When baseball first started, there were no dugouts—but by 1908, they became part of the game for an unusual reason, as Jesse Goldberg-Strassler explains in this week’s Tales from The Baseball Thesaurus.Dugouts came to be for a simple reason: by putting the players lower than field level, fans sitting closest to the action, in the expensive seats, would have a better view of the game. Those early dugouts were basic, unlike the dugouts of today, which feature guard railings and screens to protect players from foul balls. And, as you might expect, players have bestowed a bevy of interesting monikers to these foul balls—heat-seeking missiles, ugly seekers—as well as to the players riding the pines, the benchwarmers.Not every dugout is a true dugout. It wasn’t until after the Los Angeles Dodgers moved spring operations to Arizona that sheltered dugouts were installed at Holman Stadium in Dodgertown, the team’s long-time Florida spring home. Instead, players sat on ground-level benches—with Tommy Lasorda holding court at the end closest to the umps.Goldberg-Strassler shares his insights on the colorful patois of America’s Pastime in this weekly podcast.

BASEBALL AND BABIES:MY LIFE AS A CATCHER by Ted Manos, M.D. This book was written thirty years ago, recounting an unbelievable journey, I had at that time, that can only happen in a dream. I was an obstetrician/gynecologist that saw an ad in The Sporting News that invited the reader to be "a Dodger for a week". I grew up in Brooklyn, New York and was just at the right age to follow the exploits of the Brooklyn Dodgers before they left for Los Angeles after the 1957 baseball season. I signed up for a week at Dodgertown, Vero Beach, Fl participating at a camp for adults following the spring training program the Brooklyn and, eventually the Los Angeles Dodgers held since 1948. I played baseball through college and was a catcher for my three varsity college years. I was good enough to dream of a career in baseball. I did well academically and eventually went to medical school and abandoned the dreams of baseball but continued "catching" babies as an obstetrician. The book, follows me from my thoughts before the week, to the experience of meeting men I idolized all my life. I also experience baseball without the doubts of youth. My performance was the things that dreams were made of. The former Brooklyn Dodgers I met, achieved magical results for their team and the borough of Brooklyn. Roger Kahn, a sports journalist, wrote a book in the early 1970's describing his coverage of the Brooklyn team in its prime and revisited the men he grew to love and respect over fifteen years after those days. The book was entitled "The Boys of Summer" and they became known as the title described. The book "Shoeless Joe" and the subsequent movie "Field of Dreams" captured the game of baseball and how it occurs to boys and men. The poignant lines are, "is this heaven, no it's Iowa" and "heaven is where dreams come true". My book allowed me to commune with the past and discover baseball, without the doubts that young minds create about their abilities. I even donned the catcher's gear for a few games. I couldn't have played better and the instructors were amazed. I found the freedom to experience the joy of the game and competition. It was also an opportunity for the "boys of summer" to relive their love of the game and the relationships they had lost touch of. Is this heaven? No, it's Dodgertown. Much like the "Field of Dreams" movie, where the ghosts of baseball players past, appear from a cornfield and start playing baseball, now the men I met have mostly passed on. My memories of the camp, and the "boys of summer", are like the characters in the movie coming out of the cornfield. They are the spirits of men, spending eternity playing baseball in a heaven. My life after the camp was transformed, as adult baseball leagues were born out of these "fantasy camps", and I played actively for the next twenty years. If the movie was true, the "boys of summer" are somewhere in heaven playing everyday. Author biography: Born in Brooklyn, NY graduated from Wesleyan University in Middletown CT, then Albany Medical College, Albany, NY with medical doctorate in 1970.

This week we're joined by special guest EJ. We talk about USF football, break down the pros and cons of the group of five holding their own championship game, nonsense NCAA recruiting stats, the first female football scholarship recipient, Chandler Basha's Becca Longo, and talk about how Georgia Tech fans might be sick of Russell Athletic. We smoothly pivot to the weirdness that is Michael Jackson's Moonwalker Movie, Alex Jones and his claim that he is a performance artists, George W Bush visiting Vero Beach and how he doesn't seem so bad in retrospect. We do nothing to solve the complex and very serious problem of Gerrymandered congressional districts, Jason talks about waking up to a possible Red Dawn scenario and how excited he is about Everclear playing in Fort Pierce, we then talk about the Trump kids (we only forgot about 2 of them!), we continue to be obsessed with Chuck Tingle, we talk about how the Brave Wall Street Girl staring down the Wall Street Bull is a little more complicated than it seems, we briefly talk about money in politics, the Florida's 2018 gubernatorial candidates, and finish the episode talking about watching the Florida Fire Frogs lose to the St Lucie Mets at Historic (and in need of a renovation) Dodgertown. www.rushingattack.com Facebook: @RushingAttack Twitter: @Rushing_Attack Instagram: rushingattack
