Welcome

Birthday Celebration

On Sunday, July 14th we will be celebrating Joe "The Barber" Giordano's 90th birthday.

Currently scheduled is a "cookout" immediately following the games between Blue Cross and Acrtion Auto Parts 65's at Western Hills.

Joe was one of the 7 founding members of the league back in 1982 and has serve many years as League Commissioner and as a Board Member.

As player/manager of Blue Cross Joe will occasionally take a turn at bat or position himself at 2nd base. I am sure that part of the plan for Sunday's game will be Joe inserting himself into the lineup at some point.

Please join us in celebrating and honoring Joe for making it possible for us to enjoy playing the game we love.

Remaining Division 4 Games Now Scheduled

With the July 7th games Division 4 will have completed the 1st round of the schedule.

The remainder of the season has now been scheduled.

Games on July 14th will be a duplicate of the games played during the first week of the season (Field usage may be different). Instead of weeks 2 and 3 following on July 21st and July28th, weeks 4 and 5 will be substituted. The last 2 weeks of the schedule will be weeks 2 and 3. This is being done so that the team's having byes will have a few weeks from the makeup dates for the original weeks 2 and 3 that were rained out originally.

Team Responsible for Supplying Bases and Plate

The responsibility for supplying the bases (on fields without permanent bases), home plate, and the 2nd plate is on teams designated as Home Team on the schedule. On fields with permanent bases, be prepared to provide the 2nd 1st base. The schedule is prepared as evenly as possible so that teams have an equal number of home games.

Home team does not mean you will be the home team for those games. A coin flip will determine the home team and visitors for each game.
