The game was never in doubt as the Cubs erupted for 5 runs in the first inning, and 6 more in the second....
Final game of pool play matched us up against the Atlanta giants. A previous fall classic championship team a few years ago and always a tough game between the two teams. Giants jump out to an early 3-0 lead took it to 4-0 in the 5th. Carlos Espada got his Florida pitching debut holding the Giants off bala...
Today was the grueling double header day. With having to play the Ct top hats who were 3-0 first game Yankees were on the road and didnt take long for the bats to start rolling.

This is a first for me! Being on a team that beats a team from Puerto Rico is definitely a first for me. The Cubs handed the ball to Jimmy Konstantakis to hopefully get 5 or 6 innings of solid pitching, and then we would "piece together" the back half of the game, depending on the game situation. Jimmy start...
WE were proud in hearing of the 55 team getting their victory and we are trying to show what ALBANY Ny teams have to offer, the 45s div Yankees played the bux mont cubs and those boYS CAN plain out hit unfortunately for them the albany yankees play some stellar defense. Snagging ground balls and line driv...
The story of today's game starts with Albany's outstanding pitching. Bob Bolt saw his first action of the tournament (and it won't be his last) in starting game three against a tough NJ Reds line up that came into the game undefeated (including a game one win over Puerto Rico). He was masterful, going 5...

The Albany Cubs faced a tough Montgomery County Yankees team that is a perennial playoff participant here at the Fall Classic. The Yankees pitcher was a crafty lefty, that while not being overpowering, was adept at getting ground balls and keeping the ball off of the barrel of the Cubs' bats all game l...
