By LOU PAVLOVICH, JR. Editor/Collegiate Baseball NDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — The NCAA Baseball Rules Committee proposed the use of one- Iway electronic communication devices for the purpose of calling pitches and plays. It was then approved by the NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel. The rule goes into effect for the 2022 season. Examples of what could be implemented next season include teams utilizing electronic display boards from dugouts that show a numerical code to call pitches and offensive/defensive plays. Teams also are allowed to use a one-way, in-ear communication device that would be limited for use from a person in the dugout to the catcher. Several conferences, including the Atlantic Coast, Big Ten, Pac-12, Southeastern and Sun Belt, experimented with these devices in 2021. Experimentation with one-way wireless communication from a coach in the dugout to the catcher has been taking place since 2018 by Southeastern Conference teams. The coach tells the catcher what pitch to throw UNFORGETTABLE BASEBALL PLAYERS — Lou Pavlovich and what location. talks about four remarkable ball players who he will never forget.

  • Cape Cod Baseball League Teams up with Pierce-Cote/Regan Communications Group
    Cape Cod Baseball League Teams Up with Pierce‐Cote/Regan Communications Group Contact: Sean Gonsalves, Regan Communications (508) 420‐5566 ext. 118 (w) 617‐308‐8393 (c) [email protected] Cape Cod, MA – Pierce‐Cote/Regan Communications Group (PC/RCG) has a new teammate. The Cape Cod Baseball League (CCBL) – the nation’s premier summer collegiate baseball league – has retained the services of the premier integrated marketing communications firm in the region to assist the CCBL in elevating the league’s baseball brand. “This is a match made on a field of dreams. We’ve long been recognized as the league where fans can see the stars of tomorrow play today,” said CCBL President Chuck Sturtevant. “Bringing a power‐house like Pierce‐Cote/Regan Communications on board will help us extend the reach of our unique brand of baseball and all that it offers players and fans alike.” With one out of every six current Major League Baseball players among CCBL alumni, the league is as strong as it has ever been. However, with the emergence of other summer leagues, the advent of social media, and a rapidly changing media landscape, CCBL does not intend to rest on its laurels. “Since our founding in 1885, the Cape League has relied on the commitment of a mostly volunteer staff to handle all of the administrative and communications work. We remain confident in the product we offer, but in this day and age we have to work harder than ever to keep the Cape League at the forefront of amateur baseball for generations to come,” Sturtevant said.

  • Freedom to HAVE a ACTIVITIESGREAT TIME GUIDE
    SUMMER 2016 CAPE COD, MASSACHUSETTS freedom TO HAVE A ACTIVITIESGREAT TIME GUIDE Club Member News Summer 2015 2 3 3 History Samuel Mayo Nickerson and his wife Matilda built their Brewster summer residence on a bluff overlooking Cape Cod Bay in 1890. It included Fieldstone Hall, a carriage house, a 9-hole golf course, a stone tower used to generate electricity and private game preserve. The estate was occupied by their son Roland and his wife Addie. Socially and politically prominent, the Nickersons entertained frequently and lavishly. It was not uncommon for the social event of the year to be held at Fieldstone Hall. In 1906, Fieldstone Hall burned to the ground. Construction began a year later and the new Mansion was completed in 1912. It closely resembled an English country manor with an eclectic blend of Renaissance Revival and Gothic themes. One of the Mansion‘s most striking features is the intricately carved oak staircase leading to the second floor. In 1945, the Nickerson Mansion was sold to the La Salette religious order where it served as a seminary and college for men. In 1979, Corcoran Jennison purchased the Mansion, Carriage House and the 52- acre parcel to eventually develop what Resort Guests and Club Members now know as Ocean Edge Resort & Golf Club. Today, the Mansion and Carriage House have been enhanced to befit their historic character; including period furnishings and appropriate finishes to newly restored wood. There is 21,000 square feet of function space throughout the resort, Cape Cod’s only Nicklaus Design Golf Course, three exquisite restaurants, 338 guest rooms, eleven tennis courts, private beach, and five pools.
