Going into the final day of the round robin, the Braves had an outside chance to make the playoffs. we needed three things to happen:
1) Win
2) Limit the runs against for the Colonels.
3) Either a. Louisville Orioles lose to the Decatur Braves, or b. the Chesapeake Bay Sox lose both ends of their do...
Finally a game to put in the win column.
With the playoffs still a real possibility, the Braves took their best shot in the second game of a doubleheader. what the Braves had to do was win the last two and limit their opponents runs as the big tie breaker is Runs Against. Ralph Caputo took the hill with th...
Tough road to 0-3.
This is probably the eventual champ. What a game the entire Braves team played!!! Let's start with TJ Scorsone. He held this team (that averaged 14 runs in their first 3 games) to just 2 runs through 8 innings. Great job!!
Part of his success was in getting the Sox to hit the ball on t...

The South Carolina Cubs came up with just a couple more timely hits than the Braves in a disappointing opening game loss. Ted Poleto threw 3 shutout innings in a stellar middle relief stint. The Cubs opened a 6-1 lead off of Braves starter Ted Martin. Ted Poleto came in and shut down the Cubs and allowed t...

The last time I saw Jim Jordan was on Sunday afternoon, October 4th. He had tried to organize a Fall Ball game at New Scotland, but by gametime it was clear that we wouldn't have enough players. A few stragglers hung around the picnic tables, eyeing the parking lot hopefully, a little disappointed that...
This was one of the hardest news I have had to hear in a very long time. I knew Jimmy from the time he entered CDMSBL. We played together, against one another and played in Florida several times together. This news was especially hard for me because I had just spoken to Jimmy the day before his passing when...
