Gentlemen, I have been asked by a few guys why when they signed up for this BB it comes up as pending. Sadly, I do not have the answer. The BB is a different company than or websites. All I can tell you is to contact Q. Jensen and see if he can help. He is the admin person for the BB. His name appears at the bottom l...
To understand how the over-62 Americans rallied from a 7-0 deficit in the third frame to edge the Pirates, 10-8, in seven innings on Monday night at New Scotland, it probably helps to overhear what Don Ball said to me as we were sitting on the bench watching our team rally. And to do that, it's necessary t...
The 62 Pirates are playing back-back-back this week, and then 55s on Thursday. Could really use some help on Tuesday and Wednesday as we are extremely short. Positions do not matter, we'll work with it. Please let men know if interested asap. jamesbdalton@yahoo,com Text - 518-221-9499 Please leav...
I've long thought that game write-ups should be a group act. Anyone on each of the teams, and fans in the stands, too, should feel free to write up their gives and takes on the game. More voices can mean smarter. Or, better, funnier. So, three guys on the Americans contribute to this story. I'll start: Th...
Life is always bigger than baseball. Mike is always one for putting some creative recaps for games played on this board. Last night the 55 yankees played the cubs , and Mike wasnt there. It was kind of strange him not being there. But the yankees team and myself send out prayers and wishes to mikes wife Ma...
The Twins and Whiz met at the New Scotland field last night. Starting for the Whiz was Jeff Friedman, for the Twins it was Jeff Whitehead. Both pitchers got through the 1st inning unscathed. Top of the 2nd saw the Twins getting things going. With 2 outs Greg Briscoe hit a single, followed by a single from...
Storms all around the area again last night, but they stayed away from B Diamond and we were able to get the game in. In a nut shell, the Twins scored early and often pulling steadily away from the hard hitting Giants team . Final score Twins win 11-4. Mike Clary led the Giants offense collecting 3 hits in 3...
It was warm and muggy last night at the A-Diamond, and no rain. As a rule, I don't write recaps, but some people have asked about the game results. It was a good game to watch and be a part of. The undefeated 11-0 Yankees had Pete Geannelis on the hill and the Peppers had Dave Plew. Both guys went the full 7 inn...
No game tonight at NS 7/24 due to bad weather. Arachnids' vs Pirates postponed. Makeup date 8/15 at 5:30pm at New Scotland. -- Edited by MrJ on Monday 24th of July 2023 03:28:51 PM
The Giants and the Whiz squared off last night at the A Diamond. The Giants got things rolling in the top of the 1st inning off of Whiz pitcher Jeff Friedman. Leadoff batter Paul Scutieri got things going with a lead off double. The 2nd batter, George Perry walked, followed by a Carlos Llera base hit to lo...
Well, this what you get when you try to write up a game story at 3 a.m., six hours after playing the contest when it's hot and humid and you're gassed: a fat error, followed by a big fried egg on your face. In the first line, I wrote of the July 17 contest between the Americans and Yanks, won by the Yanks 7-6, th...
The GMs' dilemma. It's 4:00 o'clock. You're sitting at a nice field under sunny skies and you are looking at the forecast on your smart phone. Clear skies up until game time. Then, a tiny, little pop-up, yellow-ish, maybe orange-ish ....OK reddish cloud over Watervliet. But only for 10 or 15 minutes....
Due to a rash of injuries and conflicts, the 62-Pirates are looking for a couple of subs to round out the line-up You'll look good in black and gold! for Friday, 7/21 6:00pm a Saugerties. In particular, we are in need of help at catcher, and corner infield (1B,3B). Reply to: jamesbdalton@yahoo.com, or...
