SUMMER BALL

Alan played for the Wareham Gatemen the summer of 2004. I remember they had a night game delay, not for weather, but they had an invasion of skunks came onto the field….

It took some entertaining moments to get the field cleared without “engaging” the critters…

 

Summer Ball makes me feel fine; blowing through the jasmine in my mind.

 

Seeing who's not on the list makes it seem even more apparent that Heyman, Donay, Shelton and Coppola won't be back, don't you think? And what about Kurland? Is he taking the summer off to completely heal or is he moving on as well?

 

I'll be at the Falmouth game this Sunday evening. Interesting to see that Wilson got into the Cape.

 

Thanks - I had forgotten about Clemente.

 

My impression is the top players seldom play in summer leagues as rising seniors and often don't play as rising juniors. It's the summer after frosh year that most is critical for college players and I expect our rising sophss to play somewhere, health permitting.

 

I agree. The Cape I know would have had about 2 or 3 of the kids on that list. Rest would have been in Vally or Alaska.

 

Some of the guys listed are not playing but some early updates on those who are. Cyr went 3-3 Tuesday night and is now 5-11 on the young season. McNeillie makes his debut on the mound with Harwich tonight and both Stripling (0-6) and Yost (1-11) are off to slow starts with Wareham.
