A League Scorekeeper may be appointed by the Board to compile records of play, maintain League standings, report game results during the playing season and perform such other duties as may be properly assigned by the President or Board. He will be paid a fee as determined by the Board and the League will provide him basic instructions in advance. The home score book will be the official score book at a scheduled League game. It shall be the responsibility of the winning team to report all game results immediately to the League Scorekeeper/Website. The home team must inform the Scorekeeper of any game postponements and the rescheduled date within 72 hours. II. PLAYER ELIGIBILITY §1. Service Area. The League serves amateur baseball players in Albany, Bennington (VT), Berkshire (MA), Columbia, Dutchess, Fulton, Greene, Montgomery, Rensselaer, Saratoga, Schenectady, Schoharie, Ulster, Warren and Washington Counties. §2. Team Territories. A member franchise may request that the Board grant them exclusive rights, in each League Division separately, to draw players who reside in particular school district territories and all players must reside in such territories except as otherwise provided in this section. If a member franchise has more than one school district, the district territories must be adjacent to each other. No member franchise may have exclusive rights to a territory or territories whose total combined school district population as set forth in the most current applicable “Bed Count” (As published for the current school year by the appropriate State Athletic Assoc.) exceeds 3,500. The maximum population penalty for adding a player from an open territory will be 300 or ½ of the Open Territory’s BED number, whichever is lower. If a member franchise wants a player on its roster from a territory of another member franchise, it must receive a release from that other franchise and his appearance on the roster will have no effect on the member franchise’s population count. If an open territory becomes closed due to the addition of a new franchise, Players rostered from previous seasons whom retain eligibility from that territory will have the option to choose which franchise to play with: their previous team or the newly created Franchise where they reside. If a Franchise holds a territory and rosters no players from said territory for 2 consecutive seasons, that territory will become open in the third season, and League teams may add players from that territory following the population count rules outlined above. In certain extraordinary situations in which the best interest of the League is served, the Board, by a vote of three fourths of all members present at a league meeting, may waive such requirements and may impose such limitations or requirements as it deems appropriate. §3. Rosters. Each team manager shall submit a completed League roster, proof of insurance and birth certificates copies for each player on its roster to the President and Secretary by the first day of the League season. A League Official shall not certify his own team’s roster. All players must be certified by League Officials each season before they are allowed to play. A player who is removed from a roster prior to July 1 must obtain a release from that team before being allowed to join another team, as well as being approved by majority vote of the membership. If a member franchise ceases to exist or is ejected from the league, its players may be added to another team roster, provided that the player’s school district population count shall be added to the new member franchise’s population count which shall not exceed 3,500. No team may have more than FIVE players from open territories on their roster. The size of a roster will be determined in accordance with the rules of AABC For League play, and for the appropriate sanctioning body, should a team qualify for a post-season berth for that affiliation. A player who is added to a roster may play as soon as the member franchise notifies the President or Secretary, but the member franchise must submit the updated roster with the player’s birth certificate via email, fax or in person, to the President or Secretary for certification within 72 hours. Any player legally listed or added to a team roster shall be eligible to play in League games. Teams may drop players from their roster before July 1st each season. Once a player is dropped from a roster, he cannot be added again, and will not be eligible for post-season play. After July 1st each season, players can be added to rosters to compete in League games, but they will not be eligible for post-season play For any sanctioning body the League should affiliate with. During an inactive season the franchise may grant one year releases to any players from their territories who wish to play for other teams in the league. An inactive franchise cannot refuse a release request for a player who wishes to play for other franchises within our league during inactivity. The inactive franchise will retain its franchise territory rights during their years of inactivity. If franchise reactivates, players with remaining eligibility will return to the reactivated franchise unless unconditionally released to another league franchise. If a franchise is absent and not excused from at least three of the regular meetings in October, February, March, and April, the Franchise will become inactive and their territories will be declared open for the upcoming season. §4. Releases. Any player committed to a team shall be considered committed to that team throughout his eligibility In each League Division, Connie Mack OR Mickey Mantle, unless released in writing by the member franchise. Provided, however, that a member franchise may limit the release to one year. Upon releasing a player from their territory for current playing season, and provided that player remains actively rostered with another League team, the member franchise may add a player from an open territory without incurring a penalty to their BED count total. §5. Residence. A player’s legal residence, except in the case of emancipated minors, shall be the residence of that player’s parent or legal guardian. S6. League Age. To be eligible for 13U Division play, a player must turn 14 on or after May 1 of the current season. To be eligible for 14U Division play, a player must turn 15 on or after May 1 of the current season. To be eligible for 15U Division play, a player must turn 16 on or after May 1 of the current season. To be eligible for 16U division play, a player must turn 17 on or after May 1 of the current season. To be eligible for 18U division play, a player must turn 19 on or after Jan 1 of the current season. To be eligible for post-season tournament play, all players must meet the age cut-off restrictions for the national sanctioning body tournament in which his team participates, or onto which team the player is drafted for post-season play. Teams will be able to roster players on their roster who are +1 year above the age maximum for each division with the following restrictions: • A maximum of THREE +1 players may be on 13U, 14U, 15U & 16U team rosters, and TWO on 18U Team roster. • +1 players cannot be added to a team roster after June 15 each season. • A +1 player cannot pitch more than TWO complete innings in any one League game, and no more than two +1 players may pitch in any one League game. 19 Year Old players on 18U team Rosters CANNOT pitch unless they are born on/after Jan 1 of the current season. • +1 players may not be on more than one franchise division rosters at the same time. For example, If a 17YO player starts the season on the 16U roster as a +1 player and is “called up” to the 18U team, he must remain on the 18U team roster for the remainder of the season. Conversely, if a 17YO player starts the season on the 18U division roster, and is “sent down” to the 16U division team as a +1 player, he must remain on the 16U team for the remainder of the season. No moves up or down of +1 players can occur after Jun 15 each season.

  • Al Brancato This Article Was Written by David E
    Al Brancato This article was written by David E. Skelton The fractured skull Philadelphia Athletics shortstop Skeeter Newsome suffered on April 9, 1938 left a gaping hole in the club’s defense. Ten players, including Newsome after he recovered, attempted to fill the void through the 1939 season. One was Al Brancato, a 20- year-old September call-up from Class-A ball who had never played shortstop professionally. Enticed by the youngster’s cannon right arm, Athletics manager Connie Mack moved him from third base to short in 1940. On June 21, after watching Brancato retire Chicago White Sox great Luke Appling on a hard-hit grounder, Mack exclaimed, “There’s no telling how good that boy is going to be.”1 Though no one in the organization expected the diminutive (5-feet-nine and 188 pounds) Philadelphia native’s offense to cause fans to forget former Athletics infield greats Home Run Baker or Eddie Collins, the club was satisfied that Brancato could fill in defensively. “You keep on fielding the way you are and I’ll do the worrying about your hitting,” Mack told Brancato in May 1941.2 Ironically, the youngster’s defensive skills would fail him before the season ended. In September, as the club spiraled to its eighth straight losing season, “baseball’s grand old gentleman” lashed out. “The infielders—[Benny] McCoy, Brancato and [Pete] Suder—are terrible,” Mack grumbled. “They have hit bottom. Suder is so slow it is painful to watch him; Brancato is erratic and McCoy is—oh, he’s just McCoy, that’s all.” 3 After the season ended Brancato enlisted in the US Navy following the country’s entry into the Second World War.

  • March 9, 1896 'Jim Yarrison'
    On This Date March 9, 1896 One of nine players from Gettysburg College to make it to the major leagues, Byron Ward- sworth Yarrison is born on March 9, 1896, in Montgomery, Pennsylvania. A pre-med major at Gettysburg, where he plays baseball under Hall of Fame pitcher Eddie Plank, a 26-year-old Yarrison makes his major league debut with the Philadelphia Athletics against the Boston Red Sox on April 13, 1922. In the first of three career starts, the 5-11, 165-pound right- hander allows four runs (all earned) on seven hits, two walks and one strikeout. In parts of two major league seasons with the Athletics (1922) and Brooklyn (1924), Yarrison is 1-4 with a 7.86 ERA while allowing 62 hits in 44 2/3 innings. During his senior year at Gettysburg, Plank convinces the side-winding Yarrison to become a true underhander, saying that it would increase his chances of making it to the major leagues. In 1920, Yarrison makes his pro debut hitting .216 in 25 games as a left fielder with Hanover of the Blue Ridge (D) League. Bought by Connie Mack and the Philadelphia Athletics, Yarrison is assigned to the Rocky Mount Tar Heels of the Virginia (B) League in 1921, where he is second in innings pitched (307) and tied for fourth in wins (20). In eight minor league sea- sons, Yarrison is 70-54, including an 1-2 mark in his final season in 1928 with the South Atlantic (B) League Greenville Spinners. Forced to give up his mound duties because of reoccurring arm problems, Yarrison signs with the South Atlantic (B) League Greenville Spinners.

  • Bill Werber and the First Televised Game
    Bill Werber and the first televised game ©DiamondsintheDusk.com By AL FEATHERSTON Bill Werber is a pretty obscure guy for a player Ed Barrow once called “the best player in the American League.” He was also the first basketball All-American at Duke University and became the last living teammate of Babe Ruth before his death at the age of 100 in 2009. But Werber should be recognized for another piece of history – he is the first player in Major League history to come to the plate in a televised game. “It was August 26, 1939 — I was lead- ing off for Cincinnati against the Dodg- ers,” he said in a 2008 interview. The game was tele- vised from Ebbets Field on station W2XBS (later to become WNBC-TV) as an experiment at the New York World’s Fair. Cincinnati Reds at Brooklyn Dodgers There were just 400 TV August 26, 1939 sets in the New York area at the time, but the television display at the Fair drew a large crowd. The inaugural telecast featured two cameras – one high above home plate and the other along the third base line. Dodger radio broadcaster Red Barber did the commentary. Werber led off against Brooklyn’s Luke Hamlin to become the first televised batter in baseball history. Werber didn’t recall the outcome of that first plate appearance, but he contributed a single and an RBI to the Reds’ 5-2 victory in that historic game. That was the first game of a doubleheader. The second game was also televised and Werber again led off for the Reds.

  • By John Quattrucci East Bridgewater Star “May His Leadership and Fierce
    By John Quattrucci East Bridgewater Star “May his leadership and fierce competitive spirit be an inspiration to the youth of Bridgewater” -Inscription on a plaque dedicated to Hall of Fame catcher and Bridgewater native Mickey Cochrane on the Bridgewater Town Common On Oct. 20, 1931, in the town of Spavinaw, Okla., the oldest son of Lovell and Elvin ‘Mutt’ Mantle was born. Elvin Mantle, a lead miner and fervent baseball fan, named his son ‘Mickey’, after his favorite ballplayer, Gordon Stanley ‘Mickey’ Cochrane, born in Bridgewater, April 6, 1903. Twenty-two years later, Cochrane was on his way to establishing himself as one of the greatest catchers in baseball history as a member of Connie Mack’s Philadelphia A’s. Cochrane won the American League MVP award in 1928 and helped the A’s to three straight American League pennants in 1929, 1930 and 1931 (winning the World Series in ’29 and ’30). Sold in 1933 to the Detroit Tigers, Cochrane became player/ manager, winning a second MVP award in 1934 while leading the Tigers to the pennant. The Tigers won another pennant under Cochrane in ’35 and defeated the Chicago Cubs in the World Series, 4 games to 2. Cochrane, considered the fastest man to ever play the position, retired from baseball after the 1937 season and was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1947. His .320 lifetime batting average is still the all-time mark for a catcher. Along the way, Cochrane played with all-time greats Ty Cobb, Tris Speaker, Lefty Grove, Jimmy Foxx and Al Simmons in Philadelphia, Hank Greenberg and Charlie Gehringer in Detroit, and in retirement rubbed elbows with the likes of Babe Ruth, Maurice Chevalier, Fred Astair, Bob Hope and Joe E.
