February 14, 20223 yr Unaffiliated minor league team to debut in June against the Weimar Hormigas in Pecos League competition. Alpine is the other Texas team in this league, which also has teams in a strange mix of cities including former big-time minor league towns like Tucson, Colorado Springs, and Bakersfield and then places like Weimar, Wasco CA, and Garden City, Kansas. The Weirdos will play at Zaragoza Park in Austin. Home jersey: Alternate jersey:

February 14, 20223 yr I would like to take in a game at Kokernot Field in Alpine. Looks like a nice place to eat some popcorn, drink a drink or two, and watch a ball game.

I remember when Stanford came in to town, Sunday morning they announced the tourney sites, and the Huskies punched them out for the Pac 10 north autobid. I suspect you've been to more games at Graves Field than I have. (1) Edited February 14, 20223 yr by petscii

Then a couple of years later of complaining, they decided to have the North and South champs play for the autobid. It wasn't till after I left that they kicked out UoP, PSU, and Gonzaga, and had the whole conference play a round-robin.

Played a few times there in high school…and then beer league softball, I think. this article made me smile. https://www.victoriaadvocate.com/advosports/sports/highschool/on-sports-babe-ruth-world-series-returning-to-weimar/article_0fb5750f-7350-5889-890d-af31fa763082.html [quote]I met the late Al Kasparek, Weimar's Mr. Baseball, at the park and he never failed to introduce to me his friends, many of whom would sit in lawn chairs lined up against the fence behind home plate. I watched Al's grandson, Kenn, pitch at the stadium before going on to be part of a national championship team at the University of Texas. I remember cramming into the stands behind home plate before the press box was expanded to watch Yoakum's Randy Boone and La Grange's Homer Bailey pitch in a playoff game. Bailey's stuff looked unhittable, but somehow B.J. Boening drove two balls over the fence to lead Yoakum to a win[/quote] Edited February 15, 20223 yr by UTexasFight

February 15, 20223 yr Csb: In OOTP 21 I made a full 28 team fictional MLB league, with a 3 level minor league system. I picked the cities and thought of names for all the MLB teams & most of the minors. One MLB team was the Dallas Desperados (AFL nod), and I named their AA affiliate the Austin Weirdos. My other ones I’m proud of: Chicago Mob New York Night Angels St Louis Loons Henderson High Rollers (Vegas AAA team)

Although if you haven’t had a burger at a game there you’re missing out on one of the best in Austin.
August 1, 20232 yr That almost-18 ERA is truly special. This is the IMDb tagline from the Pecos League series awhile back... Quote The Pecos league is an independent baseball league where the players are good but the field, equipment, and pay sucks. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3712220/

August 1, 20232 yr Holy cow. That is pretty bad. They kicked us off the field we were using for our games, we should protest to get it back as they are terrible. Oof. That has to be a beating sitting out in the field just getting whipped like that.
August 1, 20232 yr 16 hours ago, Beau Vine said: Tough season: Seriously, if someone can throw even in the low 80s, how can you not get some pop ups or ground outs off that to keep the ERA lower? I don't even know if a batting tee would have an ERA of 18.
