HEROES
BY GRAHAM WOMACK
G
Clay Sigg
rowing up in the 1960s, some of the Major League Baseball players Clay Sigg
admired mostSandy Koufax, Roberto
Clemente, Stan Musialall had one thing in
common.
Each spent their entire MLB career with one
franchise. While technically the Brooklyn Dodgers signed Clemente before Pittsburgh Pirates
general manager Branch Rickey plucked him as
a minor leaguer via the Rule 5 Draft, and while
Koufax moved with the Dodgers in 1958 to Los
Angeles, each man never donned another big
league uniform or had to have their baseball
card airbrushed to show the hat of a different
team.
Its an increasingly rare feat in a baseball
world where free agency has turned so many
players in recent decades into travelling acts,
vagabonds and mercenaries available to the
highest bidder.
Sigg recently completed a 12-year project researching and writing about the 177 players in
the 20th century who spent their entire career
2017_02_Feb GBV.indd 8
1/20/17 2:59 PM
City Royals who began as an expansion franchise in 1969, have had five players who qualify:
George Brett, Frank White, Paul Splittorff, John
Wathan, and Dennis Leonard.
Sigg included players in his book like Clemente, Hall of Fame pitcher Carl Hubbell, and
longtime Boston Red Sox catcher Jason Varitek,
each signed in the minors by one team but who
each spent their entire MLB careers for another
team.
Sigg made exceptions on his 10-season rule
for the following players:
Hall of Fame pitcher Addie Joss, who died
of bacterial meningitis shortly after going
to spring training in 1911 in preparation
for his 10th season.
Cleveland Indians shortstop Ray Chapman who was killed by a pitched ball
during his ninth season in 1920;
Houston Astros pitcher Don Wilson,
who died of carbon monoxide poisoning
in 1975, months after his ninth season
concluded;
George Selkirk, whose career was cut
short by his service in World War II.
Like any great research project, Sigg found
himself surprised by some of the things he
learned.
It didnt work out perfectly, because in my
mind, Yogi Berra should be a lifetime Yankee
but he had nine at-bats for the New York Mets,
Sigg said.
Other greats defined by their work for one
franchise quietly had stints with other teams,
Sigg noted: Christy Mathewson, Ryne Sandberg,
Lou Brock.

Planting seeds
at Learn, Love and Grow
BY MACKENZIE MYERS
New hands-on
preschool settles
in Granite Bay
16
Beverly Hills, Stevenson Ranch, Carlsbad. Shes been back east Omaha,
Chicago, her native Cleveland. Shes even
been in the Far East, in Iwakuni, Japan. In
1993, her first operation was a six-child
daycare, but now she oversees hundreds
of kids per week. And after 23 years of
childcare, shes accumulated just about
every supply under the sun: 500 boxes
worth, in fact, which she unpacked for
the Granite Bay location in November.
While she was excited about the new site,
unpacking was a bittersweet experience
for Brown.
Every location Ive opened, Ive done
it with my kids, she said. Now the nest
is empty.
Browns daughters, one an actress in
Los Angeles and one an illustrator for
Warner Brothers, have not only helped
her set up the business, but have helped
her shape it over the last two dozen years.
I developed workshops at each of
their milestones, Brown said, from
learning colors and reading to babysitting. My daughters grew up in a DIY environment. I was the mom who refused to
complain about programs and, instead, I
decided to build them.

about two-thirds of the work on the canals and dams upstream, while local Italian masons put the powerhouse together.
This thing is still as solid as it was
when it was built in 1895, he said.
Despite the awe-inspiring, larger-thanlife penstocks, the whole show ran on
two smaller ones, called exciters. Sandwiched between the main penstocks, the
exciters look like miniature versions of
their neighbors. They served as direct-current motors, helping generate magnetic fields in the large alternating-current
structures. If these generators went down,
the whole system went down with it, Overman explained.
