Ron Coon muscled a two-run homer during a three-run 4th to lift Kingston past the Giants Friday night at West Albany.
Coon didn't get it on the barrell, but he was strong enough to loft an off-speed pitch by Jim K. over the fence in center. The three runs came after two outs and no one on.

Yep...the #1 play in today's top 10 plays of the day was made by Jordan Johnson on the Colonie 12 year old District Championship All Star game against Tri Village.

On a nice night for Baseball in kingston Wednesday, the Mets took the season series with a 6-3 complete game victory from Chris Dunn. A very close game that was 2-2 after 1, then the Hummers scored 1 to take a 3-2 lead in the bottom of the 4th. We scored 4 in the top of the 5th with 2 outs. and Chris made it all st...
On a gorgeous evening in Voorheesville, the Whiz Kidz came out to play ball against Blue Thunder in the season finale between these two teams. Behind the terrific pitching of Rich Garbarino, a two run base hit from Tim Brown and the flexibility of both teams (who both, at times, during the game were sho...
In what could be best classified as an old-fashioned street fight, the Sox came out on top of the Reds 17-11. Sox had 20 hits, while the Reds made the most of their 9.
Sox plated one in the first only to be countered by 2 for the Reds. Each scored three in the third. Sox thought they were on cruise control af...
First things first - Kudos to whoever is responsible for Bob Moore. It was already a nice place to play, but the ramp on the left side of the infield has been eliminated and the dugouts are awesome.
Sox struck for four in the first as Gramuglia, Glenmeyer, Novak, Noto and Smith all reached safely befor...
Did anyone hear what I swear I heard while watching the MLB All-Star game Tuesday night?
One of the announcers said Dan Uggla grew up in Schenectady, N.Y.
His profile says he was born in Kentucky. Does anyone know if he ever lived in this area?

Have the playoff schedules for the 37s and 46s been set up yet?
With players and umpires trying to plan Aug. vacations, etc., it would be nice to get those schedules on the Web site so guys will know how to coordinate their family/baseball lives.
Thanx.

On a beautiful night for baseball, the Highlanders outlasted the Braves on Wednesday night at New Scotland Field. Roohan was the winning pitcher and Beck was the losing pitcher. The game was tighter than the score would indicate as the Highlanders were fortunate enough to bunch some hits for seven r...
In a crisp, fast-moving game on Tuesday at sunny New Scotland, the Gray Cougars shaded the Americans by the score of 6- 5. The lovably crusty Rich Frank got the start and the win for the Cats. Despite having pitched only one inning so far this season, he was truly at the top of his game, yielding only two un...
Joey Fitzgerald tossed a two-hitter and the Giants remained in an offensive funk as the Cibbies dropped the Giants tp 6-7 with a win at West Albany.
Mike Hicks doubled and Steve Lounello singled for the Giants lone hits. The Giants have scored just two runs in their last three games.

Reds & Braves: I just worked on the SUNY field from 12:30 to 1:45. I removed appx 95% of the standing water and raked the remaining wet spots. Given four hours of sunny, breezy conditions and a little pregame touching up, I think the field will be ready. I don't know who is the home team but I will be the...
