	Who Was Baseball's Most Interesting Character? Monte Ward \| BaseballLibrary.com
		The ever-so competitive Ward had the playing style and hustle of a Pete Rose, the pitching ability of a Charles “Old Hoss” Radbourn, the leadership presence of a Willie Stargell, the fight of a Billy Martin, the brains of a Cobb and Tom Seaver, and the power of a Landis and Donald Fehr.
		Ward and the rest of the players already were against the reserve clause, which he described as “a contract, which on its face is for several months being binding for life”.
		As a matter of fact, Ward, who earlier served briefly as the president of the Boston Braves and ran for N.L. President in 1909, was hired as a business manager for the Federal League's Brooklyn Tip-Tops in their financial fight against Major League Baseball in 1915.

	John Montgomery Ward \| BaseballLibrary.com
		Ward, assisted by Ned Hanlon, organized the Brotherhood of National League Players and they succeeded in negotiating a compromise with the league: The reserve clause could not be used to bind a player while his salary was being cut.
		Ward's legal practice in New York City flourished and he almost became the president of the National League, lacking one vote for confirmation.
		Keefe and Ward were teammates and brothers-in-law, with Ward married to the famous actress Helen Dauvrey and Keefe married to her sister Clara Gibson.

		Monte Ward said that OCTA was weighing two uncertainties: Rossmoor’s possible suit and a delay of 6 months to one year versus Caltrans delay in rewriting the EIR.

		Monte replied that they had as a concept and that even Caltrans was looking at it from a feasibility standpoint.

	Players' League-Chapter 2
		Ward's article clearly lays out the basis of the players' complaint: the buying club was not just retaining the player's services for the remainder of his contract, but was buying the right to reserve or sell him again.
		A case similar to Ward's was that of "Deacon" White a veteran infielder who was sold from the Detroit Wolverines of the NL to Pittsburgh of the NL.
		Ward's and the other players' ambivalence regarding the reserve rule and the indirect compensation the players received by securing the investments of the owners came to an end in 1889 with the advent of the Brush Classification Plan.

		They were numbers on which he was soon to improve; in 1889, in a nine-game series, Ward hit.417 (15-36) with 10 runs scored and seven `ribbies.' This time there was no scope for compassion; the Giants lost three of the first four games before rallying to take the last five.
		Be that as it may, Ward still wasn't through with postseason stardom.
		In the 1894 Temple Cup series, which the Giants, with Ward now the manager and second baseman, won in a four-game sweep, Ward hammered the Orioles into submission.

		Ward set a major league record for most assists (12) by a second baseman in a nine inning game on June 10, 1892 (the first game of a doubleheader).
		Ward approached Hutter following the game, introduced himself, and got Hutter to teach him the fundamentals of the curve behind the hotel that the Harrisburg team was staying in.
		While the curveball was a major addition to the game, Ward added a few other dimensions to the game that ball players from middle school to the major leagues use as tactics to this very day.

		After playing games with their interest in Victoria star Ryan Ward, hoping to use it -- or Ward himself -- as leverage in a deal, the Ravens took local product Mark Miyashita with the first over-all pick and dynamic, but volatile, St. Catharines, Ont., junior Craig Conn with the fourth pick.
		Dal Monte talked of the high-scoring forward in glowing terms publicly, but was hesitant to select a guy who wanted to play back east for work reasons after graduating from Indiana's Butler University with a teaching degree.
		With no decision then to be made on Ward, Dal Monte scooped up Conn, who had already indicated he would relocate to Vancouver.

	Notes from the Shadows of Cooperstown
		Monte Ward (I feel we are much closer now) was one of the key figures in shaping the basic structure of baseball in America.
		Following Monte Ward and his contemporaries, season by season unfolding with great detail, through the 1880s, 90s, and on into "the modern era" -- one is tempted to paraphrase the old Barzun line: whoever wants to know the heart and mind of baseball, had better learn about John Montgomery Ward.
		Monte's first wife (Helen Dauvray gave baseball its first World Series trophy) seems to rate her own biography, and maybe his second wife, too.
