I was not at the Finals. I cannot comment on any of the specifics. I have friends on both teams.
To truth is, I find it sad -- but by no means unforeseen -- that a championship game has ended this way. These events are not without CONTEXT, and I feel it's important for our league members to see these events...
i just got back to the computer to see very kind notes about tommy yeates from mike girard, herb carter and jimmy kostantakis. i've also had a number of fellows come up to me and offer condolences personally. to all of you, i say thank you so much.
to extend mike's comment, yes, tommy would be your kin...

Sorry Jim McQuade. I can't believe I forgot to add your name to the roster of players who helped our team in the Labor Day tournament.
You played great, too, as usual.
Again, my apologies.
Jim
thanks to all who devote so much on this holiday, including most of our board, the host mgr's and those mgr's getting their road teams together. all hale the champs but i have a great deal of respect for all teams coming in. 12 years now, and still the longest continously held MSBL regional tournament. H...
With a little more than a little trepidation I joined John Reel's over 47 team in the Labor Day Tourney. After 4 straight wins to take the cup, I am a little more than a lot grateful. My hesitance about seeing good baseball, changed the first game when our second baseman, Jay Hayner, deftly saw a grounder...
While it was a scramble to put together a 38 team and still play in the 47s, too, our 38 team, despite its 1-3 record, was competitive while developing new bonds.
We had a player from L.I., one from Dutchess County, and two brothers who live in Pensacola, Fla. and Schenectady, on the roster. And they ca...
some members of the cdmsbl community who were lucky enough to meet tommy yeates, a superb person, catcher and hitter from san antonio, texas, over the past three years when he made what was becoming his annual summer pilgrimmage here would, i'm sure, want to know that he died on tuesday, august 30.

I want to thank the cdmsbl for being a class act, again. I brought my family down to play as a New England Mutt and had a blast. DD was a super host; John Reel - thanks again for the bag; Mike Girard - how many Johnson bats do you want? My email is foxnsox13@yahoo.com. Thanks everyone, Lenny Fox -I look forwar...

Just sixty days away is game one of the Fall Classic in Clearwater, Florida.
Albany is putting together another formidable entry for the 38+ Division.
Many of the same players that finished third two years ago, are going back down to "bring home the rings". Two areas that cost the team the title tw...
The Albany Marlins had a bad first day going 0-2 without really anyone hitting. We woke up Sunday morning by beating a Rome team 7-3 behind exceptional pitching of Jon Martin. The second game on Sunday was a thriller. We were down 4-0 most of the game when our bats woke up. Tom Sheperdson pitched for the 2...
