Great sticky night for baseball at friendly New Scotland last night. The Arachnids put four on the board in the top of the first but that seeming comfort zone did not last. The Americans chalked up 5 in the bottom of the inning to take a one run lead. After a scoreless second inning the rest of the game belo...
Weve been looking forward to this heat all year and now its here. Baseball weather. We are the luckiest guys I know. Were playing the game. Trying. Ill shorten this report a bit compared to my last entry. Rick Knipper on the mound to start the game for the Pirates against Twins starter Jeff Whitehead who...
Hi 55'ers. I'm getting a jump on the 2023 season. We've regurlarly struggled to get 9 guys at games this year (getting 7 is a good day). We have 5 or 6 guys who are solid and make just about every game. I'm sure it's the same for one or two other teams as well. So, I'm thinking (always dangerous territory)......
On a perfect day for baseball was a chilly 93 felt like101 degrees at B diamond. Bobby never aging Bolt on the bump for the whiz , baffled hitters all night long. Whiz took an early lead off Yankees starter Me! Yankees took the lead midway through to 4-3 on a couple uncharacteristic plays by the usual soli...
Ouch. Four straight losses over nearly a month's time. The head spins. Legs wobble. Straight walking is difficult. On Monday, July 11th at New Scotland, a fifth straight defeat is near. The fourth-place, over-62 Peppers are three innings, a mere nine outs, from another thumping, this time to then s...
The 55 Twins and Dodgers descended on pristine Watervliet High School Field for their second of three regular season games last night . Both teams were short handed as the Dodgers had just 9 players including the excellent borrowed catcher Tim Burns and the Twins 10 including borrowed Pete Zamory. T...
This one was over quickly, very quickly. The Cubs jumped out to a 5-0 lead over the Yankees, in the top of the 1st inning. Paul Miles singled and stole second. After a strikeout of the Cubs' second hitter, Mike Girard doubled Miles home; Mike Reutter followed with booming RBI double, that looked like it...
Thanks to everyone from the CDMSBL that participated in the "Old Timer's Night" at the Amsterdam Mohawks game. A good time was had by all even though the game was mostly played before a late arriving crowd. Another night of good exposure for our Division's and Lex Herrlett even got to throw out the firs...
The Yankees and Cubs got together on beautiful Thursday night at New Scotland, for a battle between the 6-2 Damn Yankees and the 5-3 Cubs. The Cubs were treated to a visit from longtime friend and CDMSBL all-time best shortstop Randy Craft. Randy is now 68 years old and fighting for his life with a serio...
After putting up football scores in our first meeting, the Dodgers and Giants had their bats and track shoes primed for game two. And with consecutive singles by Trinchillo, Lane, Alston and Bradley to plate two runs in the top of the 1st and Kegan and Maguire hitting base knocks to start the Giants' ha...
We are still looking for more players to play a 2 or 3 inning exhibition game at Shuttleworth Park on Monday July 11 at 5 pm. So far we have 8 or 9 commitments and could use more. This is great exposure for our leagues and could lead to more people wanting to become members of a team. If you are doing nothing th...
