a modified idea to modify the mercy rule
(Preview)
Hey guys: My apologies to the 60 or so fellows who waded through my way too long first draft I wrote last night on a way to fix the mercy rule. I should know by now: don't write late. And don't write long. So, here's the shorter version: The mercy rule ends a game in most, or maybe all, of the age divisions, whe...

Whiz Kids oust Cards, advance in playoffs
(Preview)
Joe Burns allowed only four hits, and his teammates supported him with a 5-run 1st inning, as the Whiz Kids defeated the Cardinals 12-3 Thursday night at the A diamond. Unlike today's downpour, there were some sprinkles to welcome us to the field, along with locked gates that weren't opened until 4:5...

Whiz Kids 12, Cards 3
(Preview)
Just stopped by and noticed there was no record of this game on the board. I don't have the book, but figured some of you might want to know. The first inning pretty much told the story. In the top of the frame, the Cards loaded the bases with no outs. Several Whiz Kids got religion at that point, based on the...

Well, the Cubs had that wish come true last night a the A-Diamond in their winner's bracket game vs the 5-time defending champion Giants. The Cubs pounded out 15 hits and scored 12 runs, while playing by far their best game of the ye...

Kane tosses no-hitter! Whiz Kids advance.
(Preview)
Mike Kane threw a no-hitter, and his teammates gave him plenty of support in a 10-0 victory over the Dodgers Monday night at New Scotland. The Dodgers only had two base runners, both in the second inning. Kane allowed a one-out walk to Don Ball, and the next batter hit a fly ball to the outfield, that was d...

In the interest of starting a civil conversation, I want to share my observations relating to the 55+ division season and playoff schedule.

Ball Four, Revisited
(Preview)
Inspired by the recent thread on our board, I reread Jim Bouton's BALL FOUR. I'd read it as a kid, long ago, and forgot every last detail. I sometimes even wonder whatever happened to that kid. Anyway, the book is fast and funny and I recommend it. What was especially great was coming to that last page and...

Do Over has the same outcome.
(Preview)
Last nights do over game (protest replay), had a very similar result as the original. The replay of the bottom of the 4th saw the Whiz Kids storm back int the game with a collection of well placed singles and two Cubs errors. They plated 5 runs to pull to 8-6 before the Cubs could escape that cursed inning....
