gentlemen:
friend and teammate al hart (no relation) just sent me a note, reminding me to start drinking lots of water now - during the day as well as at our upcoming games - because the thermostat is supposed to start whistling in the 90s for the next three days or so. after that, accuweather predic...
The Cougars came to New Scotland with winning on their minds. They carried a lively anticipation to get onto the field, play as a team and give the Black Sox more than they could handle. The first batter for the Sox worked a walk. Good sign for Sox but no Cougar heads were looking down. As the first pitch to...
The Highlanders defeated the Bluejays by a score of 7-5 last night at SUNYA. The Highlanders took a 4-0 lead early in the game. By the 6th inning the Jays had fought back to tie the score 5-5. The Highlanders followed with 2 more in the 7th to ice the victory. John Kalinsky got the win with a very-well pitch...
Everyone contributed for the Hornets on a day the Blue Thunder just weren't the Thunder.
We played well on a day they didn't, so we got lucky.
We only beat them 4-1 the first time, and it was close all the way.
BT has a lot of talent on that team, so whoever their next opponent is, beware. They WILL be b...
On Saturday, the Mohawk Division leading Cubs beat the Cardinals 13-1 in 5 innings, while the second place Brewers were being beaten 7-4 by the Tigers. This set-up the showdown Sunday at the A-diamond. If the Brewers could beat the Cubs it would even the season series between the two teams at 1 each and...
The Shasky's had the uneviable task of taking on the Silvers at New Scotland Friday night as they rebounded from a disappointing defeat the previous week. Dr. Jim Ansel took the ball and allowed just one base runner to reach base on an error in five complete innings. He also had a perfect night at the pla...
The Columbia-Greene Cougars garnered their first win of this, their inaugural season by besting the Dodgers in a tight, well-played game by the score of 7-2.
This was a nail-biter, to be sure, with both teams displaying strong defensive efforts. With a 3-2 lead going into the bottom of the sixth...
Mark Johnson and Ric Lofreddo threw 3 scoreless innings to start the game. In the bottom of the fourth the Black Sox pushed across 4 runs with the big hit being Meyers triple driving in 2. After 5 outstanding innings of 1 hit ball and 4 K's by Mark Johnson for the Sox, and a 5-0 lead, he sat down and Saruubi pi...
It's tough in any division to go unbeaten, so the Yanks were due in falling to the Hornets in a 47+ game Saturday evening at UAlbany.
Dave Madden went the distance in a gutsy effort and was aided by great Hornets defense and some timely hitting in improving to 6-1-1. The Yanks are now 6-1.
The pla...
Someone on either the 28 Yankees or 47 Yankees left a purple cooler with white cap in the dugout Sunday at UAlbany.
Email or call Jim Konstantakis at 461-7850.
Awesome picture for the web site - stand up triple for Dennis - 3 or 4 autographs seekers after the game. ( He signed one Ryan Sandberg)!
I know some are concerned about expansion, but with guys like Dennis, the future of the CDMSBL is in good hands.
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...
I wrote the following as a reply to the DH results for this past Sunday but I haven't had a response, so I'm starting a new topic with the hope that someone will provide an answer...
For most of us, playing baseball remains a passion - that was evidenced by all the dads out there yesterday playing thei...
