Mining rough diamonds in San Diego from 1871 to 1936 Jun 16, 2005
By Alan Lubke
No pun intended, this is a diamond in the rough of sport's books. It is original research, not a second-hand, garden variety, cut-and-paste cookie-cutter. Bill Swank has been consumed by the history of the San Diego Padres of the Pacific Coast League ever since his retirement as a Probation Officer with the County of San Diego. His beautifully written first book, "Echoes from Lane Field", captured the history of the Padres from 1936 to 1958 through first-person interviews with many of the players of that era. For "Baseball in San Diego: From the Plaza to the Padres," Bill had to dig into San Diego's historical archives and talk with the few remaining players from the 1920s and 1930s. The rest of the early ballists went to the dugout in the sky a long time ago. "Plaza" precedes "Echoes", covering the period from 1871 to 1936. In this before-radio era, baseball was more than a metaphor for life. It was the center of life in sunny San Diego for the better part of the year. Swank mined San Diego's rough diamonds and created a gem of a history book. Go San Diegos. Go Bears. Go Pickwicks.

Early Baseball in San Diego May 16, 2009
By Gary Anderson
I'd already heard a lot of this history from my father who started to take me to Lane Field in 1949. However, I was most impressed by the great collection of photos that go along with this excellent history of early San Diego Baseball.
