Who Were the Spiders?

The Cooper family was about to move because Dad had a new job in Colorado. He had been out of work for a year, and Natalie and Mason knew he had been unhappy, but now a new job was making things look better. As Dad said, “Every cloud has a silver lining.”

Dad was already in Colorado, but Mom stayed behind so that the twins Natalie and Mason could finish fifth grade at Oak School. Today, Natalie and Mason were helping to pack boxes, and they enjoyed looking at the old treasures, especially the photo albums.

Natalie picked up a photo of a baseball team. The men’s uniforms had CLEVELAND printed on them. Someone had written 1895 on the photo.

Mason asked Mom, “Is there a famous baseball player in our family?”

“I don’t know of anyone in my family, but maybe there was someone in your dad’s family,” she said, “so remember to ask about the photo when you talk to your dad tonight.”

That night, Dad called, and Mason was eager to talk to him. “Dad, we found a photo today of a baseball team that played in 1895. Did one of your relatives play on a team a long time ago?”

Dad said, “It’s familiar, but I don’t know the story. Some of the photos are my father’s, so why don’t you call him and see if he knows?”

Grandpa Ken recalled that a relative played for a Cleveland team, a cousin of his great-grandfather whose last name was Zimmer. So, Grandpa suggested they look up early Cleveland teams.

Mason and Natalie headed for the computer and found a baseball encyclopedia. They discovered three early Cleveland teams: Cleveland Blue, 1879–1884; Cleveland Infants, 1890–1890; and Cleveland Spiders, 1887–1899.

Mason shouted, “We found the answer! Our 1895 photo must show the Cleveland Spiders.”

They looked for Cleveland Spiders and found an article. A new Cleveland ballpark had opened on May 2, 1891. Cy Young was the starting pitcher, and Zimmer was listed as one of the players. “That’s the cousin of our great-great-grandfather!” said Natalie.

Mason wanted to know more, so they searched a baseball almanac. In 1895, the team came in second. But in 1899, the Spiders were baseball’s worst team. Zimmer was a player on both teams. “Oh, well, you can’t win them all,” Natalie said.

“Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise,” Mom suddenly called from downstairs. It was time for bed! They would have to find out more about the Cleveland Spiders tomorrow.

Read the poem, and answer these questions.

“I Was a Skinny Tomboy Kid” By Alma Luz Villanueva I was a skinny tomboy kid who walked down the streets with my fists clenched into tight balls. I knew all the roofs And back yard fences, I liked traveling that way sometimes not touching the sidewalks for blocks and blocks it made me feel victorious somehow over the streets. I liked to fly from roof to roof the gravel falling away beneath my feet, I liked the edge of almost not making it. And the freedom of riding my bike to the ocean and smelling it long before I could see it, and I traveled disguised as a boy (I thought) in an old army jacket carrying my fishing tackle to the piers, and bumming bait and a couple of cokes and catching crabs sometimes and selling them to some Chinese guys and I’d give the fish away, I didn’t like fish I just liked to fish— and I vowed to never grow up to be a woman and be helpless like my mother, but then I didn’t realize the kind of guts it often took for her to just keep standing where she was. I grew like a thin, stubborn weed watering myself whatever way I could believing in my own myth transforming my reality and creating a legendary/self every once in a while late at night in the deep darkness of my sleep I wake with a tenseness in my arms and I follow it from my elbow to my wrist and realize my fists are tightly clenched and the streets come grinning and I forget who I’m protecting and I coil up in a self-mothering fashion and tell myself it’s o.k.


1. The speaker mentions “believing in my own myth,” “transforming my reality,” and “creating a legendary self.” In your opinion, what might she mean by each of these phrases?

2. Does the speaker’s childhood behavior seem familiar to you, or does it seem unusual? Explain your answer.
