Before I get to the game notes, I want to say that as badly as the Bears need wins, it really sucks to win in the fashion in which we did. Yes it was exciting, yes it was a walkoff; but it was only the sixth inning of a game that started at 5:45. I'm not sure what the league can do about it, but the fact that we had to...
Last night at the Bob the Indians took on the second place Yankees and the match up lived up to its billing with the Indians holding on for a hard fought 4-3 win led by Jami Burnetter complete game. Lex Hurlett tossed a gem as well. BJ Roberts stayed hot with 2 hits and a run scored and Fernando Robleno RBI do...

It's not very often that a regular season baseball game will make you reevaluate your life, but last week after suffering what was likely the worst defeat in the history of baseball on any level, the Bears bounced back strong with two well played games this week - a 5-4 loss to the Reds on Monday in a very c...

To those who played last evening's game the ruling that should have been applied and wasn't, is rule 605g. The batter should have been called out and both runners should have been returned to their respective bases. Intent of the batter is immaterial. -- Edited by wanewcomb on Tuesday 28th of June 201...
... Shortly after learning of the death of Darrell's father, the 55 Giants took the field - but should have stayed home. Whiz Kids scored 5 in the first, 5 in the second and the rout was on. The Giants were mercy-ruled for the second time in two years, this time 17-2. Last year, Marlins beat the Giants 18-4...

He most certainly left a legacy on his family and friends that will carry on in perpetuity. The wake will be Wednesday in...
Ballers, I'm (RAKE Bats) clearing out my remaining inventory for 2016. I have limited pieces of lumber left and they need to go. I'm getting ready to order billets for 2017 - my wood supplier has given me a huge incentive for ordering billets early for 2017! Mostly, I have bigger barrel bats left - 33", 3...
