League MVP candidates for the fall season are now posted on the Softball America website. You can click here... League MVP Candidates/Fall 2021 ...or use the 'League Statistics' drop-down box on the Softball America home page. To qualify as a candidate for offensive MVP, a minimum of 21 plate appear...

One thing to remember and unlike other leagues, if you don't bowl on a given Sunday you are not responsible to pay a league fee. No bowl, no pay. So no worries if you can't make it every week. Get a sub or have the team bowl 'blind' (-10 pins off average per game).

The good news is there will be a bowling season this year. The bad news is there are only about 2 days left (11/7 deadline) to register a team. 12 teams have committed thus far. Opening Day is November 21st. Start time is 8:00 pm. 3 games with 3 bowlers and you should be home by 10 pm. It's a laid b...

Mike Marcelline (Ball Busters, Sunday Men's) has been issued a mandatory 1-game suspension as a result of a game ejection on 10/24/21 for unsportsmanlike conduct. This suspension is effective immediately. Suspended players are prohibited from attending the game or being on the ball field grounds.

Regardless of what happens with the hits record, what's even more impressive is the score keeper in 1998 and in 2021 was none other than the First Lady of Softball, Nancy Razzi.

Two long-standing seasonal league records are on the verge of being broken. After 7 games and 23 at-bats in the Sunday Morning Men's league, Jonn Poore (Doom Cats) has 21 hits and is batting 913. He needs 1 at-bat to qualify (24) and nothing less than a perfect day at the plate (1/1, 2/2, etc.) to b...

We are moving ahead with the infield/outfield trim work once the season ends. Tim O'Shea will create a soft grade from midway between the baselines and where the infield meets the outfield. The shaved infield mix and topsoil will be used to fill in any outfield drop-off that remains. Sod will be ins...

I'm sorry to say the Quarry light fixtures are still on the West Coast, caught in the supply chain BS. I won't get them in time for installation this year so we will hold off until Spring 2022.

Bill Shallcross (Wire2Wire Sports Podcast, Tuesday Men's) has been issued a mandatory 1-game suspension as a result of a game ejection on 10/12/21 for throwing his bat. This 1-game suspension is effective immediately. Suspended players are prohibited from attending the game or being on the ball fiel...

What is being compared here is a concept. Pro leagues most certainly do have all-star rules only they are in the form of high-salaried player rules. The better the player, the higher their salary. Pro teams are only allowed so many high-salaried players (all-stars) before it pushes them over the cap...

All of the organizations below use a 'governor' to keep the competition level real. They must all be crazy. It's a wonder they survived all these years. National Football League (salary cap) National Hockey League (salary cap) National Basketball Association (soft cap + luxury tax) Major League Base...

Dan Aichele (DA Electric, Sunday Men's) has been issued a mandatory 1-game suspension as a result of a game ejection on 10/11/21 for unsportsmanlike conduct.

A fair and balanced statistical formula is used to produce MVP winners. It does not favor the power hitter, nor does it favor the player that hits for average. The formula takes into account at-bats (9 plate appearances required for consideration) H (hits), (R) runs, (RBI) runs batted in, OBP (on-ba...
