The Inaugural Slate for the 62 Division, had two familiar opponents squaring off on a balmy evening at the B-Diamond. I think this game exemplified what JRs expectations were for this new division, in a well pitched, well played competitive game. Pirates jumped out to a 2-0 first inning lead with the...

That run came in the top of the first, but the Whiz responded in the bottom of the frame in a big way. Gene Hallenbeck had a run scori...
The baseball field at Watervliet High School is Dennis Lane's baby--and he dotes on it like a proud father. The field had been abandoned and all but forgotten for several years, until Dennis, a teacher at the school, singlehandedly undertook its reclamation. And now, after many long months of toil a...

Damn Yankees defeated the Twins 7-0 at A Diamond Tuesday evening. No Yankee runs were earned as the Twins committed 4 very untimely errors. It was 1-0 after 3 and 3-0 after 5 but the Yankees tacked on 3 more in the 6th and 1 in the 7th. The Yankees had 8 hits . Weber was masterful on the mound for the Yankees al...
The 55+ Dodgers and Angels met on a beautiful evening for baseball at New Scotland. The Dodgers knocked on the door early; loading the bases in the 1st and 3rd innings but the gritty Angels would allow just two runs. The Angels then cut the lead in half as Jim McQuade singled, promptly stole 2nd and 3rd an...

Twins starter Stefan Koutsakis stayed in the game, found a better approach, and allowed just one run and 3 hits over the next four in...

An actual heart replacement! Th...
At A Diamond the Twins finally got their first game of the season out of the way after the previous 2 were washed out. Twins drew first blood in the top of the 1st when Rick Saidenberg hit a triple and scored on a Tom King single. It stayed 1-0 until the bottom of the 5th when the Giants tied it at 1 all as Vanett...
The Cubs and Angels got together at New Scotland for what is always a very friendly game, you could even say a FAMILY AFFAIR. Of the 22 players at the field last night, 19 had previously, at one time or another, played for the Cubs franchise (30+, 45+, and/or 55+). The game was friendly, but competitive t...
Pitching, defense and timely hitting led the WhizKids over the Yankees Tuesday night at the A diamond. Mike Kane allowed only 3 hits and no walks in the 7-inning shutout. The defense was solid, especially considering it was the first game of the year, following a rainout and a bye week. The offense sho...
