Dick Lazette, president OF
the Toledo Industrial Union
Council, indirectly was the
reason that umpires sweep
home plate off with whisk
brooms.
About 40 years ago, Dick
was bat boy for the Toledo

duty to keep the plate busted
off with a regular broom.
After home plate was cleaned
it was considered bad luck
if the broom was thrown on
the visitors side.
One time when Louisville
came here to play the Mud
Hens, Lazette brushed off
the plate and threw the
broom on the Louisville dug
out side of home plate, and
Johnny Huges, the Blues
catcher, became incensed at
the act and struck Dick. This
led to a free-for-all fight
amongst the players of both
teams. The fight was finally
stopped, but the next day,
Clarence Brick" Owens who
was home plate umpire,
brought his own whisk broom
to keep the base clean. Owens
also explained that, besides
starting the new practice for
the umpires, he didn't want
the bat boys to be the target
of punches and criticisms of
the players.
From that day, the umpires
carried their own whisk
brooms, and the bat boys
were relieved of one of their
duties.
