Original Highlander would be proud

"Jack" Doyle was an Irish-American first baseman in Major League Baseball at the Turn of the 20th century


whose career spanned 17 seasons, mainly in the National League.but spent the 1905 with the New York Highlanders. His aggressive playing style earned him the name Dirty Jack,” as he often feuded with umpires, fans, opposing players, and even, at times, his own teammates. On one occasion, in Cincinnati on July 4, 1900, while in the 3rd inning of the second game of a doubleheader, Doyle slugged umpire Bob Emslie after being called out on a steal attempt. Fans jumped from the stands as the two got into it, and players finally separated the two fighters.

Something tells me that Jack would have been proud of the Softball Highlanders who this year played under his name sponsorship to capture the Chelsea Fast Pitch Championship.



































The victory marked the Triumphant return of Mount Rushmore Manager Dio Jackson (didn't he retire???? Decide already!)



Gotta give Dio credit, at least he has style, as another championship belt notch was earned


as his talented hard nosed team












defeated Three Time Champion Brugal in a great series. Classy and Talented

Frank "Frankie Fastball" Cammallare was their MVP!

Softball Sign of the Times

It's Softball Sign of the the TIMES again

 

as the The New York Times won its fourth straight New York Press League title with and 8-0 win over Sports Illustrated.

Mike Peckins won his second straight MVP of the playoffs with a 6-hit shutout and threw 16 scoreless innings in the post season.




The New York Press League has been playing since 1977 and this is the first time a club has won four straight post season titles.



The New York Times did win four in a row from '77 to '81, but the League did not play in 1978 due to the great Writers' Strike of '78. The game marked the end of the line for long time Sports Illustrated pitcher and utility man Doug Goodman. Goodman, who took the loss allowing only 5 earned runs, was one of only 2 active players left who played in each of the 38 seasons of the New York Press League. Goodman also served as the Commissioner of the Press League for 10 seasons.

Congrats, True Dynsasty
