1963 @ Wichita - Boucher and "Midnight"

July 31, 1962 "Looking Forward - Red Boucher, manager of the state champion Pan Alaska Gold Panners baseball team, expresses his determination to take his team to Wichita, Ka., for the National Baseball Congress tournament for semi-professional state winners, which begins Aug. 17. Boucher has said that sending the team will cost $7,500.  A public subscription campaign has been started here to raise the money, and nearly $2,000 has been collected already.  Boucher said the team should leave here Aug. 13 if it plans to attend the tournament."  (The team DID go, and came within one run of winning the championship, ending the season with a national second-place finish)

 

8/12/8: How to make the 75th NBC tournament special - "Alaska Night. Maybe you pay off one of the local weathermen to create a really cool day at the ballpark. Dave Freeman has that kind of power, right? If not, you at least set aside a night to honor the Alaska tradition that has been so important to the World Series.

From 1969 through 2002, Alaska teams accounted for 15 of 34 championships. The Fairbanks Goldpanners, Anchorage Glacier Pilots, Kenai Peninsula Oilers, Mat-Su Miners and Anchorage Bucs have been great for the tournament and provided some of the best players in its history, such as Tom Seaver (Panners), Dave Winfield (Panners), Rick Monday (Panners), Chris Chambliss (Pilots), Graig Nettles (Panners), Mark McGwire (Pilots), Barry Bonds (Panners) and many others."


Ed Olsen, Paul W. Deese, Ben Hines

10/10/8: 1975 NBC World Series The Boulder, Colo., Collegians snapped Fairbanks, Alaska's string of three straight NBC tournament championships with a 6-4 victory over Fairbanks in the title game.
