	Vikings’ Stringer joins another well-liked athlete who died young By Wayne Harrison Acorn Sports Writer
		Eighty-one years ago today (Aug. 16, 1920) Cleveland Indian star shortstop Ray Chapman was hit in the head by a pitch thrown by the sidearm-specialist of the New York Yankees, Carl Mays.
		Because of Chapman’s noble character in the clubhouse and throughout the league, and because he was one of the better shortstops of his day, one might find it a little surprising that Chapman hasn’t garnered more support as a hall-of-fame shortstop.
		But Chapman only played nine major league seasons, not the required 10 (exceptions can be made to the 10-year-rule) and neither his statistics, a.278-career batting clip nor his above-average ability in the field were deemed good enough for the Hall.

	OVERSHADOWED: The 1920 Cleveland Indians
		Success is merely a footnote to the death of Ray Chapman.
		If anything, Chapman’s death led to the use of new, white baseballs, the installation and upkeep of “batter’s eyes” – the fled out section of the field in the line of sight for the batter – and rules to limit the deception a pitcher could use to hide the ball from the hitter.
		Chapman’s replacement, Joe Sewell, hit well enough to cushion the loss of their popular teammate and of course, Sewell went on to a long excellent career filled with an almost complete lack of strikeouts.
