Watervliet high school field last night, cold, clammy, wet. But, Dennis Lane had the home plate area and the mound covered nicely, and by the time the first pitch was thrown there was no rain.

HEY FELLOW CDMSBL PLAYERS: A HEAD'S UP: BELOW IS A REPEAT: THREE MESSAGES AT THE END OF THE LAST DOUBTLESS WAY-TOO-LONG THREAD. WHICH MAY HAVE PUT OFF LOTS OF POTENTIAL READERS.
