I don't have the scorebook, but I can tell you that this game had everything.

The 45+ Cougars and the 55+ Gray Cougars together have five games scheduled in the next six days--and we have only one catcher between the two teams.

The Albany Mutts reached the semi - finals of the Downeast Wood Bat Class, before falling to a very good Central Maine Team.
As the host team, Maine always seems to bring in high quality players for the last day of the tournament, and this year was no exception. A 2-1 Albany lead quickly evaporated in t...
