Orlando Baseball Announcements
June 17, 2020 - Baseball UpdateHi Men,
How is everybody doing? I wonder if you`re as anxious to get back out there as I am..We continue to be in
a holding pattern because of our fields being closed. Orange County just backed off their commitment to
reopen in August because of the uptick in hospitalizations. However, I may be able to offer a soft
opportunity to play or at least get back out there soon. ..At this point, we have Father`s Day next week,
followed shortly thereafter by the July 4 holidays, and the searing heat of a Florida summer. If I can get
something lined up to start in early August, on some different fields, would you guys be interested? On
the assumption there is not some cataclysmic event for the better or worse, would you be interested in
starting play again in August and going through Thanksgiving?
Email me directly at blevinsknows@hotmail.com, or let your manager know.
Thanks, I miss you guys.
PS Here`s my Dan Newlin CYA note, I see some are out and about, playing and practicing with other
teams, other leagues, etc.I think that`s great, but please understand that our Liability Insurance only
covers you in our league`s play and on our fields. Ridiculous that we have to say that, but the massive
liability (and medical) exposure that comes with playing right now is on you and the guys that are out
there alone. The Central Florida Men`s Senior Baseball League, orlandobaseball.com and myself
personally and the Board of Directors hereby disavows any legal association and exposure with any
activities baseball- related by our membership until such time as the league as a whole consents and
accedes to said.
Let me know about your thoughts on the fall schedule. The sooner we can book it, the sooner we can all
have something to look forward to!
March 09, 2020 - Expos Win! The Expos won their second game of the season in walk off fashion. After being dominated for most of the
game by strong Braves pitching, the Expos trailed 6-0 going into the bottom of the 7th inning. They began
their rally with hits by Brandon Wilds, Kevin Salcedo and Cam Alba before Joe Machovina walked up to
the plate with the bases loaded. He smashed a double to the left-center gap, just missing a grand slam,
plating 3 and bringing the score to 6-5. In the top of the 8th, the Braves scored another run to pad their
lead going into the bottom of the 8th and final inning. The Expos didn`t panic and put the first three
runners on base before Cam Alba drove a game winning double down the line to walk off the win.
Greg Kalogridis got the win with two solid innings in relief of Graham "never say die" Frederick. This was
his first time pitching in the leagues, but we hope not his last. Expos move to 2-2 on the season and hope
to win with out a walk off one of these days.
January 28, 2020 - Signup and registrationThis Sunday, February 2, we will have a signup and registration at Edgewater High School at 10 AM. This will

December 18, 2019 - RockOn are the champs...again!Snatching victory from the jaws of defeat, the Rock On were down to their last strike, down 5-4, two outs,
nobody on in the bottom of the 9th to the Rangers for the fall championship. The baseball Gods, divine
providence, Murphy`s Law or just bad karma jumped up and bit Chris Pio`s bunch. Line drive to left, diving
attempt came up empty, ball rolled to the wall, batter circled the bases for the tie.
You could almost predict what was to come next, Rangers come up scoreless in the top of the 10th, in the
bottom half a hit batter, stolen base, ground ball to advance the runner to third, then a base knock to win it.
Congratulations to Paul Belknap and the gang, this one wasn`t easy, but these guys find a way to win, and
they remain atop the league for another season.
December 10, 2019 - Polk Sox are the 38 + Champs!The Polk County Sox take the 2019 Fall championship game by a 15 to 6 score over the Orlando Blazers.
The Sox took an early lead and held on as the Blazers battled back to make it close before tacking on 4
runs in the 6th and 3 in the 8th to pull away. Eric Haynes started and went 8 innings, striking out 3 and
working out of a couple jams while allowing only 2 earned runs then handing the ball over to Pete
Gonzalez who struck out one to close it out. The Sox had 20 hits on the day, led by Haynes and Randy
Phillips who had 3 hits. Sean Williams, Joey Neira, Jason Diaz, Polo Segarra, Ric Moots, Hector Gonzalez
all had two hits and Lorne Wheatcraft and Jared Brown chipped in with a key hit as well. This is the
first championship for the Polk Sox, not easy with the amount of travel and logistics it takes to put
together a team each week. But Ric Moots and the boys did it, and for this season anyway, someone other
than the pHillies can be called the best of us! Congratulations men.

June 04, 2019 - All Star Sunday a Sweltering Success!The Interleague All Star Games with the Orlando Baseball Association was a great time had by everybody,
and the expanded Skills Competition featured some great performances and raised some good money for
both Edgewater High School baseball and the Save the Children Foundation.
The OBA won both games, but both were competitive on a scorcher of a June Sunday. The older guys
division MVP was Felix Soto Toro of the Cubs. The younger division was a close game that ended 11-10,
with Alex Rodriguez of the Brewers winning the MVP honors, as well as managing the team. Chris Stahl of
the Expos cracked a three run home run for the MSBL.
The skills competition winners included Kevin Laguna, the 2019 HR Derby king, triumphing over 20
competitors.In a remarkable double win, Kevin also was Central Florida Baseball`s fastest man, rounding the bases in just over 15 seconds.
Anthony Kazmerczyk was the bunting champion, which was ironic as I don`t ever recall him
being called upon to bunt in his 5 plus years in the league. Jeff Shebovsky was the outfield throwing
accuracy champion, putting a throw into a small bucket from 250 feet.

May 21, 2019 - PHILLIES and RockON Rule AnewTim Nowe singled in Howard Williams with the winning run in the bottom of the 12th inning to win a
marathon championship game for Dan Jarvis and the vaunted Phillies Sunday. Carlos Ruperto and the
Blazers gave the champs everything they wanted, but time after time Phillie hurler supreme Scott Budds
wriggled off the hook. Rick Sanders and Tony Caruso were equally tough for the Blazers, but the clutch
hits did the final damage on this day. Congratulations to the Phillies, this is really a remarkable run of
success.
Paul Belknap and his Rock On crew barreled through the continuation of the semi-final game, defeating
the Brunch Sunday morning, then followed that immediately with a resounding victory over the upstart
Cubs, who had upset the regular season champion Rangers in the other semi-final. When the RO are
clicking on all cylinders, they`re a tough bunch to beat, and this game was no exception.

May 16, 2019 - Championship Sunday!! The Blazers will attempt to dethrone the mighty Phillies on Sunday at 9 AM at Edgewater High School.
The Phillies have dominated the division for so many seasons I`ve lost track, but this is a great Blazers
team, should be a great game!!
The Brunch and the Rock On will resume their game at South Orange that was suspended by rain in the
4th inning, with the Rock On enjoying a slim 1-0 lead. The winner earns the right to immediately face the
Clermont Cubs, who were upset winners over the regular season winning Rangers in the other semi-final,
in a game that follows immediately afterward. Estimated start time for that game is 11 AM.
Plenty of good seats available for each game! Details on the All Star Extravaganza at Edgewater High
School on June 2 will be published shortly!

January 13, 2019 - Spring season 2019!!! We`re going to get going early this year, try and stay out of the summer heat a bit ...So new players, free
agents and returning players, we`re going to have a signup and short workout next Sunday the 20th, and
you should be on a team and playing ball that day! If we can get a few things together, we will be playing
games the following Sunday the 27th!
Next Sunday, the 20th of January, we`ll throw it around a bit, take a few cuts and a short IF/OF. Not a
tryout, just a workout, the main thing is to make sure we help teams replace and replenish players who
have moved out of the area or hung it up. We`ll have it at Edgewater High School in College Park. If you
Google Map it, come in through the back entrance, which is found by turning on Westmoreland from
Maury. Come up a couple blocks, and you`ll see the field on your left. Pull in there and you can park next
to the field. You might want to move a ways from the door, to avoid foul balls.
It`s a nice field, the coach is working hard on it, so we want to warm up and throw in the OF. No big
worries, just a light workout, we have a spot for everyone..10:30 Am for registration, 11 for the workout,
we should have you out of there 12:30ish, if you`re a football fan. $150 dues for the spring, which gets you
membership,fields, umps, balls, awards, website, liability insurance (not medical!), playoffs, eligibility for
tournaments and some great camaraderie with some like-minded folks in Orlando`s longest continuously
operating men`s baseball league. Uniforms and hats and equipment may not be supplied by the teams,
though some have team helmets, gear and a few have team uniforms. You can use a credit card on the
PayPal button on the left of this note, or you can mail a check to CFL MSBL, PO Box 4025, Apopka, FL
32704. If you can`t pay that day, then just as soon as you can, we have a pretty simple rule, No Pay, No
Play.

way. Jason Diaz had two hits and two RBIs. Pirates 8, Rangers 8
The Pirates were unable to hold an 8-3 lead in the last inning on Sunday, as poor relief pitching undid a
gutsy 5-inning effort from Alex Reszitnyk. Matt Alacci, Matt Johnson, and Reszitnyk each collected two
hits. The Pirates also stole nine bases but left 10 runners stranded. Cubs - 5 Rock On 2
Felix Reyes throws another gem. Striking out 8 and only giving up 1 earned run in 8 innings. Cubs Scored

door and get the save.

Pirates scored in each of the first four innings to build an 8-4 lead and held on for an 8-8 tie in 7 innings

August 15, 2018 - Fall Draft and RegistrationThis Sunday, the 19th of August, at 10 AM at Edgewater High School is the date and time for the fall draft. All
teams are looking for new players! Everybody is welcome, new players to the league and those returning but
looking for a new start. The best way to reach the field is to turn on N. Westmoreland off Maury, come down a couple of blocks, and turn
left behind the field. We`ll have a light workout, get you picked out and on a team, and on your way by noon, if all goes well. Remember,
it`s a light workout, not a tryout, so the main thing is to get stretched out properly and refrain from straining anything. It`s not a skills
assessment, it`s just so we can match guys to teams that need what they play. The league costs $140 this fall, for 12 games plus playoffs,
if eligible. We start the 26th of August and hope to wrap up the regular season before Thanksgiving. Balls, fields, umps, liability insurance,
(not medical) are included, among other things. There may be a slight additional charge for uniform tops and/or hats. You can bring a
check, cash or Money Order, you can pay with a credit card on the league website using the PayPal Service, (button on the left), you can mail
it to CFL MSBL, PO Box 4025, Apopka, FL 32704, but without paying, there is no playing, unfortunately. Let me know if we can expect to
see you out there, send a note to blevinsknows@hotmail.com or just come on out. We look forward to having you in the league!

June 24, 2018 - Phillies Repeat, Cubs and Nationals New Championship!The Phillies repeated (and repeated, and repeated, and....) The Cubs won their first championship, and the Nationals won their first. Game
details to follow!  For the Cubs, Randy Davis goes
the distance, striking out 6 in the 10-3 Victory. The Brunch bats were held to only 4 hits,
Cubs Hitters included Redlin 3-3 with 3 singles, Vasquez 2-3, 2 singles and 2 RBI. Stone was 2-4 with 2 singles, Page, J 2-4 with 2 singles and
2 RBI. Mike Skyles and Jeremy Louderback saw their efforts in building a championship caliber team pay off, with their first crown. Heavy
favorites RockOn were knocked out in the morning game by the upstart Brunch in a 3-2 classic. That left a tall order for the Brunch in the
June heat, to have to win 2 games on the same day. They hung in for 5 innings, but wore down eventually, and the Cubs took advantage.
For the Nationals, Kutler Lane pitched a complete game gem, giving up no earned runs, and managers Patrick Smith and Bradlee Cox had
their first crown in only their second season. The Mets gave them a game, but came up short of being the Cinderella at this year`s ball.
For the 38+ Phillies, a 6th championship in the last seven seasons seems like routine, but that accomplishment is anything but. Scott
Budds went the distance for the Phils, holding the hard-hitting A`s off the score board until the last frame. Manager Dan Jarvis and the
Phillies kept up the offensive pressure on every pitcher A`s manager Adam Bransfield threw out there, and the Fightin`s were able to coast to
victory. Congratulations to all of our champions, to all of our playoff contestants, and a hearty thank you to all players, our umpires, and
especially our friends and families who allow us the time to be able to come out and play this wonderful, confounding children`s game. Have
a great summer, details on the fall season will be released before you know it!

June 18, 2018 - Playoff Results - Old Standbys and New FacesThe Mets had a combined pitching effort by Paul Messina, Matt Soletti, and Kai Maynor, holding the tough-
hitting Bears to only 3 runs. They had timely hitting by Stephen Pokol, hitting a double and driving in two
runs, late in the game, to tie the game at 3. In the top of the seventh inning, Matt Soletti hit a double, driving in
Kevin Green for the go-ahead run. For good measure, Thomas Doty drove in the fifth and final run of the
game for the Mets, making the final score 5-3 in favor of the Mets and allowing the Mets to move on to the
championship game against the Nationals next Sunday. Orlando Brunch was victorious over Rangers, 5-2
In the first inning, Orlando Brunch got their offense started when Shaun Delozier doubled on a 1-0 count, scoring one run.
Delozier earned the victory on the hill for Orlando Brunch. He allowed 11 hits and two runs over nine innings, striking out ten.

hits for Rangers. Sosa led Rangers with three hits in four at bats. The Brunch will face the Rock On, with the inner to face the Cubs, who
knocked off the Expos 15-2 for the 25+ championship.
For the veterans, a couple of old rivals will face off for the championship this spring. The A`s pulled off a double steal to tie the game with the
Yankees late, then executed a suicide squeeze to win it, to ice the comeback victory over the upstart Yankees, led by manager Eric
Echevarria. After falling behind 3-0 and 4-1 early, the A`s
battled back to win against a much-improved
Yankees squad 6-4 at Seminole. Evan Loicono
(3-3 with a run scored) and Russ Miller (2-3)
paced the offense. Starter Joe Hamilla and
reliever Tony Burnham combined with a solid
defensive effort held the Yanks to one run over
the final eight frames to capture the win. The Phillies traveled to Lakeland to face the resurgent Polk Sox, and came home victorious and
set for the final game. Warren
Hanson went the distance giving up just 2 unearned runs and striking out 7. Scott Budds led the Phillie comeback with a bases clearing
double with 3 on. The Sox side of the story went like this: Sox score 1 unearned run in the 1st and 2nd innings to take the lead early. Eric
Haynes was in command early not allowing a runner past 2nd thru the first 5 innings, but in the 6th the Phillies score 3 unearned runs to take
the lead. The Phillies score 3 more in the 8th (1 earned) and 1 more unearned in the 9th to cap a 7 to 2 victory. Warren Hanson settled down
after the 2nd inning, going the distance for the win, picking up 7 K`s along the way. For the Sox Haynes went 7 innings giving up 1 earned run
with 4 K`s taking the tough luck loss. At the plate for the Sox Haynes led the way with 3 hits, Lorne Wheatcraft and Paul Segarra had 2 each
and Randy Phillips, Ric Moots and Pete Gonzalez each had 1 hit. For the Phillies Hanson helped his cause at the plate with 2 hits and Budds
had the big hit of the day, a double in the 6th to give the Phillies the lead that they would not relinquish.

their first non-forfeited win of the season. Alacci did not allow a run to score after the first inning and
consistently stranded runners in scoring position by using off-speed pitches to strike out Bears. Alacci

Albright (2-3, SB, R), Paul Kilgas (1-3, 2 SB, R) and Chris Shogren (1-3, SB, RBI). In all, the Twins stole 9

August 02, 2017 - Fall Baseball!!We are getting ready to play some fall baseball! Hopefully the rains will slack off, and it will cool down a
bit and we will be ready to go! Our fall registration and draft will take place at 10 AM on Sunday, August 13
at South Orange Youth Baseball Complex, 11,800 S. Orange Ave. in Orlando, 32824. Try and arrive at 9:30
to fill out a little paperwork and get warmed up. Hopefully we will get you a light workout, picked out on a
team and on your way shortly after noon! (By light workout, I mean light, a few swings, a half-speed
infield/OF, maybe the pitchers and catchers throwing it around a bit. No injuries is the key. Everybody will
get a spot, we`re just concerned with making sure a team doesn`t end up with three 2nd basemen.)
We will play 12 games this fall, every Sunday between the 27th of August and Thanksgiving, except for
Labor Day. We play all over town, and games usually start at 9 or 12:30 PM, with occasional late afternoon
games. Membership, umpires certified in high school or better, decent balls, liability insurance, website,
playoffs, awards, camaraderie and miscellaneous are all yours this fall for $140. You must pay to play in
this league, and each player is responsible for his or her own dues. You can pay by check, cash or Money
Order at the registration, payable to CFL MSBL, or you can use a credit card on the PayPal button to your
left. (Please add an extra $5 for PayPal if you do that.) Each Friday a list is sent out to the managers on
who is eligible that Sunday.(paid). No player may participate who is not. That takes the onus off the
manager, it works out well, and protects the rights and playing time of the player who is protected against
ringers and outsiders who might take their At Bats, etc. Additionally, we tolerate zero malcontents, guys
who like to argue with umps, fight, etc. We all have to go to work on Monday.
This is our 50th season! We are the longest serving amateur baseball league for men in the state! (Not
even sure that`s true, but it sounds cool..) There are cheaper options, but we keep smaller rosters so that
there is more playing time. We have open substitutions on defense and elongated batting orders so that
everyone feels a part of the game. You paid, you should play! If that sounds good to you, we would love to
have you in the league! Also note that uniforms and medical insurance are NOT included. Some teams
have small charges for the uniform, or a team set, and medical insurance for team adult sports is
prohibitively expensive, so you have to be on your own there.
SO please let me know if you plan on attending, and what division you would be interested in playing. WE
have 18+, 25+ and 38+. Also, if you have any other questions I failed to answer here, let me know!

mvps. Kevin notched 7 innings of shut down pitching allowing 1 run, with 8 Ks. Joel Burgos came up 3-4 with 3 RBI and 2 runs scored.
Jay Zerquera rescued us in the 6th inning after our starting Catcher had some dehydration dizziness. 39 year old Jay Z strapped on the
the
gear to catch the final innings in the sweltering heat. Team Captain Wendell Perez and Mgr Ricky Klotter were proud of the guys on this
playoff run. Finally, the
Phillies dynasty continued their dominant reign in the 38+ division with a 2-1 victory over the Blazers. The Phillies won the Spring 2017
Championship behind the right arm of Scott Budds who fanned 14 Blazers in a tight 2-1 win. Budds pitched the complete game and
finished the year 9-0 with a 1.25 ERA and 101 strikeouts. Matt Butler had a huge RBI single in the 2nd and finished the day 2-3. Barrett
Gugliotta also added a pair of hits finishing 2-4. Budds had the game winning RBI walk in the 4th to give the Phillies the lead for good.
He topped it all off striking out the side in the 9th to finish it. Awesome year Phillies! Big props to both our Pitchers and defense. When
you finish the year with a team ERA of 2.05 you will be in position to win a lot of games.

Orlando Rangers back to a title defense yet again for what has to be now described as a dynasty team
in Central Florida amateur baseball. The upstart Twins will attempt to deny the coronation at
12:30 Sunday June 25th at Edgewater High School after upsetting the Angels.
Wendell Perez, who must have been very well-coached in high school, had 2 hits and 1 RBI and 2 Runs Scored and got a bases loaded
save in the 9th. Joel Burgos had a base clearing double with 2 RBI. And despite the 100 degree weather 39 year old Jay Zerquera caught

January 10, 2017 - Spring Baseball 2017 We are ready to get going, hope you are ready to play some baseball! We will play 16 games this
spring, from the 2nd week in February through the beginning of June. Playoffs are concluded before
the end of June, except in the event of an extended bad weather season. All of our games are on
Sundays at various fields around metropolitan Orlando. We have a number of teams looking for
players, and we are usually able to accommodate all levels of skill. We keep our rosters small, which
ensures a lot of playing time. We also offer extended batting lineups and open defensive
substitutions, which allows us to include most everyone, without compromising the competitive
nature of the games.
The registration and draft will be spread out over two dates. Those interested and qualified to play age
18 and over will need to report to South Orange Youth Baseball Complex at 9 AM next Sunday the
15th. (Directions from your location available on the tab on the left.) For those interested in the age
25+ and 38+ divisions, the date will be the following Sunday, the 22nd. You will register, then stretch
and warm up for a light workout at 10 AM. We should be able to get you worked out and on a team
before noon, for those interested in being home in time for the football game. By "light workout", we
mean a quick IF/OF, pitchers and catchers throwing a bit, and a few cuts on the field. There are cages if
you want extra swings on your own. We are also aware that you may not have been playing for a while,
so nobody is looking for 100%, just dial it back, take it easy, the primary purpose is to make sure we
have relatively equal distribution of talent, positions, speed, etc. Nothing to pull a muscle about.
League dues are $180 this spring. This covers fields, 2 umpires per game (high school certified or
better), baseballs, liability insurance (not medical), playoffs, booking agent, website, awards, and
more, not to mention the camaraderie of playing this great game with a bunch of guys with similar
passion for baseball in the longest tenured league in Central Florida. You can pay by check or money
order sent to Central Fla. Men`s Senior Baseball League (CFL MSBL), PO Box 4025, Apopka, FL 32704,
or if you`re still strapped from the holidays, you can use a credit card with the PayPal button on the
left. Please include an extra $7. 50 if you choose that option. We even have the option of spreading
out payments over time without interest, through PayPal. (not the league! :) You don`t have to pay to
work out, (it would be nice and really helpful!), but you will greatly enhance your draft status if you do,
as everybody is looking for paid players. The league rule is "no pay, no play", and rosters will close by
the end of the month.
SO, pre-register by letting me know to expect you for the draft. (blevinsknows@hotmail.com) We look
forward to having you in the league, and please don`t hesitate to let me know if you have any
questions.
