Playoff races finale

In the AA Division
The 1st two playoff teams have been set for a while but the last playoff spot was up for grabs. The Motorboaters and Naturals needed a victory on the last day of the season but both team were not able to get the big win. With both teams losing left the Motorboaters taking the last playoff spot. The Motorboaters now will face Pacific Tires in the 1st round of the playoffs. Pacific Tires took 2 out 3 games during the regular season but now these games will count alot more.

In the A Division
A West
Mirimire clinched the division title and the #1 seed. Mirimire now get a 1st round bye and wait for the winner of the Colt 45 and Perros 1st round matchup. These teams split the regular season series 1-1-1.

A East
The Perros had clinched their playoff spot a while but they still were trying to get the 1st round bye. They lost out the first round bye even though they forfeited the Rangers in the season finale. The Perros will face the Colt 45's in the 1st round.

A Wild Card
The Wild card spot came down to the last game of the season. The Colt 45's finally subdued Teocal in the season finale 18-10. The Colt 45's now face the Perros in the first round.

The B East Division
The Peloteros came out of nowhere and now have taken the division title. Somehow the Peloteros are now the #2 seed and will get a 1st round bye. The Tomahawks take the #5 seed with their victory Sunday. The Bean Boys somehow ended up holding onto a playoff spot and enter as the last seed #6. The Bandits were left out because of their poor run differential.

The B West Division
The Calif Angels defeated Deportivo Zamarillo to take the division and the #1 seed. The Rancheros limp into the playoffs as the #3 seed even if they lost their last game vs. the Chapulines. The RC Dodgers take the #4 seed over the Magueyes. Now the RC Dodgers still have a tie game vs. the Chapulinos pending. That game will not be necesary because even if the Dodgers played that game and lets say they lost. They would end up in a tie with the Magueyes. Both teams would end with identical 7-5 records. The RC Dodgers would advance because they defeated the Magueyes twice during the regular season.



Happy Father's Day


June 9, 2025

Fatherhood is a journey of love, sacrifice, and commitment. It is about being present, not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually. Fathers shape our values, influence our choices, and inspire us to strive for excellence. The legacy of a good father is evident in the character of his children, in the way they treat others. This Father's day, let us express our gratitude for the fathers and father figures in our lives. Let us acknowledge their sacrifices, appreciate their efforts, and celebrate their successes. Whether they are with us today or hold a cherished place in our memories, their influence remains a guiding light.

Playoff Predictions


June 9, 2025

Our playoff picture is set. Every playoffs I put up what I think will happen. My predictions are just that. What I think. I always have to say, don't nobody get their feelings hurt. What matters is what happens on the field.

In the Top Bracket
The obvious favorite has to be the Piratas. They have led this division the entire season and honestly they should win but...... I am going to go out on a limb and say Pacific Tires find a way to get past the Motorboaters and then work some magic and defeat the Pirates.

In the Middle Bracket
This division has belong to Mirimire all season. Mirimire has split the season series with both the Perros and the Colts. Mirimire beat up on the rest of the division going 7-1. The favorite has to be Mirimire but to be honest all three teams look awfully similiar. I think these 3 teams are going to have some epic battles but I have to assume that Mirimire some how comes out on top.

In the Bottom Bracket
We always seem to have some epic battles and our share of upsets in this division. I find this bracket to be the toughest of the 3. With that said, I have to say this season the two top teams seemed destine to meet in the finals. The interesting part of these match ups are that these teams have NOT faced each other all season. Rancheros vs. Bean Boys and Tomahawks vs. RC Dodgers will get their first look at each other in the playoffs. The Peloteros have beat up a few teams and look like a very strong offensive team. The Angels look a little bit better rounded team. I can't wait.

Poor Sportsmanship


June 9, 2025

This league has been around since 2008. I have been around beer leagues my whole life. One of my biggest compliant I always hear was the dreaded ringers. Every league has had issues with ringers. Most leagues don't do shit about ringers and just hope players don't want to talk about ringers. This is where the idea of league rosters come from. I try to make the process of team rosters easy. Lets face it, all I need from each team is a list of your players and a one time pic of each player. That's it. I don't really think that's very tough. It would take maybe 5 mins? Now I understand there are some teams that don't care about rosters and just want to play. Again I'm good with that but those same teams can't complain later about not only losing a game but also not playing that game because they didn't follow league rules.
  I bring all of this up, because yesterday I had two games that where decided because of roster issues. Both teams have been with me for more than a few seasons. One of these teams has never ever turned in a roster. To be honest this team in particular is not a very good team. Most opponents don't care and won't call them on it. So this team has had the good fortune of never being called out because of their lack of roster. Well that ended Sunday. What I don't understand is the Manager knows damn well you don't have a roster and you are willing to lose a game that way. So now your mad? I would understand if you are new to our league and were not aware of the league rules but you know damn well that's not the case. Again I understand not be pleased if my team lost a game because of a roster issue. I wait all week to play and drive over and get to the field and now no game because my manager didn't submit a roster? But to get mad at any other person including the other team?? That I don't get. They only one person that you need to address is your Manager.
  Another part I don't understand is, OK you lost because your Manager fucked up and now you start calling the other team "pussies", "You guys are afraid", or my favorite "I will kick your ass". Really??? I'm telling you. I think this is the most bullshit thing I have ever heard of. People need to take responsibility for their actions and not blame others.



Robert's Corner

  What a day. The weather was great and the last game of the season had some drama and great games. We had some roster drama in a couple of games. In one game, we had a team that has never posted a roster. In another game, we had an issue with non pictured players unable to provide an ID. This must be a new trend of not carrying any form of ID. I know it had to suck, not to be able to play just because players don't carry an ID's. With the playoffs about to start I am asking all teams to check your rosters. Remember all rostered players MUST HAVE A PIC. Any player without a player pic is not eligible to play. I have gone thru all playoff rosters and only two teams have no players without pics. So every other teams need to take a look at your rosters and send them in ASAP.
  For those that have not figured it out, we do not play next Sunday. Next Sunday is Father's day. We come back to baseball Sunday June 22.
 I have started to get a lot of calls regarding next season. I have quite a few teams that are interested in joining us for the Summer season. I will need to take roll on existing teams that plan to continue with us next season. Our first mandatory league meeting will be on Tuesday July 8. I hope to have our first game on Sunday July 13. We will continue with our 12 game season and our $1400 league fees. Hope to have all of you guys back for another season.

Illegal Bats

All -5 bats and up are illegal

 As we navigate through the 2025 baseball season, it’s important for us to stay updated on the latest changes and regulations that impact our game. One significant update was the decision to ban all drop 5 bats. This decision has been followed by most leagues and almost all nearby leagues. For those unfamiliar, the term "drop" in bat specifications refers to the difference between the length and weight of the bat. A drop 5 bat, for example, is five ounces lighter than its length in inches. There are many brands of -5 bats and I have even seen -10 bats but all -5 and up bats regardless of the brand or model are now banned.
  The problem is when big powerful players swing drop 5 bats, the resulting force can be hazardous putting pitchers and infielders are at a higher risk of injury due to the increased exit velocity of balls hit with -5 bats.
  We were one of the last leagues to allow -5 bats. In the past we allowed only B division teams to use these bats because we felt the impact would be very minimal. The time has now come to ban -5 bats in our league. By banning drop 5 bats and up, we aim to reduce these risks and ensure a safer playing environment for everyone. Player safety will always been a top priority. We fully support and join other leagues decisions to ban drop 5 bats in play.
