Baseball In The Tar Heel State: A Fictional Experience

When you think about sports in North Carolina, the first images that come to mind likely involve ACC basketball and NASCAR. Maybe the Carolina Panthers. Maybe the Charlotte Bobcats (maybe not). Maybe little Appalachian State University knocking off powerful Michigan at the Big House a few years ago in the midst of winning three straight Division I-AA football titles.

Your first thoughts probably aren’t of baseball, but the Tar Heel state has fashioned quite a baseball tradition within its borders. Even Michael Jordan tried it during his first retirement from the NBA.

Scores and scores of Minor League clubs have called the Old North State home since the late 1800s. Even casual fans recognize the name “Durham Bulls,” a long-standing Minor League franchise made famous by the movie Bull Durham. Other clubs still in existence today include the Carolina Mudcats, Kinston Indians, Hickory Crawdads, Asheville Tourists, Greensboro Grasshoppers, Winston-Salem Dash (recent name change from Warthogs). All of these feed Major League clubs, while feeding fans’ thirst for competitive baseball, from the North Carolina mountains to the Piedmont to the coast.

Famous players with North Carolina roots include Enos Slaughter, Buck Leonard, Hoyt Wilhelm, Jim “Catfish” Hunter, Mark Grace, Gaylord Perry and Brian Roberts.

On the collegiate front, the University of North Carolina’s baseball team has played in the College World Series finals twice in recent years (June 2009 edit — make that three times, though my Heels still have yet to win it all).

All this to say, when I went looking for a backdrop for my first OOTP fictional dynasty, my home state seemed like the perfect fit. I can’t remember too many people trying a North Carolina-based state dynasty, so hopefully we’ll find a few fans out there eager to follow something a little different.

I’m planning on starting with a small league in 1913 and seeing where it takes me. Why 1913? Well, that was the first year of the real-life North Carolina State League, which featured six teams based in six of the state’s largest cities.

Those same six teams will form the genesis of my story as well:

Asheville Mountaineers
Charlotte Hornets
Durham Bulls
Greensboro Patriots
Raleigh Capitals
Winston-Salem Twins

I’m not going to tie myself down to trying to follow the real history with regards to teams and leagues coming and going. But I’ll definitely draw a lot of inspiration from North Carolina’s baseball past and present when it comes to where this story goes. I’m a small-town guy at heart, so I envision professional baseball making its way down North Carolina’s back roads in addition to being in the biggest cities.

Hope folks enjoy this one as much as I am enjoying getting deep into a fictional dynasty for the first time (I love the uniform and logo creation aspect a lot). Feel free to chime in with feedback, questions, trash talking against your favorite team‘s big rival, etc.

And not to fear. My Andrew Zarzour “Tall Tales” story -- he’s a native North Carolinian, too -- will continue. I look forward to meeting some new stars in this dynasty, though.

Thanks for stopping by. And now, AzTarHeel Productions presents: Baseball In Tar Heel State -- A Fictional Experience

fade out to the Andy Griffith theme song

A few housekeeping things before we get rolling:

* I did an inaugural draft, with a randomized order. The Raleigh Capitals picked first and -- I thought this was cool -- selected a player from the little town of Dunn, N.C. He’s a lefty pitcher named Jerry Parker, age 25. It will be interesting to see how this home-grown product fares. He‘s mesmerized by how big the capital city of Raleigh is.

* For now, I’m using 25-man active rosters, with everyone else on reserve rosters. Injuries will be low and trading will set to be low for now. I may create a minor league system at some point so some of these prospects have a place to play and get better…

* Teams will play a 120-game schedule (24 games against each of the other clubs), roughly what they played back in 1913 in the NCSL. The first games will be played in early April.

* There will be a playoff series, best-of-three, between the top two clubs at the end of the season

* No DH in this league … settings are, for the most part, set to mimic 1913 professional baseball … I like good pitching, so I made it a little tougher on hitters by tweaking the settings to favor the pitchers a bit more (mostly in the power department)

* As always, if there is anything folks want to know about anyone or anything, don’t hesitate to ask … feedback is definitely welcome…

Sounds good. I look forward to following along. Put me down as a Charlotte Hornets fan, although when I think of the Charlotte Hornets I think of Mugsy Bogues. Good luck with the dynasty!

A little peek at the teams’ first uniforms and home-made logos … You could say this collection is based on a true story...

DURHAM BULLS


OK, the Bulls' 1913 look a lot like today's. I couldn't find anything older to model my uniform after so I just went with the current logo. Why mess with a good thing?


CHARLOTTE HORNETS


Glenn's favorite team (thanks for stopping by!), which doesn't have a player named Mugsy just yet, wore a similar looking jersey back in the day, with a black hat. I improvised on the color of the "C" however... Later, the Hornets actually had a hornet-and-beehive logo on their jersey... something to aspire to...


ASHEVILLE MOUNTAINEERS


Nothing too fancy here.


GREENSBORO PATRIOTS


I found an old team picture of a Greensboro minor league team with this logo and jersey look. Wasn't sure of the color, but I figured I couldn't go wrong with green.


RALEIGH CAPITALS


Completely made-up logo and jersey look ... I went with red and white mostly because of NC State University, located in Raleigh. The Wolfpack is red and white...


WINSTON-SALEM TWINS


The Twins jersey is similar to what they wore back in the day but I improvised on the color of the hat …





Some early observations on the North Carolina State League heading into the inaugural season in 1913:

• If pitching wins championships, put your money on the Raleigh Capitals. The Caps appear to have the two best hurlers in the league — Jerry Parker (the first overall pick) and Oliver “Skull” Jenkins, a 33-year-old lefty. Not sure how Skull got his nickname. Some speculate it’s because he got hit in the head with a line drive in a game years ago and wasn’t even fazed by it.

• Winston-Salem shortstop Carlos Rodriguez is considered to have the heftiest bat. He’s got a great eye and is known for pounding balls into the gap. Folks in the western part of North Carolina are still getting used to his New York accent, though.

• Speaking of accents, Winston’s young left-fielder Angél Pellicer found his way from the Dominican to North Carolina. Despite the language gap, he‘s quickly becoming a fan favorite. He’s considered the top young prospect in the North Carolina State League by the fine folks at Baseball Carolina (the real-life Baseball America is published in Durham by the way). Pellicer is called “Sweetness" by his fans, and even at age 23, he looks ready to be the clean-up hitter for the Twins.

• Pound for pound, the Baseball Carolina pundits think Charlotte has the best all-around team and consider the Hornets ready to take the inaugural title. Charlotte has a pretty nice set of hitters, led by Fred Belcher and Cristobal Roman.

• Another native New Yorker, infielder Anthony Watson, is a wiley ol’ vet and one of the most popular players in all of professional baseball. He settled in Durham in 1913, hoping the move south would generate a few more good years for his baseball career.

• OK, enough with the introductions. Let’s play ball, North Carolina!!

1913 North Carolina State League — Season Recap



Bulls claim inaugural regular season crown
The Durham Bulls and Raleigh Capitals proved the class of the North Carolina State League during the first two months of the season. The two teams were tied at the top of the standings much of the way, including on June 1.

While Durham kept up the pace during the back half of the season, the Caps could not. In fact, the Winston-Salem Twins surpassed Raleigh for second place — thus earning the other slot in the three-game championship playoff series.

Anthony Watson, the veteran second baseman/infielder from New York, led the North Carolina State League in several offensive categories. The Durham standout had the top batting average (.352), best slugging percentage (.462), best runs created/27 outs numbers (8.24) and best VORP. (47) He was second in on-base percentage (.432). An MVP type season for sure — and a nice pick-up for the Bulls.

Durham pitcher Kenny Davis led the league with 18 wins (losing nine times). His ERA of 2.27 was second overall.

Raleigh’s Oliver “Skull” Johnson certainly did his part to keep the Caps in contention. Mr. Hard Head struck out a league best 160, winning 16 times with a 2.39 ERA. He led the NCSL in a bunch of pitching categories.

Poor Charlotte (sorry Glenn). Tabbed by Baseball Carolina as the team to beat, the Hornets finished dead last. And they were pretty awful at 25 games back … Maybe next year … Or maybe the franchise will move to New Orleans or something…

Here are the standings from the inaugural season:

This looks like it's going to be a lot of fun, az.

I think I'm going to back the Mountaineers. I spent some very enjoyable weeks at a church retreat center in that part of North Carolina, so I suppose I'll always have an affinity for the area.

It's too bad the teams that folks have chosen to follow so far are off to rough starts ... hopefully Charlotte and Asheville will turn things around ... I'm a Raleigh native but live closer to Winston-Salem these days...

Yeesh, Charlotte really was pretty rough on the road. Yikes ... Interestingly, Durham seemed to underachieve a bit (as did Asheville) if you look at the Pyt. Record of each team.

Thanks Glenn and Big Six (and others) for reading ... Playoff results for year one coming up next...

1913 North Carolina State League — Playoff Recap



Winston-Salem edges Bulls for inaugural NCSL title

Game 1: Durham 11, Winston-Salem 7 -- WP: Kenny Davis
Game 2: Winston-Salem 7, Durham 2 -- WP: Chris Lloyd
Game 3: Winston-Salem 5, Durham 4 -- WP: Caden Anderson


Winston-Salem continued its late-season surge into the playoffs, beating Durham in three games to claim the inaugural North Carolina State League championship.

The first two games went in opposite directions in more ways than who won. Winston outhit Durham 17-13 in a wild Game One but the two teams combined for only 10 hits in Game Two. Four different Twins had two-out RBIs to propel Winston to the Game Two triumph.

Durham scored first in the decisive Game Three contest, plating a run in the bottom of the first. Winston-Salem, though, pushed three runs across in the top of the third. Durham walked in a run during that frame and gave up four hits.

The Twins’ lead stretched to 5-1 in the top of the sixth. Two walks to start the inning were followed by an RBI single from 2B Howard Knapp. Later in the inning, Durham walked in another run. Yikes.

The Bulls did try their best to rally, getting a run back in the seventh inning and two more in the bottom of the eighth. But Winston relief pitchers River Reinhardt (great name, and he’s from Charlotte!) and Juan Dieguez shut Durham down in the ninth. The last two batters swung at the first pitch. One flied out and one grounded out.

Winston players poured onto the Bulls’ home field to celebrate. Some felt that the Twins were a little too rowdy in their celebrations, and some of the Bulls’ players vowed retaliation next season for their opponents‘ lack of respect for the game.


(NOTE: I just looked this up: In real life, Winston-Salem edged Durham by half a game to top the 1913 NCSL standings … Raleigh was in third place … There were no playoffs, however … And the Hornets weren’t last!! They were fifth out of six)…

1913 North Carolina State League — Player Awards


NCSL Batting Champion
Anthony Watson topped the North Carolina State League in hitting this past year. The outstanding Bulls second baseman posted a .352 average to garner the title. His 142 hits included 37 doubles, 5 triples and no home runs. This season's batting king, who showed he's still got plenty left in him, also drove in 48 runs and scored 51 times.



Most Outstanding Hitter Award
There was nobody hotter in the North Carolina State League this season than Angel Pellicer, who attacked enemy pitching with a vengeance and came away with the Outstanding Hitter Award for 1913.

The 24-year-old left fielder hit .333 while collecting 138 hits, 31 doubles, 5 triples, 1 home run and 62 RBIs. He also scored 80 runs and posted a .450 on-base percentage.



Most Outstanding Pitcher Award
Kenny Davis of the Durham Bulls has been selected the premier pitcher in the North Carolina State League and will receive the Outstanding Pitcher Award for 1913.

The top vote-getter completed the year with a 18-9 record. He started 30 times, threw 246.1 innings, chalked up 127 strikeouts and 63 walks, limited hitters to a .234 batting average and posted an impressive 2.27 ERA.



Rookie Of The Year Award
Everyone was a North Carolina State League newcomer in 1913, but voters liked Winston-Salem’s Angel Pellicer for this inaugural trophy, giving him an award to go with his top hitter honor. It was a season to remember for the 24-year-old Twins rookie. He wrapped up his first year with a .333 batting average, 31 doubles, 5 triples and 1 home run. Pellicer also had 62 RBIs and scored 80 times. The fans still love his accent.


Glove Wizard Awards
Pitcher: Jesús Lavala (Charlotte Hornets)
Catcher: Dave Meeks (Asheville Mountaineers)
First Baseman: Randy Downs (Greensboro Patriots)
Second Baseman: Arthur Young (Asheville Mountaineers)
Third Baseman: Ken Stephens (Charlotte Hornets)
Shortstop: John Hudson (Greensboro Patriots)
Left Fielder: Alfredo Pérez (Asheville Mountaineers)
Center Fielder: Ryan Travis: (Winston-Salem Twins)
Right Fielder: Tony Davis (Durham Bulls)



Most Valuable Player Award
I created a custom award to honor the Most Valuable Player (not necessarily the best hitter/pitcher). In my humble opinion, Durham 2B Anthony Watson deserved the honor. He was super reliable and helped his team win more games than anyone in the regular season.

Maybe in future years I’ll put this award up for a reader’s vote… thoughts?



1913 North Carolina State League — News & Notes

* Asheville catcher Dave Meeks certainly wasn't meek at the plate. He had a season’s best 23-game hitting streak. Meeks batted .294 for the season. No one else broke 20 games in a row.

* Asheville pitcher Norm Ross won eight games in a row during one stretch. He finished 16-10. How did he lose 10 games with an ERA of 2.23? Wow -- couldn’t get any offense behind him.

* The Charlotte Hornets had a losing record against every other club. The Hornets did their best against Raleigh, winning 11 of 24 games … Poor Hornets…

* The Durham Bulls, on the other hand, had a winning record against every other franchise, including 14-10 in the regular season against Winston-Salem.

* Raleigh 3B Robert Blevins lost a fight with his locker, and it cost him more than a week of action. He slammed his hand against his locker after an argument with his manager and fractured his wrist. Blevins was probably mad because he never got to play. He only had one at-bat for Raleigh this season and that came during spring training. By June, Blevins had had it with his stingy manager and let off some steam… and lost.

* Raleigh reserve catcher Jim McCrory made the news just once during the 1913 season -- when he got bit by a poisonous snake while taking a walk at Raleigh's Pullen Park near State College. The injury kept him out for a week, but the Caps never used him all season. Maybe they thought he was cursed or something.

* There were no no-hitters in the inaugural NCSL season, but six pitchers tossed two hitters. Durham’s Gary Lee stayed on the mound for 11.1 innings, surrendering just four hits, in one game. He ended up with a no-decision however.

* Raleigh’s Oliver “Skull” Jenkins was the only pitcher to record more than 10 strikeouts in a game. He had 11 K’s in a 6-0 win over Charlotte. The Hornets managed just three hits against Skull. Poor Hornets…

* Durham 2B Anthony Watson had a five-hit game in six at-bats against Winston-Salem. Charlotte 3B Ken Stephens had a 5-for-5 day with five RBIs in a 12-6 win over Raleigh. And Charlotte won the game! Good job, Hornets!! See, there is hope for Charlotte, Glenn... haha

1913-14 North Carolina State League — Off-Season Period

The inaugural season of the North Carolina State League proved a success, capped by the Twins' exciting run to the post-season championship. All of the clubs averaged 2,000 to 3,000 fans per game, more than anticipated. As a result, all six clubs who played in 1913 agreed to come back for a second season.

The teams got together in November and decided to hold an allocation draft that would solve how to send new players to the league's teams. To keep things as competitive as possible, it was agreed that the team with worst record from the year before — in this case the Charlotte Hornets — would have the first pick among the new prospects, followed by the No. 5 team (Greensboro Patriots), etc. The rest of the rounds would be done in a straight-draft mode…

Charlotte went for pitching to start with, tabbing 18-year-old Tim “T-Rex” Johnston from Houston, Texas. He reportedly has some nasty stuff and can stay on the mound all day long if need be. Charlotte took five pitchers in a row before getting a position player, hoping to improve its fortunes and keep its fans.

The champion Winston-Salem Twins bucked the pitching-first trend and selected a catcher in the opening round, taking Todd “The Wall” Chandler. He’s 23 and already pretty well-known in baseball circles. He looks solid defensively and offensively.

In other news, club officials agreed to create a “farm system” that would allow players on the reserve rosters to see real-life game action. The farm system teams will reside in the same city as their parent team for now, usually playing games on practice fields or school fields in their communities. One newspaper referred to the developmental teams as "junior teams" and that moniker stuck. So the Durham Bulls' farm team will be known as the Durham Junior Bulls, Charlotte‘s will be the Junior Hornets, etc. They’ll play a 90-game schedule, allowing for the top guys to move up to their big clubs for the stretch run…

It’s pretty crowded at the top after two months of play. The Raleigh Capitals hold a slight edge over the Greensboro Patriots and Winston-Salem Twins. The Durham Bulls, meanwhile, have fallen way off their pace from last year. And Charlotte, well, the Hornets are in a familiar place — last. Though not by much.

Raleigh’s Oliver “Skull” Jenkins was tearing it up in terms of ERA through June 1, posting a league best 1.82. But he’s only 6-5. If he got more offensive support, the Caps might have a more comfortable lead at this point in the standings.

Winston-Salem is hitting the ball well, with RF Zachary Taylor (.338), 3B Santiago Alonso (.333), CF Ryan Travis (.332) and LF Angel Pellicer (.324) all in the top six in league hitting. But the Twins haven’t been getting as much pitching support, hence why they trail the Caps and Pats.

What’s going on in the mountains? Merlin McNeill has been pitching well for Asheville (8-4 with a 2.60 ERA). First baseman Tom Parker, the Mountaineers’ lead-off man, earned Player of the Week honors to close out May. He hit two homers during the week, a rarity for this league, and batted home 10 runs. Injuries have been tough on Asheville thus far, including a starting pitcher, Ethan Perry, lost for the season.

Charlotte’s Ivan Martinez has carried a hot bat for the Hornets. He’s batting just over. 300 for the season thus far, including a 5-for-6 day against Bulls in May. Charlotte won a wild one, 15-10 that afternoon. In general, pitching has let Charlotte down this season, though. The Hornets are fifth or sixth in the league in most major pitching categories.

Down on the farm, the Raleigh Junior Capitals (37-20) and Winston-Salem Junior Twins (36-21) lead the way. Charlotte is last in the developmental league as well, with just 18 wins to its credit so far. Maybe Glenn needs to take over the franchise or something to get things turned around!

Going into the final two weeks of games, a few things are clear -- Raleigh will win the league’s regular season title. Charlotte will finish last again. And the defending champion Winston-Salem Twins won’t get a chance at a title repeat.

The No. 2 spot in the playoffs is still up for grabs, though, between the Durham Bulls, Asheville Mountaineers and Greensboro Patriots.

Fans in the mountains are much more excited about their club this year. Asheville’s Merlin McNeill has fashioned 14 wins from the mound, while Norm Ross has won 13 times. Tom Parker has hit seven homers thus far to lead the league. The crowd gets such a rush when they see a ball get knocked completely out of Asheville Grounds. Some say it’s the thinner air up in the mountains that does it. Regardless, the team is growing in popularity and may have a chance at the playoffs in year two of its existence.

Here is one of the reasons Charlotte is struggling so bad — poor talent evaluation. The Hornets traded catcher Vincente Nieves to Raleigh after just one at-bat this season (he was a reserve roster guy in 1913). Nieves has since blossomed into the Capitals’ starting backstop, recording a batting average of .293 and two Rookie of the Month awards for 1914. The players that Charlotte got in return? Well, pitcher Javier Guerra is 3-12 and 2B Tim Matheny is batting .175 -- for the Junior Hornets club. Not exactly a winning combo…

Raleigh pitchers Oliver “Skull” Johnson (15-7, 2.36 ERA, 118 Ks) and Andy Owens (16-7, 2.60 ERA, 92 Ks) are all over the league leader boards. Caps starters Mark Smith (14 wins) and Jerry Parker (12 wins) also are throwing well. Raleigh looks tough to beat in the playoffs… but you never know with a three-game series...

As expected, the Raleigh Capitals closed out their first regular season championship triumph. The Caps finished with a roar, winning their last six and eight of their last 10.

In the final game of the regular season, Raleigh sent a statement to their soon-to-be playoff opponent, the Durham Bulls. The Capitals ripped their blue-clad neighbors 18-1 at Durham Athletic Park. The Caps scored six runs in the first inning and four more in the third to take command early. Wonder if the Bulls can recover in time for the playoffs? Looks doubtful.

The Bulls did way overachieve if you look at the Pyt. Record (eight games better than expected). And they went 30-17 in one-run contests, finding lots of ways to win tight ones.

Asheville finished strong, winning its last four. But the Mountaineers middled around during the last few weeks and weren’t quite able to overtake Durham for second place. The Patriots, Twins and woeful Hornets all finished below .500 for the season. Charlotte must just hate to go on the road. The Hornets were 18-42 away from the friendly confines of Field of the Hornets.

Baseball Carolina voters may have a tough time deciding who to pick for the Most Outstanding Pitcher Award. Check out these lines coming out of Raleigh’s bullpen: Andy Owens (18-7), Oliver “Skull” Jenkins (17-7) and Mark Smith (16-7). And none of these three was the No. 1 pick in the 1913 inaugural draft. That would be lefty Jerry Parker, who fashioned a 14-10 campaign with an ERA of 2.75. That's going to be some combination to stop in the playoffs.

Owens probably has the edge for post-season awards, considering he’s thrown a one-hitter, a two-hitter and a pair of four-hitters this season.

Raleigh is an aggressive team on the base paths, stealing a league-most 244 sacks. Second baseman Troy Riley and LF John Stewart nabbed 57 each. The Caps just look tough all the way around this year. Scary good.

In the developmental league, Winston-Salem edged Raleigh by two games to win the season title. Asheville was last, with Charlotte in fifth.

Hmmm, let's see, Year 1 - last place 46-74, Year 2 - last place 44-76. We're going the wrong way! What's a Hornet fan to do, except hang their hopes on the 5th place development league team, and hope T-Rex and those other pitchers develop quick. Another year of a surprisingly bad road record and a little bad luck too.

I'm going out on a limb and saying we'll win 50 games in 1915!

1914 North Carolina State League -- Playoff Recap



Bulls stun Caps, take NCSL crown
Two of three playoff games go to extra innings

Game 1: Durham 3, Raleigh 0 -- WP: Gary “Brick” Lee
Game 2: Raleigh 6, Durham 5 (10 innings) -- WP: Alfonso Rios
Game 3: Durham 9, Raleigh 6 (10 innings) -- WP: Ed Becker; S: Ramon Carbaja


If the Raleigh Capitals thought they had knocked the Durham Bulls to the turf for good with their 18-1 thrashing on the final day off the regular season, they were sadly mistaken.

The Bulls got back up off the mats and delivered a stunning response, winning the second-year North Carolina State League championship. Ironically, the Bulls had won last year’s regular season crown, only to be outdone by Winston-Salem in the three-game playoff series. This time, Durham turned the tables.

Game One proved a major eye-opener, with Durham pitcher Gary “Brick” Lee out-dueling Raleigh all-star Oliver “Skull” Jenkins. Durham scored a run in the fourth, one in the seventh and one in the eighth. Meanwhile, the Brick pitched a six-hit shutout gem. The Caps hit only singles and got just two men into scoring position.

Raleigh struck back in Game Two, scoring in the bottom of the 10th to squeeze past Durham by one. The Bulls had scored two in the top of the ninth to tie. But Durham opted to intentionally walk two men in the 10th after giving up a lead-off walk. On a 3-2 count, Raleigh catcher Vincente Nieves drew another walk to bring home the winning run. Ouch. Nieves, as you remember, was traded to Raleigh from Charlotte after just one at-bat with the Hornets early in the season…

But Durham wasn’t sunk by its playoff defeat, though many predicted the team would fall mightily in the decisive third game. The hero for the Bulls? Anthony Watson, the now 35-year-old infielder, who moved to Durham from New York in 1913 to revive his career. Boy, has he ever. He was last year’s league MVP and might win that award again.

Watson batted .308 in the playoff series, including three hits in Game Two -- and the biggest hit of the series in the top of the 10th inning in Game Three. That drove home two runs and put the Bulls in the driver’s seat to unseat the Caps as league champs. Despite hitting a batter and committing two errors in the bottom of the 10th, the Bulls managed to keep Raleigh off the board and bring the championship cup to Durham for 1914.

Durham players and fans complained that Winston-Salem was overly zealous in their celebrations in 1913. But Durham probably doubled its public jubilation after the Game Three triumph, on Raleigh’s field no less. Definitely some rivalries brewing in this new league.

One thing that NCSL officials may talk about in the off-season -- expanding the playoff series beyond a best-of-three games. “It’s just too quick,” Raleigh manager Abraham Wise said. “I think a five- or even seven-game series would be more adequate to decide the true champion of our league.”

A good point or just sour grapes from the losing side? It probably depends on your vantage point…

1914 North Carolina State League — Player Awards


NCSL Batting Champion
Zachary Taylor, a right fielder with the Winston-Salem Twins, nearly won this honor last year, finishing second in the league in hitting. This year, he claimed the batting title, hitting .325. Interestingly, the left-handed hitter struggles against lefty pitchers and often sat out those games (he was 11 of 45 against southpaws, not too bad I guess). He bats second going up against righties. For the season, Taylor had 124 hits in 382 at-bats, with two homers and 52 RBIs.



Most Outstanding Hitter Award
Greensboro 1B Randy Downs provided a lot of highlights for a franchise that otherwise was in the shadows of rivals from Raleigh, Durham and Winston-Salem. Downs batted .305 with 60 RBIs, four home runs, eight triples and 19 doubles. Like Anthony Watson of Durham, Downs is an “old guy” at age 35. He hails from Eastlake, Ohio. Downs batted .259 in 1913, so he showed some improved pop in year two of his play in the NCSL.



Most Outstanding Pitcher Award
In a close vote, Raleigh’s Oliver “Skull” Jenkins, also in his mid-30s, got the nod as the NCSL pitching ace for 1914. Skull went 17-7, with an ERA of 2.47. He threw 233.2 innings with 143 strikeouts as the team’s No. 1. It will be interesting to see what Jenkins can do next year. He showed fatigue as this season went along, and his ERA climbed from 1.65 for May up to 3.42 for August and 3.38 in the playoffs…



Rookie Of The Year Award
Charlotte fans are still shaking their heads over losing catcher Vincente Nieves, who became Raleigh’s starting backstop and won the league’s Rookie of the Year award for 1914. Nieves batted .294 in 105 games with three homers and 61 RBIs. His RBI tally was fourth in the league.


Glove Wizard Awards
Pitcher: Miguel Ruiz (Charlotte Hornets)
Catcher: Vincente Nieves (Raleigh Capitals) -- nice year for him!
First Baseman: Randy Downs (Greensboro Patriots) -- double awards for him, too
Second Baseman: John Brown (Charlotte Hornets)
Third Baseman: Ken Stephens (Charlotte Hornets)
Shortstop: Fred Belcher (Charlotte Hornets) -- hey the Hornets had some good fielding!
Left Fielder: James Price (Greensboro Patriots)
Center Fielder: Joey Fisher (Asheville Mountaineers)
Right Fielder: Hollis Bailey (Asheville Mountaineers)



Most Valuable Player Award
OK, so maybe I went with my heart on this one, crowning Durham Bulls infielder Anthony Watson as the repeat MVP winner. But it was just hard to overlook him taking the Bulls on his back, at age 35, and carrying them to an NCSL championship. He came up with three big hits in Game Two of the playoff series with Raleigh, then pounded the game-clinching two-run single in the 10th in Game Three. He led Durham in batting, with a .303 average and a team-best 56 RBIs.

Interestingly, Watson changed positions this year, moving over to third base full time after being the starting second baseman in 1913. Bill Ross, 26, took over at second base, batting .246. Watson didn‘t mind. He‘s just glad to be on the field and hopeful for some more good years ahead…

1914 North Carolina State League -- News & Notes

• There were zero no-hitters again this season, but Raleigh’s Andy Owens tossed a one-hitter and a two-hitter to come close. Nice. He’s 27 years old by the way, so should be in the league for awhile…

• Two players had six-RBI games in 1914. Both came against Asheville. Raleigh SS Jeff Sherman went 5-for-5 with six RBIs against the Mountaineers on April 10, while Winston-Salem SS Carlos Rodriguez (“C-Rod") went 5-for-6 with the six-pack of RBIs on Aug. 4. Rodriguez also was walked in that game, so spent a lot of time on the base paths.

• Winston catcher Richard Franklin had a game against Asheville where he went 2-for-2 and drew four walks. He scored four runs in a 21-3 win over the Mountaineers in April. Wow on a lot of fronts. (What’s up with folks having big games against Asheville anyways?)

• Pitcher Matt King, originally from South Florida, moved to Asheville in 1913 hoping to keep his career alive in the cool mountains of North Carolina. He was 41 years old at the time and posted a 5-3 record with a 2.49 ERA in 11 starts for the Mountaineers. He even had a two-hit shutout against Greensboro in May 1913.

But injuries finally caught up with King. He missed the final two months of 1913 with bone chips in his elbow, then tore a bicep muscle while trying to get ready for the 1914 campaign. He missed the entire '14 season and decided to hang it up for good after that. “I still love the game and have the heart to be out there, but my body is just shot,” he said. "Maybe I'll try to be a manager or pitching coach. I really like Asheville."

• Winston RF Manuel Gutierrez retired after the 1914 season with a .400 average. Nice! Of course, he only came to bat five times in two years, getting two hits. He batted 1.000 in 1913! His one official at-bat was a single (and he scored a run). “It was fun just to be out there,” he said. “I fell in love with Winston-Salem fans, and winning a championship for them will always be one of my favorite memories, even if I watched most of it from the dugout or the bleachers as a reserve player."

• The owners of the Winston-Salem franchise must have a short memory. They fired manager Ollie Spence after the Twins finished fifth in 1914. Spence directed the team to a championship the year before. Go figure.

• It’s amazing Asheville did as well as it did looking deeper into the Mountaineers’ season. The team lost three pitchers to season-ending injuries, as well as its starting 2B. Three of the four injuries happened early in the season.

• Here is some hope for Charlotte fans. The Hornets are deemed to have the second-best farm system in the NCSL (behind Durham). The top prospect in the league continues to be the No. 1 pick from the most recent draft, 19-year-old pitcher Tim Johnston. The Texas-born hurler went 10-11 with a 3.53 ERA in his season with the developmental league. Johnston’s ratings for stuff/movement/control on a 1-20 scale are 9/19/11. He’s got 19 endurance and an 18 work ethic. “Projected stud” is how scouts rate him. Charlotte can use that for sure…

• Watch out for Winston-Salem farmhand Chris Wilson. The 24-year-old right-handed pitcher went 15-1 in the developmental league, with an ERA of 0.64. Now that’s a stud.

Chris Wilson did not win the NCSL Developmental League top pitcher award. That went to Raleigh’s Alejandro Esobar, who was 16-3. His ERA was 1.39. The rich get richer.

Next up: getting ready for 1915...

1915 North Carolina State League — Pre-Season


Charlotte's new logo, with a more golden color scheme instead of cream

A few minor changes on tap for Year 3 of NCSL

• The first two seasons of the NCSL proved successful on many fronts, and all six clubs have decided to renew their affiliation with the league for a third year.

A few minor changes. The Asheville Mountaineers have decided to change their nickname to Asheville Tourists (a real-life change made in 1915). Also the Charlotte Hornets have modified their logo and hat a little bit, coming up with a classier looking “C” (which looks a lot more like the old Charlotte hats that I’ve recently found pictures of).

• Charlotte fans have had it rough thus far after a couple of dreadful seasons. But the Hornets’ fortunes could be looking up. Charlotte appears to have gotten it right with this year’s player allocation draft. The Hornets had the No. 1 overall pick and used it on Craig Clark, a 22-year-old left-handed pitcher from Texas. The 6-foot-3 Clark looks like the real deal. He’s more seasoned than last year’s No. 1 pick (18-year-old Tim Johnston), though he may start his career in the developmental league.

Clark’s ratings now are 5/18/10 (1-20 scale) for stuff-movement-control, with his potential at 8/20/19. Best of all, he’s got a 20 rating for leadership. The Hornets need a leader badly. Give Charlotte a few years, and with this pitching staff, the Hornets could contend for titles (seriously) … In all Charlotte picked four pitchers with its five draft picks.

• Winston-Salem picked up the top-ranked position player, 18-year-old 1B Roland Brown from College Station, Texas. Brown fell to the second round at teams scarfed up pitchers. Speaking of that, the Twins are real high on 18-year-old pitcher Jack Fry, who was their No. 1 pick. Others aren't so sure about Fry, however, saying he's been over-hyped.

• It will be interesting to see who develops from this draft class. It seems pretty thin overall.

• The 1915 season will be like the first two in that teams will play a 120-game schedule — 24 games against each of the other clubs

• For now, the playoff series will remain best-of-three. Changing the championship series to best-of-five or best-of-seven got plenty of discussion during off-season meetings, however.

• There was talk in the off-season, but no action, of moving the developmental league teams to different cities than the parent clubs. Most liked the idea because it will spread the popularity of baseball to other parts of the state, and give the more rural communities a chance to have teams to back. Many like the idea of placing all six developmental teams in close proximity to each other to cut down on travel concerns.

• On Monday, April 5th, 1915 the magazine Baseball Carolina published its list of Top Prospects from the North Carolina State League. They are buying the hype on Winston-Salem pitcher Jack Fry for now. He's the No. 1 prospect, a fact that got Charlotte's Tim Johnston and Craig Clark pretty fired up. All three will start their years in the developmental league.

Here is the top 10:
1) SP Jack Fry, 18, Winston-Salem Twins
2) SP Tim Johnston, 19, Charlotte Hornets
3) SP Craig Clark, 22, Charlotte Hornets
4) SP Curt Dunham, 22, Greensboro Patriots
5) SP Alberto Vázquez, 18, Raleigh Capitals
6) SP Logan Lorn, 18, Charlotte Hornets
7) SP Luis Romero, 23, Asheville Tourists
8) SP Israel Solíz, 21, Asheville Tourists
9) SP Allen Watson, 20, Winston-Salem Twins
10) 1B Roland Brown, 18, Winston-Salem Twins

• AZTarHeel, after looking at each team, predicts another championship for the Durham Bulls, with the Greensboro Patriots being the other team on top of the league standings in 1915.

Wow, the Mountaineers had a tough year in '14 with all the injuries. It's easy to say "what if," but I can't help thinking that if they'd had more luck they'd have made the playoffs.

I like their talent base, though, and it looks like they have a couple of good young players on their way up. Maybe the new nickname will take the hoodoo off them.

I'll be following along...go Tourists!
