Over-62 Americans win finale with the Mike-Mike-Mike and Mike battery
(Preview)
If your name was "Mike" on Friday, August 11, and you were at New Scotland field, in an Americans uniform, then the chances were good that the team manager, also named Mike, would give you hill time. Because that's what it was, the Mike-Mike battery, three times over in an important game for the America...

A tip of the cap to the high-flying Arachnids
(Preview)
In the blink of an eye, the two-time 62s champion Yankees went from 12-0 to the No. 2 seed. The Arachnids' 6-5 victory over the Yankees last night at Watervliet HS -- the identical score of their triumph less than a week ago over the unbeaten champs -- literally secured the league title for a Spiders team...

62 Cardinals and Arachnids Play at Superb Lorenz Field, Saugerties
(Preview)
Follow 9W South along the Hudson paralleling the Mighty Catskill Mountains until you arrive in Saugerties. I know some dont like driving that far to a game, but personally, I love the scenic beauty of the trip and Lorenz Field is an absolute gem. The entire complex there is unrivaled by most other town...

Pirates reverse their fates, win under stress & claim their first "Hurrah!"
(Preview)
The over-62 Pirates showed up at Watervliet High for their Wednesday August 2nd contest against the Americans undermanned, with just ten guys, tired after two games played in two days (one a heart-breaking late-game loss), facing a third contest in three days, and, if that weren't enough, limping...

Dodgers find the way
(Preview)
Thursday started the same way most of our game days have started this summer - with the threat of rain. Showers from 2:00 to 3:00. Thunderstorms at 4:00, 5:00 and 6:00. Rain from 7:00 until midnight. Text messages going back and forth in the morning. Should we play? I don't know. WTF? But,, with no rain b...

"Specs" surprises and delivers for over-62 Americans
(Preview)
In the battle for third place in the over-62 division, Ralph Caputo wore eyeglasses. He spied an opening. And he hit into it. If that hit didn't make all the difference, it came close. Once again, geezer me is working here without the scorebook, so what you see here is essentially memory, also known as "...

Looking for subs? Here's some food for thought.
(Preview)
I get called fairly often by GMs looking for subs. Partly because there aren't many old guys who want to sub as a catcher. Partly because I generally say yes when asked to sub. But mostly because the five or six guys who the GMs called before they called me said no. Maybe we should offer those first 5 or 6 pla...

Whiz Kids spoil Cubs undefeated season.
(Preview)
The Whiz Kids and Cubs met last night at the A-Diamond in game 3 of their regular season meetings. The Cubs won the first two meetings, and were 12-0 coming into the game. The only two blemishes on the Whiz Kids' record came from the Cubs. The Cubs opened the scoring, in the bottom of the 1st inning. Chris D...
