Backstop: A History of the Catcher and Sabermetric Ranking of 50 All-Time Greats $108.07 It’s often said that catcher is the most important, most demanding defensive position in baseball. This view explains why so many light-hitting catchers have enjoyed long?and by all accounts successful?major league careers. Yet arguments over the all-time greats invariably privilege offensive standouts, and even among these players batting statistics are more likely than fielding numbers to affect ranking. So what, historically, have been the expectations for major league catchers, and who stands as the greatest in a more balanced view of offensive and defensive contributions? In Part I of this book, the history of catching and catchers is discussed in detail, with attention to the most celebrated players of each era. In Part II, the author employs sabermetric formulas to rank the 50 greatest catchers since 1920, when changes to the rules, the parks, and the ball dramatically changed the way baseball was played. Also included is a chapter on catchers of the 19th century, deadball era, and Negro Leagues, whose career statistics are either incomplete, inaccurate, or produced under markedly different playing conditions and rules. |

Louisiana Hayride $45 On a Saturday night in 1948, Hank Williams stepped onto the stage of the Louisiana Hayride and sang Lovesick Blues. Up to that point, Williams’s yodeling style had been pigeon-holed as hillbilly music, cutting him off from the mainstream of popular music. Taking a chance on this untriedartist, the Hayride–a radio barn dance or country music variety show like the Grand Ole Opry–not only launched Williams’s career, but went on to launch the careers of well-known performers such as Jim Reeves, Webb Pierce, Kitty Wells, Johnny Cash, and Slim Whitman. Broadcast from Shreveport, Louisiana, the local station KWKH’s 50,000-watt signal reached listeners in over 28 states and lured them to packed performances of the Hayride’s road show. By tracing the dynamic history of the Hayride and its sponsoring station, ethnomusicologist Tracey Laird reveals thecritical role that this part of northwestern Louisiana played in the development of both country music and rock and roll. Delving into the past of this Red River city, she probes the vibrant historical, cultural, and social backdrop for its dynamic musical scene. Sitting between the Old South andthe West, this one-time frontier town provided an ideal setting for the cross-fertilization of musical styles. The scene was shaped by the region’s easy mobility, the presence of a legal red-light district from 1903-17, and musical interchanges between blacks and whites, who lived in closeproximity and in nearly equal numbers. The region nurtured such varied talents as Huddie Ledbetter, the king of the twelve-string guitar, and Jimmie Davis, the two term singing governor of Louisiana who penned You Are My Sunshine. Against the backdrop of the colorful history of Shreveport, the unique contribution of this radio barn dance is revealed. Radio shaped musical tastes, and the Hayride’s frontier-spirit producers took risks with artists whose reputations may have been shaky or whose styles did not neatly fit |
