Three voices, two games, lots of talent
(Preview)
I've long thought that game write-ups should be a group act. Anyone on each of the teams, and fans in the stands, too, should feel free to write up their gives and takes on the game. More voices can mean smarter. Or, better, funnier. So, three guys on the Americans contribute to this story. I'll start: Th...

Prayers and support out to Mike Girard and his wife

Life is always bigger than baseball. Mike is always one for putting some creative recaps for games played on this board. Last night the 55 yankees played the cubs , and Mike wasnt there. It was kind of strange him not being there. But the yankees team and myself send out prayers and wishes to mikes wife Ma...

62 Yankees vs Peppers at A-Diamond. Last night 7/24
(Preview)
It was warm and muggy last night at the A-Diamond, and no rain. As a rule, I don't write recaps, but some people have asked about the game results. It was a good game to watch and be a part of. The undefeated 11-0 Yankees had Pete Geannelis on the hill and the Peppers had Dave Plew. Both guys went the full 7 inn...

egg on a face
(Preview)
Well, this what you get when you try to write up a game story at 3 a.m., six hours after playing the contest when it's hot and humid and you're gassed: a fat error, followed by a big fried egg on your face. In the first line, I wrote of the July 17 contest between the Americans and Yanks, won by the Yanks 7-6, th...

Effing weather apps!
(Preview)
The GMs' dilemma. It's 4:00 o'clock. You're sitting at a nice field under sunny skies and you are looking at the forecast on your smart phone. Clear skies up until game time. Then, a tiny, little pop-up, yellow-ish, maybe orange-ish ....OK reddish cloud over Watervliet. But only for 10 or 15 minutes....

Close again, but no cee-gar
(Preview)
The Americans and the Peppers played another humdinger on a hot, humid, smoky-aired game on Monday, July 17, and for the third time the unbeaten (10-0 now), first-place Yankees prevailed, and for the second time by a 7-6 score. The game went back and forth, as humdingers do, with the Americans taking...

62 Peppers and Arachnids Play Around Mud
(Preview)
The Arachnids and Peppers were more than a little fortunate to get in a full game on 7-17-23 at New Scotland . Although the field was squishy in many spots, especially around foul territory near the backstop and dugouts, the infield had been dragged, lines put down, and home plate painted very nicely....
