On a night where the Whiz Kids were playing for the number one seed, the Cubs looked happy to help them along the way. The Cubs (away team for the third time in 3 games vs the Whiz) got a run, in the top of the 1st inning on a RBI single by Ron Lochner. However, they committed 4 errors, and walked the first two ba...
The Yankees beat the Giants (9-4 or so) last night to clinch 2nd in the 55s. Scary moment when Gregg Woolston took a Steve Lounello fastball in the mouth/face but it seemed like he was lucky and didn't sustain too much damage. We iced it immediately and there was no blood and he still had all of his teeth in...
The Americans took a 2-0 lead in the top of the first with 2 hits and that would be the only hits and runs the Twins pitching staff would allow the rest of the game . It took the Twins until the bottom of the 6th to finally score their 3 runs. Mike Ruslander and Dave Edelman scored pn a 1 out bases loaded Jim Edel...
Gents: I was the last to leave our dugout Sunday at Watervliet High, and on the way out, I found a dark blonde-colored bat - something called Talbot & Turmings/ Chesapeake I think - with black tape. Also found a black & red Franklin batting glove. I sent a note to the Grays, and through Don Ball, t...
Curious game last night. Whiz Kids jumped out to 4-0 lead, Giants clawed back to take 6-4 lead, then lightning struck at the top of the 4th and the s*** was shot. Some of us hung around late and drank fancy beer from Vermont. Thanks, Pete! At this point, I have no info on plans to reschedule game. My underst...
We are still showing no field assignments for the Thursday (Whiz vs Cubs game), and the Friday (Giants vs Whiz) games. Could we get those assigned, so I can tell my guys where to go for Thursday's games. Would love to know where Monday's (08/05/19) game 1, of the upper tier playoffs, will be played as wel...

Twins---Peppers game was suspended last night in the top of the 6th due to lightening. Peppers were up with one man on and no outs. Twins were leading 12-5. Game will be finished on Wednesday starting at 5:15 pm at New Scotland with the winner immediately playing the winner of the Americans---Pirates...
On a hot and humid Friday night at the Schenectady Babe Ruth field, the Cubs and Giants played a quick, reasonably well played game. There were errors, but mostly made by players playing out of position, or had something to do with a tough sun field in right. Scott Ross got the start for the Cubs, and pitc...
