65 CARDINALS-ARACHNIDS DODGE THE RAIN
(Preview)
I have always liked playing at the New Scotland field. Its a hitters field. I like it even more now that significant improvements have been made. An excellent new backstock. Much needed new drainage along the left field fence line. Expanded foul territory in short left. We were fortunate to get the ga...

55 Cubs 13 Pirates 0
(Preview)
The newly renovated New Scotland field with it's expanded foul territory hosted the June 8th contest between New York Cubs and the New York Pirates! A pop-up behind the plate was actually playable and...........caught! - I believe that's a (or an, whatever) historical event at New Scotland. Final...

55 Cubs 5 Americans 3
(Preview)
On a day that had weather, the 'Murikans (GWB) came to the park ready to play. The Cubs came out a wee bit flatish.....like pancake....that got run over by a furniture delivery truck. It weren't pretty but the Cubs hung on to win as Mike LaBarge's guys scored two in the 7th (to make it 5-3) and threatening...

55 Cubs 17 Pirates 4
(Preview)
Loves us some Jim Dalton and crew! Those guys play hard! Cubs just came to the field last night with hitting shoes on! Cubs amassed 20 hits and plated 17. Cubs started Carlos Espada on the mound.

Wayne Nicholsen was the starter for the Arachnids and Jeffrey Whitehead got the call for the Peppers. New Scotland field.

55 PIRATES-TWINS LOCK HORNS 5-21-2026
(Preview)
Both the Twins and Pirates put starters on the hill who pitched the entire game. Wayne. Nicholsen for the home team Twins and Dana Hansen for the Pirates.
