.

You can use TBI to find bibliographic data (citations) for more than 250,000 books, articles, song sheets, yearbooks, advertisements, films, cartoons, poems, media guides, cartoons, and more. See the Frequently Asked Questions for tips on how to use the new baseballindex.org site, viewing and exporting your search results, and getting the most out of the TBI database.

3 new SABR biographies published

Armour, Levitt update, expand landmark study on Baseball Demographics, 1947-2016

As we approach Jackie Robinson Day next week, SABR members Mark Armour and Dan Levitt have updated and expanded their landmark study on player demographics in Major League Baseball since 1947.

This project is a continuation of the authors’ efforts to numerically define the spread of integration in the years after Jackie Robinson made his major-league debut with the Brooklyn Dodgers. This research was originally presented at the 2007 SABR convention in St. Louis and in the Fall 2007 Baseball Research Journal, and then updated in 2012 at the SABR BioProject.

In recent years there has been increased attention on the obvious decline of African Americans in the major leagues. The downward trend is present at all positions, although the overall decline has been exacerbated by the increased share of roster spots being allocated to pitchers and catchers. During this same period, the share of both Asians and Latinos has increased markedly, keeping the major leagues as diverse as it has ever been.

Before this study was published, accurate data on baseball demographics back to 1947 was not in a place that was easy to find. The updated article also takes a look at the effects of roster construction, player value, and other factors in the integration of baseball.

Click here to read the updated article, “Baseball Demographics, 1947-2016,” at the SABR BioProject. 

1871-75 Boston Red Stockings biographies now posted online

In SABR’s Boston’s First Nine: The 1871-75 Boston Red Stockings, edited by Bob LeMoine and Bill Nowlin and published in 2016, we focused on the first great dynasty in professional baseball. The Red Stockings won four consecutive pennants in the old National Association, considered by many to be baseball’s first major league.

Boston’s First Nine includes biographies of all 22 players who played on the team in those years — including five future Hall of Famers, Jim O’Rourke, Al Spalding, Deacon White, George Wright, and Harry Wright — along with fascinating stories of their games, the seasons, the tours of Canada and even England and Ireland, where they took on some of the better cricket players of the British Isles, and beat them, too.

The SABR BioProject biographies that appeared in Boston’s First Nine can now be read online at: http://sabr.org/category/completed-book-projects/1871-75-boston-red-stockings

You can also download the e-book for free or purchase the paperback edition at 50% off by clicking here. SABR members can download all SABR Digital Library e-books for free at SABR.org/ebooks.

Former SABR President Dick Beverage elected to Pacific Coast League Hall of Fame

Former SABR President Dick Beverage has been elected to the Pacific Coast League Hall of Fame, along with former Oakland Oaks star Les Scarsella.

Beverage was the founder and president of the PCL Historical Society from its inception in 1987 through 2016 and remains active in the organization. While the Society was originally established to honor the early greats of the PCL, it has since recognized players from all eras. At its peak, the PCLHS had over 700 members, many of whom were former ballplayers.

The Nebraska native’s illustrious career spans beyond the PCL. Beverage also served 13 years on SABR’s Board of Directors, including as president from 2003 to 2009. Beverage was honored with the Bob Davids Award in 2013, SABR’s highest honor. He is the author of more than a dozen articles and four books on the Pacific Coast League, including The Los Angeles Angels of the Pacific Coast League: A History, 1903-1957; The Hollywood Stars; and Hollywood Stars Baseball in Movieland, 1926-1957. His work sparked the interest of many fans and prompted the creation of the PCLHS.
