Friday night at New Scotland, the Cubs and Americans got together for a ballgame on a nice Spring night. The field was in great shape, and the evening was as good as we have seen since the season started. The Cubs bats rung out 19 hits in 4 innings off of 3 Americans pitchers. These 19 hits along with 4 walks...
There's nothing like a good baseball movie to help put a long winter in the rear-view mirror, and to soothe the disappointment of three straight game rainouts to open another season of playing ball. I got my fix tonight watching Moneyball (yet again). There is a scene early in the movie where high scho...
The Pirates jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the top half of the first inning capitalizing on 2 errors, 2 walks, and 2 hits. The Arachnids regrouped in the bottom of the inning and scored 4 times to take the lead they would not relinquish. 2 more runs in the second gave the home team a 6-3 lead and it stayed that way...
The Anacrids' scribe Jim Edelman already covered well the facts of the Spidermen's 6-4 win over the Americans to open the over-62 season. So what's left? For this player, it's rediscovering the game and its players. To wit, I've found that there's such a thing as the "three-inning seasonal warmup" t...
The visiting Americans opened the game loading the bases via 2 walks and a Twins error. However, Twins pitcher Jeff Whitehead hung in and Houdinied his way out of the jam without a run scoring. The bottom of the first saw the Twins score 2 runs on 1 hit, 2 walks, and a hit batter off starter Rich Garbarino....
During the day it looked like a Florida Day sun shining blue skies till 5:29 then the dark clouds rolled in, looked like war of the worlds , and rain all around us but New Scotland was dry. Yankees win in walk off fashion. 4-3 yankees had 9 guys 3 New rookies to the division. Doug (I dont typically play the fi...
Familiar foes: the Cubs and the Whiz Kids got together for the 55+ season opener at a much improved B-Diamond last night. The weather felt more like football weather, but both teams made the best of it. The defending champs (Whiz) jumped out to a 1-0 lead, off of Cubs' starter (and 55+ division rookie) C...
The 62s third season got rolling on a chilly but clear evening at New Scotland field last night. Both teams had rather cold bats . The Americans had 6 hits and they all came in the 4th inning off lefty starter Kenny Wellington who was given one inning too many as he had held the home team hitless through 3. L...

Looking for some added support with a bottle drive! I'm asking players to drop bottles off to the field. Bottles can be in placed by the first base dugout on the outfield side where I can pick them up. This spring, we have several guys who are training at Curbys Wrestling Club. In addition, they will be co...
