The Yankees defense did have 3 errors on the night, but made the rest of the plays and turned 3 double plays in th...
The Dodgers and Cardinals met at Watervliet HS for the first of two games this week in phase two of the 55+ division season. Crafty veteran John Latorre took the mound for the red birds and had the Dodgers' batters shaking their heads on the way back to the dugout. "I was way out in front". "Ugh, right off t...
Well this one got ugly. Can't defend 5 errors,9 walks a balk and 3 hit by pitches. So sandwich in 11 hits and the story was written of a slaughter. 24 - 8 final score for the Americans. Looking forward to the rubber game Friday at the A Diamond.
Good friends and November teammates got together at New Scotland last night, and a great game broke out. At least it was a great game through 5 full innings. The Cubs held a 5-3 advantage over the Giants entering the top of the 6th inning. The Cubs defense, in the top of the 6th inning, set back the game of b...
In a well played game by both teams, the 55 Twins defeated the Peppers at beautiful Watervliet High School Field 10-4 on a very hot and steamy evening last night. The Twins took a 2-0 lead in the top of the first only to see the Peppers take the lead 4-2 in the bottom of the frame pounding out 4 clean hits off T...

55 Yankees came from behind to defeat the Twins 6-4 at Watervliet last night.

The Dodgers and Peppers met at Watervliet HS and meteorologist Steve Schaefer assured everyone that the pre-game drizzle would pass. Sure enough, at 5:45, the tarps were removed and the umpires gave the signal to play ball! In a game where both teams were missing some key players, the Dodgers came ou...
