Anthony Torre hit a 2-out game winning single in the bottom of the 7th to drive in Jesse Braverman, and the Whiz Kids beat the Marlins 6-5 Monday night. Dennis Buckley (WP 1-0) threw 3 innings, allowing just 1 run in relief of Joe Fusaro. The Whiz Kids scored 4 times in the bottom of the 1st. Harry Ferguson...
It was great to see TJ Scorsone in a Hawks jersey. Great competitor and class guy. Hawks started Andy Buchan on the hill. Andy is a quality pitcher for sure and with a little better luck, this 12-1 outcome would have been a lot closer. Not to mention, the Hawks were without Kevin Jackson and Herb Friedman...
"Finding the plate" proved to be difficult for Peppers pitchers, and consequently easy for the opponent, as the Damn Yankees roasted the Red Hot Peppers in a five-inning shortened game Tuesday night at New Scotland. Four of the first five batters were either walked or hit by a pitch, and t...

Fortune smiled on the Bears Monday night as we earned our first victory of the franchise. A banged-up and shortened Cubs squad gave us everything they had but we managed to pull it off by a score of 7-4. The Bears turned a nice double play to end the top of the first inning facing the minimum three batters a...
On a beautiful day for baseball the Yankees were fortunate enough to play two. In the first game we played the shaskys. The game went 8 innings with the final being 6 - 2. Scott Ross was the player of the game going all 8 innings giving up just 4 hits and striking out 3. Hats off to Jim Tesoriero from the shask...

League Officials - please clarify the 12-Run Rule as far as the option to play on after 12-Runs have ended a game. Is there an option to play on (opted by the team ahead) OR is the game over with no option to play on? Everyone should know the answer to this question if you don't already (I actually don't). Th...
