Jackie Robinson Day is April 15

65 years ago at Ebbett's Field, a ballpark that once stood just across the park from Windsor Terrace, a man changed the game of baseball forever. On April 15, 1947 Jackie Robinson had the courage to become the first African-American man to play in the Major Leagues. Tomorrow we all wear # 42.

Padres Pitch, Hit and Run their Way to Big "W" Against 78 Pct.

The Pods pulled out a great 2-1 "W" against a tough 78 Pct. team on Sunday at Dewey Field. This was a classic Bantam game throughout. The Pods pitched, ran and hit their way to a hard fought victory with help for the best parents in the league.

Padres Fight Hard for First Win of 2014 Campaign

NO WALKS!!!! Yes, no walks given up. The Padres were led by great pitching and a consistent offense. HN came away with a hard fought 4-3 W against 78 Cardello on Saturday at DeMattina Field. Rory got the game ball for his heads up hustle. He stole second, moved to third on a ground out, and stole home on a passed ball. The Friars are back at it tomorrow in Prospect Park at 3 pm.
