Eddie's Notes:  July 26, 2026

Playoff formats are set. For details click the link on the menu bar on the top of the website.

Attn all mgrs. please note when playing at the Sloatsburg field •• (I received an email from them yesterday on the following)•••
If removing the bases please put a plug (that's there)) in what's not being used & put back everything the way it was when you arrived. Also, do a quick raking job at the pitchers mound to cover any holes. The Town leaves a rack near the dugout. It'll be very quick on both counts when the game is over if the 2 teams playing there work together.  
On all our fields concerning post game refreshments, please do so fairly far from the field (use common sense) and take all garbage with you when leaving. 
There will be no post game refreshments at Vets fields in Orangeburg.  If there is a complaint brought to my attention at any of our fields - then the teams involved will be penalized .  We can not afford to lose any field permits.

GAME SUMMARIES

Division 2-D

Game 2 of 3: Eagles 6 - Thunder 3: After losing a close 7-4 Game 1 in the Best 2 of 3 Division 2 series, the Eagles bounced back in a do-or-die Game 2, to win 6-3, and even the series a game apiece. The Birds jumped out 3-0 and 4-0 in their 2 frames, while the Thunder kept things tight with 2 runs in their second. Not until the top 6th, did the Eagles punch thru 2 runs to take a 6-2 advantage, but the Thunder responded with a run, and to make the final 6-3, each scoring no runs in the 7th. 

GAME 3: Best 2 of 3 Division 2 Playoffs: EAGLES 13 - Thunder 6: 

With the series tied 1 game apiece, the Birds and Thunder took to the field for the rubber match. The Birds took the second in a row, winning 13-6 and moved onto the Finals. The Eagles led from start to finish with a 4-run first inning and followed by a 7-run second inning romp. Sporaick scoring made the final score 13-6.  

The Birds first inning saw Singles by Wilkey Jimenez, brothers George and Craig Vansise, as well as Charlie Fisher; Chris Pellegrinelli doubled, and Joe Raia plus Mike Leote walks jumped started the 4 runs. The hot catch-fire hitting kept going in the bottom 2nd as Singles by Wilkey J, Joe Raia and Ed Kelly were joined by doubles by Mike Romanello and Chris Pellegrinelli; Billy Robinson and George Vansise had walks sandwiched between the hits. Ed Kelly contributed 2-3 and accounted for the 7-run burst.  While the hitting was abundant, so were the Eagles sharp eyes, as 6 players drew 8 walks to go with their 14 hits.

The Offensive drama was provided by Mike Romanello who hit a towering HR that required 4 tape-measures. Defensively, the Swan-diving OFer Joe Raia made another run-dive-catch as he belly-stretched for the awesome catch.   Veteran Master Pitcher Gorge Vansise took to the mound in this nightcap, scattering 6 runs amongst 7 inns work. While errors were kept down, George had to work out of several jams that his teammates caused.
