Tonight's 55+ game between the Cardinals and the Cubs has been moved from the C-Diamond in Schenectady (under water), to Watervliet High School. Many thanks to Dennis Lane for working this out for us! Don't know what we would do without him!!!

Bad hops, (depending on your perspective of course), diving catches?, and bobbled balls all around. the pitching ignored these antics and plowed ahead. Kent for the Nisky Warriors and Jimmy K for the Marlins. I liken it to some kind of civil w...
Should TWO teams, in the top 4, end up with identical win/loss records, after all 16 games, how do we break the ties? Assume that the two team have beat each other twice, during the regular season, so head to head record is out as a tie breaker. ... and go!

The Cubs bounced back nicely from their first loss of the season on Monday, with a 13-0 win over the short-handed Whiz Kids.
