The rain finally went away long enough for the Damn Yankees and the Cubs to play a game last night at Watervliet High School. The Cubs hadn't been on the field for 3 weeks, and it was great to get back to playing this great game again. The field was pristine (thanks to Dennis Lane's hard work) as always. It i...
