| 释义 |
Baseball careerBorn in Oakland, California, Devine was an outfielder in the minor leagues,[1] and was on the spring training roster of the Boston Red Sox in 1917, but never advanced to the majors.[3] He managed a local team in Seattle during World War I,[1] scouted with Seattle Rainiers, and managed a baseball team in Calgary before joining the Pittsburgh Pirates organization. After the Pirates he managed the Mission Reds of San Francisco.[1] By 1932 he was hired by Paul Krichell to be the New York Yankees chief scout in the West.[1] He also signed Andy Carey, Jerry Coleman, Fenton Mole, Johnny Lindell, Cliff Mapes, Charlie Silvera,[4] and Leo Righetti.[5][6][7] Scouting styleDevine's scouting style was similar to Krichell's; he not only looked for ability, but also checked a player's personality and character to see if they could handle the pressure of playing for the Yankees.[4] He also looked for size, signing only two players under {{convert|6|ft|2|spell=in}} in height.[4] Joe Devine Airway ParkShortly after his death in 1951, the ballpark in Boise, Idaho, was renamed Joe Devine Airway Park. The team had just become a Yankees' affiliate and Devine had played for the Boise Irrigators of the Union Association.[8] References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite book|title=Joe Dimaggio: The Hero's Life |first=Richard Ben|last=Cramer|publisher=Simon & Schuster|isbn=0-684-85391-4|year=2000|page=66}} 2. ^{{cite news|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=cDIpAAAAIBAJ&sjid=_00DAAAAIBAJ&pg=5504%2C4323515 |work=Deseret News |location=(Salt Lake City, Utah) |agency=United Press |title=Yankee hunter, Joe Devine dies on Coast |date=September 22, 1951 |page=A3}} 3. ^{{cite book|title=Babe: the legend comes to life |first=Robert|last=Creamer|publisher=Simon & Schuster|isbn=0-671-21770-4|year=1974|page=135}} 4. ^1 2 {{cite news |title=All California Lineup by 1950, Scout Joe Devine Aim|author=Emmons Bryne |newspaper=The Sporting News |date=February 18, 1948 |page=9 }} 5. ^ 6. ^{{cite web |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=-iDcR0R6-N0C&pg=PA41&lpg=PA41#v=onepage&q&f=false |publisher=Can He Play?
