    June 29, Battle of the Bats Results from Last Week (Week 3)

    It takes so long for the PDF file to get updated that the Derby slips my mind, which is why I'm just now getting around to the Week 3 results. Week 3 was the first week that the Glory participated at home. Around the league, totals were not high. Demarini/Wilson tied with Worth, with 5... [More]

    June 29, Preview of Chinese Taipei Series

    Chinese Taipei is more commonly known as Taiwan. We did not play this team last season. Their only NPF action so far this season is against the Philadelphia Force, going on this weekend. In order to determine how well they did against the Force, I'll first look at the how good Philadelphi... [More]

    June 29, Serrano's Perfect Game Gets Noticed by Local Paper

    The local Chantilly/Fairfax Times, which is a free weekly tossed into driveways around the area, had a tiny blurb on Desi's game last weekend. Here is the story.  I guess it takes perfection to get noticed around here. The game also got a mention on SpySoftball.com and OurSpo... [More]

    June 25, Two Team Canada Pitchers Combine for No-Hitter Against Akron

    Here is the Game Recap. Lauren Bay Regula started the game for Team Canada. She went 4 innings, walked 1 and struck out 8. But for some reason she was replaced at the start of the 5th by Robin Mackin, who gave up no hits herself over 3 innings. It wasn't a perfect game like our ... [More]

    June 22, Serrano Throws First Perfect Game in Glory History, Glory Wins 3-0

    Game recap. NPF website story. Wow, what a horrible night for me to have league games and not be able to see this. Actually, since my games were late, I did manage to see the first two innings, but of course I had no idea what those innings were to mean. Fortunately, my friend Alison... [More]

    June 22, Glory Article in Washington Post Weekend Section

    Yes, I am just now getting around to reading Friday's weekend section. The story mentions that we are the only area team defending a national title.  It also mentions the smaller field at Westfield. There are 2 pictures with the article, but these were taken last year. Augus... [More]

    June 22, Results from Last Night's HR Derby at Westfield

    I arrived a little before six PM, since we were told it was going to start at 6. With Team Venezuela still warming up all around the field, I had a feeling that it might be a little later. The Derby eventually got underway around 6:12 or so, and it was later announced that the start time would... [More]

    June 21, Larquier's Braiding Powers Glory to 8-2 Win

    Game recap. NPF website story. Now what the heck does that headline mean? Read on. I got there extra early, for the Home Run Derby. (I'll do a separate post on that later.) The evening started off very well, because it was the home debut (for me at least - maybe they showed u... [More]

    June 21, Battle of the Bats Results from Last Week

    Sorry about the delay.  Week 2 finally allowed the Glory to get involved, but we didn't have much to show for it. The 4 players who will be hitting throughout the season are Oli, Bures, Moore, and Larquier. Only Larquier, batting for Worth, hit any out last weekend. (Only Angus h... [More]

    Game recap. Glory website story. Sarah Pauly's two innings last night were just a warmup for tonight. She pitched a great game, giving up 1 run on just 5 hits and 2 walks, while striking out 9. Venezuala's started just as they did last night, with leadoff batter Soto getting a... [More]
