Game Day Gazette    May 22, 2025 Hot and humid day that saw a pitcher’s duel and a slugfest, so you never know what you are going to get when you come out to the ballpark! Game 1 8:30 a.m. Pioneers (4-2-0) vs. Sultans (2-4-0)  First & Second Inning Recap: Pioneers welcomed Jack Adams back to… Read more
B League Picayune Always free, and worth every penny. Volume 7, Issue 23 – May 22, 2025 Correction: Gray manager Jack Kelly on something I missed: A quick correction that should be acknowledged. On the Gray-Blue game, I benched myself and put Jim Aaron in at second base and moved Mike Malay to pitcher for the last inning. So Mike is the… Read more
B League Picayune Often in error, never in doubt. Volume 7, Issue 22 – May 19, 2025 Dave Berra’s weather reports: Game one: 83 degrees, felt like 90. Humidity 75%. Wind from the south-southeast at 14 MPH. Breezy and partly cloudy. “Not too bad.” Game two: 86 degrees, felt like 94. Humidity 66%. Wind from the south… Read more
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

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.

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.
