Birdie Tebbetts, "I'd Rather Catch."(347 clicks)
Atlantic Monthly, September, 1949. "A New Hampshire Yankee, George (Birdie) Tebbetts of the Boston Red Sox has been voted by the fans the most popular catcher in the American League, and this is his thirteenth year of major league baseball. After forty-four months in the Army Air Forces he returned to the diamond rusty and, some thought, past his peak. But he has made a remarkable recovery, and today there is no keener, quicker mind behind the plate. Off season, Mr. Tebbetts is associated with the Paul Sadler Insurance Agency of Nashua, New Hampshire."

Labor Rights and the Restructuring of Major League Baseball, 1969-1992(273 clicks)
"Despite some gains made since the 1970s, Baseball players face an increasingly hostile labor environment. Management retains the antitrust exemption, and a conservative Congress most likely will not remove the exemption in the near future. Baseball players and other organized workers have few friends in the federal government. Moreover, it appears as if labor disputes in other professional sports such as Hockey and Basketball may give greater impetus to baseball management to take a stronger stance against players in the future. Labor has lost and continues to lose ground vis a vis management."
