Hit Or Hit? by Havelock Hewes

   At the risk of sounding self-serving, the official scoring for the team I pitched against on Sunday seemed not to understand the concept of "error."  It is difficult enough for pitchers to live with the on-field consequences of mistakes behind them.  In the case of the game I pitched Sunday there were about five of them.  At the end of the game I expected that at least two of these would end up as E's.  I was wrong.  According to whoever(s) scored the game we played a flawless game.  For a pitcher, the experience is akin to being the bloodied victim of a mugging who appears at the police station only to be told it never happened.
 
 

Games Begin a Little After 8 by Havelock Hewes

   This Sunday, April 7, we move to Hecksher Fields in Central Park.  Games will begin as soon after 8 am as we get enough players.  Please remember to bring $40 for dues.  If we have over 22 players you will not be allowed to play if you have not paid. You may pay on Sunday and play on Sunday.

Summer Season Begins

Our first day at Heckscher is Sunday, April 7. Due to inclement weather, we only managed to play three weekends in 2013 so far. Stats and recaps will be posted soon.
