The Reds moved to 9 - 3 with a 5 inning, 18 -1 win over the Cyclones Sunday afternoon at New Scotland. Offensively, the Reds were led by Ed Class, who added 4 more hits and 3 RBI to raise his average to close to .600 for the season. Dave Schillinger added 3 hits and Handford, Collins and Legge chipped in 2 hits...
The Cubs would get Ron Massaroni his first win of the 2011 season on Saturday afternoon versus the Orioles. Ron has an ERA well south of 2.00, but has been extremely unlucky, as he has been on the mound every time the Cubs bats did not hold up their share of the bargain. Well, the Cubs would make up for that o...
Phil Gadomski was a last minute decision as starter for the Golden Marlins on Saturday morning. That was only because he threw 5 very full innings on Thursday night, in a game that ended at 10:30 pm at Bob Moore. The Saturday 9:30 am start gave him just 36 hours rest. Well as far as last minute decisions go...
Someone once told me that 70% of all doubleheaders are splits. Well the Giants and Golden Marlins did not disprove that theory last Sunday. The Golden Marlins won game one behind the solid starting pitching of Phil Gadomski, backed up by a 12 hit performance from the offense. Mash threw a complete gam...
Can someone do us a huge favor ? The 45 Blue Jays and Cyclones have a 11:45 am game at the VHS on Sunday. Can someone please check the condition of the field so all of the guys don't waste another trip all the way up there? Please let ArtieG.{Blue Jays} and Harold Jenkins {Cyclones} know.Maybe after the las...
"IN THE BASEBALL JUSTICE SYSTEM, THE PLAYERS ARE REPRESENTED BY TWO SEPARATE YET EQUALLY IMPORTANT GROUPS: THE LEAGUE OFFICIALS WHO MAINTAIN ORDER AND THE BULLETIN BOARD PUNDITOCRACY WHO SHOOTS FROM THE HIP. THESE ARE THERE STORIES." (Insert "ding-ding" sound effect her...
Has Jamie Duncan worked another miracle to save the day, or has Mother Nature wiped out another beautiful day of baseball?! We need to let our Brothers travelling from Kingston, Massachussetts, and Vermont know soon if these games are cancelled or delayed.

Bad timing and injuries have left my Oriole team in need of a few guys to play the Cubs tomorrow in Pittsfield, at beautiful Waconah park. 12:15pm game, with an invite to consume beverages at Tommy Smith's house party on the way home. (You don't mind if I invite them do you Tommy?) Anyways....if you're i...
Unfortunetly rain has again washed away our chance to play at Wahconah Park tomorrow. All games have instead been moved to New Scotland on the following schedule: Marlins @ Blue Thunder 9:30am New Scotland Town Park Orioles @ Cubs 12:00pm New Scotland Town Park Padres @ Brooklyn Dodgers 2:30pm New S...
We had a game scheduled at Voorheesville High field but the game was forfeit, the field was un-playable anyway, second and third base areas were muddy, the rest of the dirt portion of the infield is very bumpy and the grass portion of the infield is covered with goose droppings, there is a game schedule...
Fellow baseball players. I don't often post anything on this board, but after reading Mr. Girard's comments, I feel compelled to say something. I have been in this league for about 12 years. This is my first year with the Cougars. For the most part, I'm having a good time. I play all the time, and yes I end...
The Reds had first licks in this one, and they plated 3 runs, in the bottom of the 1st. All three runs were unearned as the Cubs committed 3 errors. With the sloppy top of the first behind them, the Cubs did not sit and pout about it. They got their hitting shoes on and pounded out 5 hits and induced two walks a...
The Whiz Kids called upon a few of their veteran warhorses to beat the Damn Yankees on Wednesday evening at New Scotland in a big 55s matchup. Darrell Duncan turned in a dominating performance on the mound and Billy Smith provided the big bat with a pair of hits and 3 RBI as the Kids defeated the Yankees 4-...
