In a tight, well played game at SUNY, the last place Shaskys beat the tied for second place Blue Jays to secure their first win of the season. The pitching was outstanding for both teams, but Todd McCurty of the Shaskys was especially effective, going five innings and giving up one earned run on five hit...
On a night when few thought we would be playing a baseball game to due to the weather in the area, the Met's beat the Shasky's by a score of 14-2. Newcomer Jim Jansen pitched for the first time and held the Shaskys to 3 hits over 5 inings and I pitched the 6th before the game got called. Dan Maynard led the hitt...
After a loss to the Marlins and 3 rain outs in a row, the Mighty Orioles have come back with a vengeance. In the last 19 innings they have scored 31 runs while only allowing 2. Last night the streak continued with an impressive combined no hitter from Joe Guerin and Dave Topino in a 10-0 rain shortened 5 inn...
Lost glove, left at Voorheesville Annex Field on Sunday, 6/10, Yankees / Cougars game at 2:30. The following game was Marlins and Thunder game. John Reel, would you please let me know if anyone on your club found a Reggie Jackson, closed web glove, since you used the left side bench. I've had that glove...
Behind the fine pitching of Dave Foreman (also his hitting, including a 3 bagger) the Black Sox won their second game of the year. Mark Myers with 2 triples and a double and 5 rbi led the hit parade. Several Black Sox hitters had a multiple hit game including Reuter, Sarubbi, Musella, and Fish. The Couga...
A shout out to the 28+ Orioles and Nationals for yesterday's game at SUNY Albany. Over the last five years I have umpired approx. 200 CDMSBL games across all three age divisions. I have made it my policy not to discuss any of these contests in this forum. Today I make an exception because this game was a cl...
Don't know the final score (cooler related memory loss), but the Pirates entered the 6th inning with a 5 run lead. The Cubs came up with 5 in the bottom of the sixth and one more in the bottom of the 7th to cap a stirring comeback. The winning rally was started with a walk to Mike Girard (rare indeed), follow...
Jerry Solomon, on 2 days rest, tossed a 3-hitter to lead the Giants at FMS in a game called after the Highlanders batted in the top of the 6th.
Billy Smith smacked a deep SAC fly in the first and an RBI double in the third, and Jim Keegan roped an RBI triple before being paged to go to work. Carlos Llera ha...
We are in danger of having the Ravena High School field taken away, we have been warned!!! This is a drug free school zone. This means no smoking or drinking on school grounds period. The fields we can use are not that plentiful so lets all do our part not to lose this one. This is players, spectators, and u...

Wayne Philips pitched the final 2, giving up just one unearned run on 2 hits.
Giants scored 4 runs on just two hits in the first, then added a 4-spot in the third Dan Maguire's single and P...
Wednesday night at SUNY marked the return of Ted Poleto to the Silvers line-up (in town for a week). Ted hit the ball hard twice, knocking in three for the Silvers, as his buddy Phil Gadomski got his second win in less than a week. If you are going to be playing SS, 3B, or LF at SUNY in a 6:00 game, please bring...
The Reds after winning 3 straight games faced the not so Aging Orioles Friday in Ravena. The score speaks for itself, the Reds took a beating. Six hits scattered over 7 innings. The Orioles top 5 hittters did some extensive damage with solid hits all over the field accounting for 9 of the 14 runs. Hats of...
The evening was perfect for baseball and both teams responded with a well-played game. The two starters, Jim Hayden for the Thunder and Chris Abrams for the Hornets, repeatedly bent but did not break. Hayden kept Hornets hitters off balance by mixing hard stuff with junk that was slower than a tax ref...
A beautiful night for Baseball, and both teams came out to play. I want to congratrulate the Whitesox, as they are not the Fordians. They played tough defense, pitched well, and definitely have good team chemistry. Over all it was a great game, and the Met's came out on top by a final score of 6-5. Lex Her...
