Game Day Gazette    May 19, 2025 Half of our teams have now completed 30% of their season schedule (18 games out of a total of 60) so there is still plenty of softball to be played this year. Not sure if it was due to other time commitments, vacations or lingering injuries but we had… Read more

B League Picayune Often in error, never in doubt. Volume 7, Issue 21 – May 15, 2025 Always corrections: I failed to credit (and regret doing so) Daniel Baladez for his 3-for-3 day at the plate for Blue team on Monday. Dave Berra’s weather reports: Game one: 82 degrees, felt like 87. Humidity 72%. Wind from the south at… Read more
Game Day Gazette    May 12, 2025 Hope everyone enjoyed the cool morning air on Monday as the first heat wave of the summer is heading to central Texas, and temperatures are supposed to spike at 106 degrees on Wednesday!

B League Picayune Often in error, never in doubt. Volume 7, Issue 20– May 12, 2025 Yet another correction: In this past Thursday’s edition, throughout the recap of the 12:30 game, Blue versus Green, I incorrectly identified Tom Bellavia as Steve Sandall. (Steve was absent.) No reason, and nobody’s fault except mine, just being my usual dumb-ass self. I… Read more
Game Day Gazette    May 8, 2025 Heavy rains earlier in the week forced a move to Krieg #2 and it is amazing how much a change in venue can impact the game. The distance between the bases is 70 feet at Krieg #2 vs. 65 feet at our home field and this leads to many… Read more
B League Picayune Often in error, never in doubt. Volume 7, Issue 17 – May 1, 2025 Department of Corrections: I wrote in Monday’s edition that Purple’s tying rally came in the bottom of the fourth inning, but in fact it was the top of the fifth, as accurately depicted in the line score. Sorry for… Read more
Game Day Gazette    May 5, 2025 Nice to be back after being out last week trying to play through the constant rain up in Grapevine for the SSUSA Texas state tournament.  Congrats to the Austin Wizards for taking the championship for the 65 AA group.

Volume 7, Issue 18 – May 5, 2025 Weather report: 73 with 64% humidity at the start of the 10:30 game, overcast, wind from the east-southeast at 11 MPH. It started raining in the bottom of the fourth inning of the first game, really started coming down… Read more
B League Picayune Often in error, never in doubt. Volume 7, Issue 17 – May 1, 2025 Department of Corrections: Omissions: Ken Brown, Tom Kelm, and Terry O’Brien were perfect at the plate in Maroon’s game this past Monday. Commission: It was Tommy Gillis whose throw resulted in Jimmie Maloy being out at home Monday, not Don Solberg. The Picayune regrets the errors. League president Anthony… Read more
