Lesson #109
We've certainly all heard of Jackie Robinson and understand the groundbreaking role he played (and the risks he took), but today I'd like to honor Robinson's teammate Roy "Campy" Campanella, who blazed quite a remarkable trail of his own. Born November 19, 1921 (Happy birthday!) in Philadelphia, Roy showed an early athletic talent and was reliably picked as captain of nearly every school sports team in which he played. Eventually he began playing for the Negro Leagues in 1937, having dropped out of high school to do so. First picked up by the Baltimore Elite Giants, he then did a stint in the Mexican Leagues for the Monterrey Sultans. His big break came in 1945 when he was signed as catcher for one of the Brooklyn Dodgers' farm clubs. Originally slated to play for the Danville (Illinois) Dodgers, that team's management decided they were not yet ready for racial integration and so Campanella instead started with the Nashua (New Hampshire) Dodgers, which in so doing became the first integrated professional baseball team.
Campanella officially joined the Brooklyn Dodgers in April 1948, only a few months after Jackie Robinson. Ten seasons with the Dodgers followed, a span which also included 8 appearances in the All-Star game and 3 National League MVP awards. Perhaps most significantly Campanella was catcher for the Dodgers' historic 1955 World Series win over the Yankees, himself hitting three home runs in that series.
Sadly Campanella's professional career was cut short when he paralyzed his neck and spine in a car accident in 1958. However he remained a high-profile member of the (now Los Angeles) Dodgers organization, in various public relations and coaching roles. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1969 --the second African American to be so honored. His jersey (#39) was retired by the Dodgers in 1972, along with those of his teammates Jackie Robinson (#42) and Sandy Koufax (#32). Campanella died on June 26, 1993. In 2006 the L.A. Dodgers created the Roy Campanella Award, given annually to the Dodger who best exemplifies "Campy's" spirit and leadership.
Career batting avg: .283 Hits: 1,401 HR: 260 RBI: 1,017 Stolen bases: 34

(I know I've repeatedly stated that I wanted to mostly steer away from celebrities, musicians, and sports figures in this ongoing series, but on this occasion I will admit to being unable to resist the opportunity to draw what amounts to an actual baseball card!)

This week on the Daly Dose, we discuss some of the scariest characters in sports history, and we can’t help but notice how different things are in the current era. We might be in the most amazing season of the year as the NFL, College Football, MLB Playoffs, the NHL and the NBA are all currently rolling! In the MLB Playoffs, the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Texas Rangers are headed to the 2023 World Series after both had to win a Game 7 to get there! Then we are formally announcing the teams in both College Football and the NFL who have NO CHANCE at winning anything this year. There are some blue blood programs that had hopes of making the College Football Playoff that can already start turning their sights to next season. We also count 22 NFL teams that have no chance whatsoever of winning Super Bowl LVIII this year! Finally, with Halloween coming next Tuesday, we are bringing you some of the most subtle sports costumes to be on the lookout for when the trick or treaters visit your neighborhood!

This week’s artifacts from the @YogiBerraMuseum are two of the four @Topps #baseballcards that depict #Yogi on the New York @Mets! Yogi’s last @MLB at bat was in a #Mets uniform in 1965 and he managed the 1973 #YaGottaBelieve team to the #NationalLeague championship and a 7-game #WorldSeries loss. He’s also on a 1974 manager’s card and the 1975 Mets team card. Come see them for yourself! ⚾️8️⃣ (at Yogi Berra Museum & Learning Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/CplOLAVvYtK/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
