After years of knocking on the door of the AABC National World Series, the Albany Athletics program fi nally broke through in 2010. The team captured its fi rst ever North Atlantic Regional title enroute to its fi rst World Series berth in Houston, Texas last August capturing the excitement of fans, friends, and especially the Albany Twilight League. Many watched the games from their home computers as the Athletics games streamed live on the World Series web site. The league had fi nally sent a team to the World Series for the fi rst time since the 1989 Apex Printing team, and furthermore, the Athletics were only the third Twilight team in the league’s 80-year history to have made it to a Stan Musial World Series. REGULAR SEASON Traditionally, the League pits the previous year’s champion and runner up against each other to kick off the Twilight season. In 2010, the defending champion Athletics opened with runner up Nolan Propane for the second straight season and had somewhat of the same result. A’s starter Jim Shook twirled a no-hitter and fanned 13 batters while Justin Meagher a three-run double to help Albany start the regular season with a 3-0 win on the League’s Opening Night for the fourth season in a row. However, the A’s went on to win just two of their next four games to begin the year 3-2—a far cry from the traditional fast start they are used to. However, a short two-game losing streak in the fi rst fi ve games sparked the team to win 16 straight league games and close 20-4 in the league regular season. They also fi nished 29-7-1 overall. Along the way Albany put up a gaudy offensive numbers and kept opponents to three runs or less 29 times in all regular season games including losses. Heading into the postseason, the A’s had recorded 13 shutouts including a streak of fi ve consecutive shutouts at one point and eight out of nine games. A highlight during the regular season came when the A’s shutout the Albany Dutchmen of the Perfect Game Collegiate League 3-0 in the annual Mayor’s Trophy game which pits the Dutchmen against the League’s previous year’s champion. Dan Barbero hit a fi rst inning two-run homer while Shook fanned 13 batters and hurled a complete game. TWILIGHT PLAYOFFS For the 5th consecutive year the A’s fi nished with the most wins in the league and earned the #1 seed in the playoffs for the 4th time since 2006. They nearly swept through the playoffs losing only one playoff game—the fi rst playoff loss since the 2008 season. In the ATL Semifi nal Series, Albany swept its best-of-three series over #4 seeded Blue Slate Bluehawks 1-0 in game #1 and 3-0in game #2 on back-to-back nights with Shook and left hander Chris Smith earning wins each night. The A’s scored its lone run in game #1 on a wild pitch. A day later, they got a two-run homer from Al Barbato to spark the offense in game #2. In the Championship Series, the A’s fell 5-0 in game #1 immediately following their return from Houston, but bounced back to sweep the next three. In game #2, Barbero hit a grand slam to spark a 12-run fi fth inning to help the A’s win 20-10. In game #3, Casey Walsh trucks out 10 and John Marcella hit a two-run homer to help the Athletics to an 8-1 victory. In the clincher, Barbato and Sean Donovan homered to lead the offense in an 8-5 win and the A’s fourth league championship. Barbato was the playoff MVP for going 9-for-21 with 6 RBI in the semis and fi nals. The Athletics won their second straight title and upped their playoff record to 22-4 in the ATL playoffs going back to 2006. AABC POSTSEASON By winning the ATL regular season, the Athletics earned a BYE past the AABC Upper State Tournament and went straight to their 10th North Atlantic Regional Tournament since 1998. The Twilight League hosted the event and the stage was set for a historic Regional tour- nament at Keenholts Park in Guilderland. Perennial power Long Island Storm was making its 14th consecutive Regional appearance and was fresh off a 3rd place fi nish in the Stan Musial World Series in 2009 and previously won the national championship in 2006. They were the team to beat once again and the A’s set their sights on facing them to determine the 2010 champ. In the fi rst round, Jason Martin and Barbato went deep for homers igniting a 7-3 victory over the New Jersey South champion, Buena Vista 2010 IN REVIEW Tomahawks. Zach Halloran doubled twice and drove in a run while rookie Matt Montross threw a complete game three-hitter. In the second round against the New Jersey North champion, North Haledon Reds, Martin singled in a run and doubled in two runs to account for all of Albany’s offense in a 3-0 victory. With just four teams remaining in the tournament heading into the third round, the A’s and Storm were the only 2-0 teams in the tournament. They would play a pivotal game, one that would also help determine a bye in the fourth round. Despite the A’s spotting the Storm a 2-0 lead after one inning, Barbato erased the defi cit with a two-run shot in the third inning then Meagher blasted a two-run homer in the fi fth inning to 2 lead the A’s to a 4-3 victory. Walsh threw a complete game striking out fi ve and propelling Albany to a 3-0 record in the tournament and a bye to the championship game.

A’s Have Historic Year Winning Regional title

Later in the day the Storm eliminated North Haledon to set the stage for a rematch in the championship. Long Island defeated the Athletics 3-2 in 10 innings despite a complete game seven-hitter by Shook forcing a second championship game. In the decisive game of the Regional, the A’s fi nally prevailed by an 11-7 margin to capture their fi rst Regional crown and advance to the National World Series in Houston. In the fi rst inning, Martin singled in a run and Mike Zgorzelski smacked a three-run homer to spark a fi ve-run inning to start the game. But a 5-0 lead didn’t last long as the Storm put four runs across in the bottom of the fi rst and second innings to make it 5-4. Martin and Barbero then hit solo homers in the third and Albany opened up an 8-5 lead by the fi fth inning. The Storm closed the gap again to make it 8-7 until Martin laced a two-run single in the sixth opening up the lead once again. Chris Smith came on in the fi fth to retire two batters in relief of starter Andrew Mondo, then Shook relieved Smith to close down the Storm and lead the A’s to victory. Martin went an astounding 10-for-16 with 10 RBI and three home runs in the tournament while Shook was 2-1 with 15 strikeouts in 16.2 innings. Both shared co-MVP honors.

NATIONAL WORLD SERIES – HOUSTON, TEXAS Slightly more than 48 hours later, a team of 21 players and two coaches took fl ight to Houston for the National World Series ta Baseball USA. The team opened its fi rst ever game against a team west of the Mississippi at 4 pm against the Dallas Royals—the South Plains winner. It was evident the 104 degree heat was a factor early on with the A’s falling behind 2-0 then 4-2 after two innings, but Meagher doubled in a pair of runs in to knot the game at 4-4 in the bottom of the second inning. However, it wasn’t until the sixth inning that the game was untied with Martin slamming a three-run shot, Zgorzelski hitting a solo shot and Joe DeMarco fi nishing the scoring of an eight-run rally with a three-run ouble.d Walsh threw a nine-inning complete game and retired 22 straight hitters after the second inning. The A’s fi nished with a 13-5 victory and its fi rst World Series win. Unfortunately, the ride was about to end as the Athletics faced 2009 National Champion, the Bayamon Vaqueros of Puerto Rico. Despite a solid pitching outing by Shawn Ryan and a pair of singles each for Barbero and John Marcella, Albany fell 6-0 to Bayamon. In the losers bracket, the A’s faced perennial East Central powerhouse Canton Stallions. Martin and Zgorzelski helped the A’s to an early 2-0 lead but thanks to a pair of two-run home runs, the Stallions took a 4-3 lead heading into the ninth inning. In the ninth, Greg Sulz hit a pinch-hit single, moved to second on a sacrifi ce bunt, then scored on a single by Barbero to tie it at 4-4 to push the game into extra innings. In the bottom of the tenth, Canton hit a two-run to dash any hopes the Athletics had of winning a national championship in their fi rst World Series. The Stallions

would use that victory to springboard to three straight wins in the Series and the 2010 National Championship over Bayamon. Check out the video recap of the Athletics 2010 World Series run on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFJSeKRXKuE or just search Albany Athletics on YouTube.
