TJ Scorsone and Chris Dunn who were unable to attend our League Banquet back in March, were presented with their Hall of Fame plaques yesterday after our 45 Cubs game at New Scotland. Both players have had stellar careers in our league for multiple decades and are now forever included in the CDMSBL Hal...
Have a sofa/sleeper in excellent condition. Well made/heavy. 38" x 38"x 90". You must pick up. Anthony Torre. Make sure it fits before you take it. If you know someone who is really in need take it for them. see photo.
Perhaps it was the rain, or actually, the constant, ping-ping-ping misty rain irritating your skin that began with the first pitch and never really let up on Sunday afternoon, June 7th, at New Scotland that by the fourth inning just about everybody that's all 10 of us to a side; imagine? 20 guys crazy e...
Joe Burns took the mound and faced off against Jeff Whitehead. The Peppers went quietly in the 1st stranding a runner at second. The Reds got off to a quick start with singles by Miles and Hall to score a run. Mitchell traded places with Hall and with 2 outs Shaw singled and Burns reached to load the bases o...
I have always liked playing at the New Scotland field. Its a hitters field. I like it even more now that significant improvements have been made. An excellent new backstock. Much needed new drainage along the left field fence line. Expanded foul territory in short left. We were fortunate to get the ga...
After what seemed like a three week long malaise of going through baseball motions, the Cubs (the Cubs that have "brought it" for the last 25 years) showed up ready to play! It can NEVER be said enough that pitching & defense wins games! Final Score 6-1 Highlights: Cubs - No errors - Darrel Duncan (n...
The newly renovated New Scotland field with it's expanded foul territory hosted the June 8th contest between New York Cubs and the New York Pirates! A pop-up behind the plate was actually playable and...........caught! - I believe that's a (or an, whatever) historical event at New Scotland. Final...
Fresh off a forgettable showing and narrow 5-3 win against the Americans two days prior, the Cubs gathered in their dugout (players only meeting) early before the game and collectively and enthusiastically vowed to come roaring back on this magnificent Thursday, this day of day prideful reclaim....
Sunday, May 31st, game at 5:30 was supposed to be the game of the day for CDMSBL's Capital Division. Its second game of the season. But ever since the first contest on May 17th, interest in the division has jumped. So, while only one game was set up for the 31st, it turned out that enough people wanted to pl...
On a day that had weather, the 'Murikans (GWB) came to the park ready to play. The Cubs came out a wee bit flatish.....like pancake....that got run over by a furniture delivery truck. It weren't pretty but the Cubs hung on to win as Mike LaBarge's guys scored two in the 7th (to make it 5-3) and threatening...
Finally, some really beautiful perfect temperature baseball at magnificent Watervliet high school field last night. Like I do sometimes when time is a little tight, I will pare down this report. The Dodgers came out swinging in the top of the first scoring two runs on 3 hits. The twins came back in the...
The Arachnids and Yankees met for the first time this season at A Diamond last night. The game got started a little after 8 PM.John Weber started for the Yankees and put the spiders down 1-2-3 in the top of the 1st on 3 infield grounders. The Yankees touched up Arachnids starter TJ Scorsone for five hits a...
My fellow baseball playing and reading fans, I have a nifty baseball experience to tell you about, On Sunday, May 17, twenty-six baseball players, some from the Capital District Senior Baseball League, others not, people just showing up, ranging in age from, oh, Id guess, 30 to 79 (no guessing there...
Loves us some Jim Dalton and crew! Those guys play hard! Cubs just came to the field last night with hitting shoes on! Cubs amassed 20 hits and plated 17. Cubs started Carlos Espada on the mound. Carlos worked out all winter on his pitching mechanics and trying different pitches. It paid off - threw all s...
Wayne Nicholsen was the starter for the Arachnids and Jeffrey Whitehead got the call for the Peppers. New Scotland field. The field was well groomed, but the infield dirt was quite hard even though we had rain recently. Nicholsen yielded two hits to the Peppers in the top of the first, but got out of the...
