Having to play two 9 inning games, in one day, at the age of 55-65, is hard enough. Doing that on a day with not a cloud in the sky, and 95 degree heat, proved to be too much for the Braves. Most of the Burlington Angels, are from Southern California and have played many more games than us in this kind of heat, a...
Tonight the Albany Braves will be getting together for the final time at New Scotland for our last tune up before we head west to Phoenix. Jim McQuade and John Reel have put together a very good team to represent Albany, in the MSBL World Series (55+ division), and to honor our friend, Tom Maney. Tom, as m...
The CDMSBL broke out the big bats and dominated in the pitching and defense categories to take the series against the BABL in an 11-0 win on Saturday. The Massachusetts boys got the first two hitters on with back-to-back singles off CDMSBL starter Jerry Solomon; but Solomon induced a popup to the catc...
As you can see in the post below, this is just a kids game we are all still blessed to be playing and can be put in perspective easily enough to even the most untrained of eyes when something as poignant as happened in Darnell's life yesterday... If life hasn't already dealt him enough tragic blows, and wh...

On a day when each team only played with the bare minimum number of players, your CDMSBL stars took care of business and evened the series at 1-1 with a win on Saturday. With only nine players in each lineup, every spot in the order got a minimum of 5 plate appearances against some good pitching making thi...

Gentlemen, I don't know how long we have had a bulletin board but I know it has been awhile. This will be my first post ever. I wanted to do this two weeks ago but it has taken me this long to figure out why my "pending member" sign in was taking so long. A few weekends ago the 45 division was engaged in playoff f...
Attention CDMSBLers: I am in need of about three more players for a game against the BABL this weekend. We have nine players right now but I'd like to have a couple of players for cycling in-and-out of the game as well as to cover any possible shortages due to injury and whatnot. Most importantly, I would...

The New York Giants won a doubleheader on saturday............woo-hoo! Pitching & Defense! Love playing on the Chatham field. You can actually dive after a ground ball and not end up needing a skin graft afterward.Nice! Brewers did a great job getting the field ready - it was perfect AND it was O...
The fall-ball matchup between the guys from the BABL and the CDMSBL was an epic battle of great baseball and the Berkshire boys downed your hometown heroes by a score of 7-5 on a ninth inning rally. The game got off to a great start when Jerry Solomon of the 33+ Padres took care of the top of the order in 1-2-...
Firstly, a hearty congratulations to the Braves for ousting the Cubs and making the Final Four. They are certainly a very solid team with an outstanding GM and extremely bright future with the core group they have in place. Secondly, well, Dave Smitherman's outstanding pitching; Bob Altobelli's i...
