Greetings to all who read this,
I have had some time to read all of the e-mails and the posts of all the Nationals. I have also had some time to cool off after my first reading of some. All of you who know me, know me as a person of great competetiveness and a family man. I do not cheat on my wife, I do not cheat o...
Not long ago I was looking for some video of Walter Johnson's throwing motion. I came across a web-site called YouTube which has all kinds of great video for baseball fans. I thought these videos might be of interest to the CDMSBL community. Just click on each link to watch them. Enjoy!

The Pirates were able to win back to back games on 7/2 and 7/3 against the Cubs - 14-3 and the White Sox - 13-5 respectively. The Cubs kept it close early on until their starting pitcher had to leave with an injury. For the Pirates, Mike Kane pitched an excellent game with a shutout through 6 until the Cubs s...
A chance at making baseball history was lost in the Friday, 6/29 game between the Blue Jays and Cubs. It was a close game with the Jays leading 3-2 and batting when one of those weird innings occured that you can't anticipate. The Jays Mark "Mitch" Mitchell flied out for the first out. Mean...

At Farnsworth Middle School Monday night, the Silvers bested the Shasky's 8-3.
Phil Gadomski picked up his third "W" for the Fish, who got a home run from Randy Craft (his second in as many games).
Friday night at New Scotland the Silver Marlins defeated an injury-depleted Kingston squad
12 - 0, behind 5 solid innings from Jim Ansel and 2 dominant innings from Jim Latore. It was great to see Mr. Latore back on the hill after missing the first half of the season. He had all his pitches working as h...
Today the Albany National played the Cardinals at SUNY Albany, and the actions of manager Herb Carter and player Richard Lanarro during and after the game were rediculous. As is expected at SUNY after the 3:00pm game, the TEAMS are suppose to rake and cover the field. Herb felt this wasn't necessary f...

Congrats to Rick and his group, I aleays enjoy playing you guy's as some good frienships have been formed and see some of you for the l...
Water, water everywhere!
-- Samuel Coleridge, "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner"
I guess the first step is admission: I have a drinking problem. There, I said it.
You see, I read Mike Harts recent post about the importance water and I took it to heart. So all day in preparation f...
In what is becoming a failiar pattern the Yankees opened up a close game late and started the second half of the season by beating the Vets by a final score of 12-2. Highlights of the game included a bases clearing single by Artie Gianakos, adiving catch by Todd Baldwin in center field, a run scoring doub...
It was a rather warm night at Bob Moore on Monday when the Cubs and Reds prepared for what turned out to be a decent game. Both pitchers were effective (sorry Dennis I do not have the name of the Cubs pitcher) and Tony Pilatich for the Reds. Tony coming off an injury that cost him 4 games held the Cubs to 2 hits...

Looking for 2 guys that wish to join us for the evening to play with the Peppers.
If interested, please email Ed Obertubbesing ASAP at edobert@excite.com or call on my c...
Another great night for baseball last night @ Suny, the Met's lost to the Orioles by a score of 6-0. This was a crisp game as it was over in 1 hour 40 minutes. A couples miscues and some timely hits were the keys to victory. Both pitchers were throwing well. Bobby Bolt gave up only 2 hits and Lex only 7 in defea...
Gentlemen,
I have never before today had something that I needed to get off my chest enough to grab a username and post something! I have been an umpire in this league for two years and have been able to build great relationships with many players in all of the divisions. I know that I am just an umpire...
