Blue Jays get a little extra beach time in FL
(Preview)
If the Cubs yesterday laid an egg, today the Blue Jays fell like Humpty Dumpty and found themselves all scrambled on the beaches of western Florida. It was a disappointing end to the tournament as Blue Jay bats, gloves, and arms all seemed to check out early in a 17-2 drubbing by the Berks County Bombers...

Cubs do enough to earn a bye in the first round of the playoffs.
(Preview)
The Cubs ran into another "junker-baller" pitcher, in the morning game, and again it proved to be their undoing. While the Cubs were able to muster 14 hits, those 14 hits only translated into 4 runs. Three or four hard line drives found the gloves of Delaware defenders, and 1 even found the h...

Cubs remain at the top of the standings with a hard fought win.
(Preview)
The Cubs were expecting a walk-over against a Louisville Colonels team that had a less than stellar record at this tournament over the past 10 years, and were 0-2 coming into the game. Well we got a lot different Louisville team last night! The Colonels not only gave us a great game, but they led 3-2 as la...

We entered the tourney with a roster of 14 guys, but we suffered 2 injuries (1 calf and 1 thumb) the week before as guys played in other age divisions. Today, we added 2 hamst...

Bad day for team Albany
(Preview)
Team Albany coached by Steve Vangelder dropped two games today at the Blue Jays Complex in Dunedin. Albany lost the first game to the NJ Reds by a score of 13-6. The inability of the Albany pitchers to throw strikes consistently was the teams downfall. In the second game Albany dropped a lopsided loss t...

The Capital District Cubs are finishing our preparations for our run in the 2014 Fall Classic in Clearwater, Florida (45+ Wood Bat Central Division). Two years ago, a similar bunch made a run all of the way to the semi-finals, where we ran into a fully sponsored team and came up just a little short. This...
