If anyone else has a desire to run for the BOD he can run by submitting their name to John Reel, which...

Albany Ny Yankees are at it again. FALL CLASSIC IN WEST PALM BEACH! First off congratulations to all our Albany brother the CUBS , and the CAPITALS. Giving the country a taste of how competitive guys from Ny are. As well as the Capitals back to back championships We hope we can live up to those expectatio...
Even though the only result that would have satisfied the Albany Cubs would have been a Triple A championship, we are left to face a different fate with grace and class. We ran into a very good Milwaukee Rangers team that was the better team in the Semi-finals of the Roy Hobbs tournament. The pitched bet...
Well our gloves and bats definitely didnt make the trip this morning. We had uncharacteristic errors and some hit batters, some walks and oh did I say they hit the crap out of the ball too. We are in the central division which mean NO EX pros! Well I didnt get the memo that our first game is against a team wit...
The Albany Capitals won!!! Just a short update. Im to excited and am out with the team. Johnny Weber pitched 7 innings in the semifinals with Wayne Nicholsen closing the last three innings for a 12-8 win!!!! Then Jimmy Tesoriero went 7 in the championship game with Wayne Nicholsen (again!) closing th...
Congrats to the Cubs. Unfortunately the Caps didnt fair as well on Wednesday. We imploded in the first inning giving up 11 runs for a final 17-1 killing. We finished our round robin with a 2-3 record. We were told that baseball would be played on Thursday due to weather so it was also important to rest cer...
The American Baseball Club (5-1) took on the Cubs (6-0) in a battle of the #2 and #3 seeds for the right to play in the Semi-finals. The Cubs returned to their earlier way of getting off to a fast start, when they scored the games first run in the bottom of the first inning. Jerry Rosen got things started wit...
The Cubs failed to get off to a good start for the first time in the tournament, and it was the worst time to do so. This time, their opponent got an early lead. The A's got a run in the top of the first on a leadoff single, a sac bunt, and a RBI single. They would get two more in the top of the 5th, to take a 3-0 lead a...
Former Red Sox second-baseman and long-time broadcaster Jerry Remy succumbed to lung cancer last week at the age of sixty-eight. It was his seventh bout with the disease, which first appeared in 2008. Jerry faced a lot of adversity in his life, and you had to admire his unimaginable toughness. I'm on...
The Cubs were faced with a fully sponsored team (St. Louis Patriots), in game 5 of the round robin, with the playoffs only one day away. The hard part of managing in these tournaments is deciding how much of your pitching assets to use in the round robin, to get a better seeding, and how much to save for the...
The Cubs pounded out 22 hits in beating the Pensacola Barracudas 25 - 13, on Tuesday afternoon. Jack Griffin, Andy Hoyle and Jim Hicks led the way with 3 hits each. Mike Girard, Bob Bolt, Darrell Duncan, Tim Brown, and Ralph Caputo all chipped in with two hits each. Meanwhile, Andy Hoyle pitched the fir...
I was driving to our stadium game this morning thinking what it would be like if I pitched and just threw strikes for a few innings to save our pitchers arms. It would take our defense to play like pros and our bats to continue our hot streak. We were playing Steves Sports-Red (Cleveland) a historically t...
The stadium games in these Florida tournaments are always a little more fun than the rest of the games, but this one was the most fun on that I have been a part of down here. The top seeded Cubs (2-0) were up against the 1-1 Omaha Indians, in a game that was important to both teams. The Cubs were able to get on t...
