Hi Everyone

It is Memorial Day weekend and turnout has been low lately so there will be no game this Sunday.

We will be back out there on 6/6/10. Hope to see you there.

No softball today, April 25,2010

Hi Cats and Dogs

It is very wet out there and the rain is supposed to continue all day so there is no game today.

Remember if you want to get the status of the fields you can call the Central Park hotline at 212-628-1036- then punch in ext 807 right away to go directly to the status for our fields.

I also want to let everyone know that the annual New York City ALS walk is Saturday, May 15th. As most of you know we lost a close friend, Roberto Rosado, to ALS a few years ago. Roberto participated in the ALS walk in his wheelchair in the years before he died and it was something that meant a lot to him. Since his death, his sisters, Ivette and Rachel, have continued to participate in the walk. In the last few years several of us including Randy, Max, Dale, Arthur, Richie and myself have done the walk with them.

For anyone interested, below is a note Ivette forwarded about this year’s walk.

The Walk in New York will take place on

Saturday, May 15,2010 @ 11a.m.

Hudson River Park, Pier 46 (Charles Street and West Side Highway)

New York, NY

If anyone is interested in making a donation or in doing the walk, please go to “Roberto’s Iron Horses”. That’s the name of my team. From there, you will be able to sign in and register and or make a donation. The walk is 5k ( about 2.75 miles) Thank you so much for your time and may God bless you.

All the best,

Ivette and family

The kid is alright

Andrew — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 03:43:21 +0000

Hi cats and dogs

To update everyone about the game last Sunday- Dale (or the “kid from Cleveland” as he likes to call himself) is a little bruised up but doing okay. For those of you not at the game: Dale, while catching, was involved in a scary collision at the plate. A very agressive player ran into him at full speed. Dale sat out the rest of the game but was well enough to enjoy a cigar and a beer as usual. He got himself checked out at the doctor and is ok. Dale is pushing for a ban of the offending player but the commisioners are still reviewing the matter.

In over 20 years of playing in this Sunday game (about 30 years for Terry) we haven’t seen injuries much more serious than some pulled muscles, some black and blue marks and of course several bruised egos, and we would like to keep it that way.

As for this coming Sunday, it looks as if the fields will be open but it may rain. We will post something in a few days.

take care

Andrew

Hi everyone

The permit is up but we will be out today. If field 5 is being used we will be on another field. It is getting dark earlier so try to get there by 4:30 so that we can get a game in.

Hope to see you out there.

I’m not sure if this went out. Sorry if it is a repeat.

Hey Cats and Dogs

For all of you in town this Labor day weekend, we will be out there on Sunday as the fields are only open for a few more weeks. I will not get there until about 6:00 but Terry is back in town and will be there earlier. The sun sets by 7:30 so we want to get started as early as possible.

Hope to see you there.

Andrew
