# Joe Randa

Joseph Gregory Randa (/ˈrændə/; born December 18, 1969) is an American former Major League Baseball player. He was primarily a third baseman during his career. His nickname is "the Joker" due to his resemblance to the comic book character in Batman and his ever-present smile, especially during his plate appearances. It was given to him by Tony Muser, the Kansas City Royals manager during Randa's second tour with the ballclub. This had resulted from Muser having to constantly answer questions about why Randa was always smiling. "I'd tell them that's not a smile, it's his normal look", Muser explained.

## Early life

Randa attended Kettle Moraine High School in Wales, Wisconsin, lettering in football, basketball, baseball, and tennis. Randa's #12 was retired by the Lasers. He is also a member of the Kettle Moraine Laser Trailblazer Hall of Fame.

## Professional career

Randa played minor league for the Eugene Emeralds. He made his major league debut in 1995 with the Kansas City Royals, playing in 34 games. He played the next three seasons as a competitive third baseman with three different teams, hitting .303, .302, and .254 for the Royals, Pittsburgh Pirates, and Detroit Tigers, respectively.
The Royals reacquired Randa prior to the 1999 season. Installed as a full-time third baseman for the first time in his career, Randa hit .314 with 16 home runs and 84 RBIs, establishing himself as a run producer in the middle of the order and a steady fielder at third base. In 2003, Randa set the Kansas City Royals' team record for the most consecutive errorless games by a third baseman, going 75 games without an error. After the 2004 season ended, Randa signed with the Cincinnati Reds as a free agent. On Opening Day, Randa hit the game-winning home run in the bottom of the 9th for Cincinnati in a 7–6 victory. On July 23, 2005, Randa was traded to the San Diego Padres for pitchers Justin Germano and Travis Chick. He was then signed by the Pirates on December 28, 2005, for a one-year contract worth between $3.5 and $4 million. On September 22, Randa broke up Padres pitcher Chris Young's no-hit bid with a pinch-hit home run in the 9th inning. On November 2, 2006, Randa announced his retirement. He batted .284/.339/.426 with 123 HRs and 739 RBIs in 1,522 games over 12 seasons.
Randa is one of only three players in Kansas City Royal history to collect six hits in a nine-inning game, which he did on September 9, 2004 in the first game of a doubleheader against the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park; he went 6-for-7 in a 26–5 Royal blowout win. Bob Oliver had collected six hits in a 1969 (the franchise's inaugural season) game and Kevin Seitzer in 1987. Randa also scored six runs in that game; as of 2019, he is the most recent Major Leaguer to do so.
Randa made his first and only playoff appearance in 2005 with the Padres, hitting .364 in three games.

## Post pro career

Randa works with the Royals' minor league teams as a special assistant.

# Peter Harvey (cricketer, born 1923)

Peter Fairfield Harvey (15 January 1923 – 19 July 2006) was an English cricketer who played first-class cricket for Nottinghamshire from 1947 to 1958.

## Life and career

Harvey was a leg spin bowler, a right-handed batsman and a fine fieldsman. In the early stages of his career he was considered one of the best young players in England. In 1949 Learie Constantine wrote of him: "His big leg-breaks are most difficult to deal with, and put even batsmen like Compton and Edrich on the defensive. He is still young enough to have a good Test career. He is a steady and promising batsman, and definitely a brilliant fieldsman, one of the best in England."
Harvey's best match figures were 11 for 202 against Derbyshire in August 1949, and his best innings figures were 8 for 122 against Somerset a few days later. His most successful season was 1951, when he took 73 wickets and scored 784 runs, including a career-best 150 in six and a half hours against Leicestershire. However, the arrival of the leg-spinners Bruce Dooland and Gamini Goonesena at Nottinghamshire in 1953 relegated Harvey to the Second XI with occasional matches for the first team. Playing for the Second XI in the Minor Counties Championship in 1956 he was the leading wicket-taker in the competition, with 64 wickets at an average of 14.78; he also scored 449 runs at an average of 44.90.
During his playing days, Harvey was employed in the winter by Redmayne and Todd, a sports outfitters in Nottingham. When he retired from cricket he was appointed manager of the Leicester branch of the firm, and he stayed with Redmayne and Todd until he retired.
# Sir Thomas Hare, 5th Baronet

Sir Thomas Hare, 5th Baronet (27 July 1930 – 25 January 1993) was an English first-class cricketer. Hare played first-class cricket for Cambridge University and the Free Foresters in 1953–54.

In between leaving Eton and going up to the University of Cambridge, Hare carried out his National Service with the Coldstream Guards as a second lieutenant in June 1949, with promotion to the rank of lieutenant in December 1950. While at Cambridge he made his debut in first-class cricket for Cambridge University against Sussex at Fenner's in 1953.

# Stanley Hahn

Stanley Thomas Hahn (9 June 1945 – 28 January 1991) was an English cricketer. Hahn was a right-handed batsman who fielded as a wicket-keeper. He was born in Watford, Hertfordshire.
Hahn made his debut for Oxfordshire in the 1964 Minor Counties Championship against Dorset. Hahn played Minor counties cricket for Oxfordshire from 1964 to 1972 which included 34 Minor Counties Championship matches. He made his List A debut against Worcestershire in the 1970 Gillette Cup. In this match he scored 25 runs before being run out. He played a further List A match against Durham in the 1972 Gillette Cup. In his second match, he scored 3 runs before being dismissed by Stuart Young.
Stan Hahn was also a very fine table tennis player who represented both Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire. He was the leading player in Oxford in 1965, 1967, 1971 to 1974 and again in 1976 and 1977. Hahn also forged a formidable doubles partnership, and won many titles, with his long-time team-mate, David Harse ("Harry"). Hahn had a fine all-round game and could defend away from the table with the best of them. However, he was probably happiest when deploying his imaginatively varied, unerringly consistent and pitilessly accurate loops to put his opponents on the defensive. As well as his dominating forehand loop, he was among the first practitioners of the backhand loop, probably the hardest shot in the game. His matchless powers of concentration meant that, although his style demanded the greatest precision, he seldom missed. Though his competitive drive sometimes spilled over into unnerving displays of fury, he played the game fairly and he encouraged many youngsters, who found him to be an approachable and inspiring champion of the game.
He died in Oxford, Oxfordshire on 28 January 1991.
# John Guise (cricketer)

John Lindsay Guise (29 November 1903 – 29 June 1991) was an English first-class cricketer active 1922–34 who played for Middlesex, Oxford University and, in India, for the Europeans. He was born in Calcutta; died in Eastbourne. Guise was a right-handed batsman and a right arm medium pace bowler who played in 94 first-class matches. He scored 3,775 career runs with a highest score of 154* and, as a fielder, held 53 catches. He took 63 wickets with a best analysis of four for 19.
In his 1992 Wisden obituary, Guise is described as one of "the select few who have achieved fame through one big performance". In a 1921 public schools match when he was 17, Guise made a record score of 278 for Winchester College against Eton College at Agar's Plough. Wisden recorded that Winchester had been bowled out for 57 in their first innings on a rain-affected pitch. Eton, batting in better conditions, had taken a lead of 198. At close of play, Winchester in their second innings had made 130 for 3 with opening batsman Guise on 86 not out. On the second day, he "farmed the bowling like a veteran" to score 278 before being run out. Winchester had made 381, which left Eton needing 184 to win; they did so, by seven wickets. After Winchester, Guise went up to Brasenose College, Oxford. His brother, James, also played first-class cricket.
Guise was a schoolteacher by profession, teaching at Winchester, Adams Grammar School in Shropshire and Helston Grammar School in Cornwall between 1927 and 1964. Guise resigned from Helston Grammar due to an incident regarding corporal punishment being administered to two students in his office, for which Guise was fined £50.
