So I've been looking for Mike's recap of the Dodgers ~ Cubs rematch of last years 35 Championship, but I'd settle for at least a score??? The silence is hurting my ears!!!
On a beautiful NS Fri evening - the unbeaten Whiz and Americans squared off with Chris Abrams and Brad Buchan going for their respective squads. The Whiz struck early with a run in the 1st on singles by Tom Maney, Ralph Caputo, Billy Smith and Abrams. A hard liner by Darrel Duncan to Ken Zimmer at SS who th...
I just remembered (miracle I remember anything at this age) that Dave Van Wormer preferred that I publish the game results last year, so I'll assume nothing has changed. This was the opener for both teams. But the defense and pitching were in playoff form. Each team had 13 players and everyone was in th...
Due to heavy rain and very wet conditions, the 45 division game between the Vets and Cougars has been postponed. -- Edited by MrJ on Tuesday 15th of May 2012 12:33:36 PM
On another beautiful Saturday morning at New Scotland, the Cubs improved their record to 3-0, with a 7-2 victory over the defending champion Dodgers. The game opened like a championship prize fight where both the combatants each landed early haymakers. The Dodgers first two hitters (Mick Novac an...
Went to Bethel Saturday to see the site of the 1969 festival. Kicking myself in the butt now because I turned down a friend who had one seat left in his 1964 Buick LaSabre. He and four buddies saw history, and I now marvel at the site of what is called the defining cultural moment of the '60s. If you ever have...
Going off memory here, so it's gonna be short and sweet. Reds got by the Sox 5-4. Joe Burns got the win, Jerry Solomon took the loss. Joe Burns had 2 hits for the Reds, with (5?) others pitching in w/RBI singles. Mark Lennox had a big 2 run double for the Sox in the top of the 7th to get it to 5-4, but Burns struck...
On a beautiful day (finally) the Dodgers faced off against the Blue Jays at the Satellite Field. Dodgers got off to a good start with leadoff hitter Newcomb hit by a pitch and #2 hitter Corrigan reaching on a walk. After a double steal to get both runners in scoring position Newcomb scored on a groundout...
It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon at VHS field. The sun was shinning, hardly any clouds, just a perfect day to play ball. The Nolan Propane Cardinals beat the gutsy,never say die Gray Cougars in 5 innings. Earl Mitchell pitched a 2 hit game for the Cards for the win. Jim Latorre came in for the final t...
Finally, some nice baseball weather! Not a cloud in the sky and temperatures in the upper 70's, as the Cyclones staged an improbable comeback---scoring 8 runs in the 5th inning to overtake the Shasky's, 12-11 in a game shortened to 6 innings because of impending darkness. And, somehow, we did it on on...
Sorry for the late report but the stripers were on the feed for the entire week following the game. First things first ..... for any of you that fish this is the best striper run up here in 10+ years Anyway... week 1 saw the Dodgers upend the Cyclones 15-14 in a cold, ugly, error filled evening th...
The Cubs took the first of 3 games with the A's in 2012, 6-1. Phil Gadomski pitched the first 6 innings, giving up just one run. Steve Lounello was overpowering in his one inning of relief, striking out 2. The Cubs scored 5 times in the 4th inning to decide the game, with the help of a brief bought of wildnes...
