You might have thought we were at Wrigley Field last night instead of UAlbany. The players on the left side not only had the sun but wind as well. Kevin Jackson faced off against Joe Burns and it was the Highlanders getting off to a rapid start with 5 hits and 3 runs in the first with the Reds only managing 1 h...
On Tues., Giants led Peppers 4-0 in the 3rd and we get rained out.
On Thur. nite, Giants led Hummin' Birds 6-5 top of the 5th and we get lightning, darkness, more rain.
I felt almost as bad (operative word being "almost'') for the 'Birds 'cause that was our only scheduled game vs. them this ye...
Another good night for baseball in Scotia last night @ the middle school, which was in great shape last night. Unfortunately are streak came to a end by the score of 5-3 in 9 innings. Yes another extra inning game. The kudos go out to Dan Maynard and Mike Maiello as they both threw complete games for which...

The A's took their third in a row over a tough Blue Jays team. The game started a little late because, on the most beautiful day of the year, the field was still a little wet in spots and the water had to be taken off. I'd like to thank all the guys, especially Don Wixon (who is hurt and not even playing), Wayne...

I was pitching agsinst on Sunday - nobody on base - I'm in my windup - my cleat got caught on something - I stopped my delivery - the ball did not leave my hand. The umpire called a ball. I've been pitching since I was 8 eight year...
Once again I am attempting to put a team together for a national tournament. This one is the World Series in Arizona. October 21st-26th. Im looking to put together a 45 wood bat team. We can have two waivers. Im one of the waivers so I can take one guy who is at least 43 and not a pitcher. I am going to be as sele...

Supported by fans of dads the U-Albany stands were rocking by the seventh inning of a well played and exciting game. The Black Sox scored three runs on five hits in their half of the first inning. Many in the crowd were not cheering very loudly, as most came to cheer on the Blue Thunder. Rich Garbarino, on...
The Sox started out quickly lacing four consecutive singles against Bucky Kruzinski after one out in the first and end up scoring 4 runs to start out the game. With Jim Dalton firing bullets and marshmallows (okay - more marshmallows than bullets), the A's were able to sneak back into the game in the se...
The Highlanders defeated the Pirates 7-1 at Farnesworth Middle School on Monday night, June 18. The game was closer than the score might indicate as the Highlanders were holding on to a 4-1 lead at the end of four innings. In the bottom of the fifth they were able to push across three more runs. The game w...
