2026-08-02 Rubicon Red Sox at Neosho Rockets (RRL)
Category: Game RecapFor the final game of my personal tripleheader, I finished up in Oakfield and motored down, legally of course, to Neosho to catch a matchup against Rubicon. This was a makeup from the rainout the day before. Rubicon got the scoring started with two outs in the top of the 2nd. The next two batters…

2026-08-02 Thiensville-Mequon Twins at Oakfield Oaks (RRL)
Category: Game RecapPart two of my personal tripleheader took me to Oakfield where the Oaks hosted the Thiensville-Mequon Twins. Oakfield was the last team in the Rock River League to see in 2026. Through eight innings Oaks pitcher, Blaine Whalen, threw shutout ball by scattering 4 hits and issuing two walks. In the ninth, the Twins were…

2026-08-02 Hartland Oilers at West Bend Spirits (LOL)
Category: Game RecapThe game between Hartland and West Bend was part of a personal tripleheader. The goal was to see two teams I haven’t seen this year – West Bend and Oakfield – and then finish up with a late afternoon game between Neosho and Rubicon. Today was a bit of a struggle for Hartland. The bats…

2026-07-30 Verona Cavaliers at Utica Association (HTL)
Category: Game RecapFor this ballgame, it was an opportunity to see Verona play for the first time this season, and still enjoy an evening game with enough sunlight to shoot much of the game. Turns out the strong evening sunlight cast some pretty dark shadows so it took a few more minutes than usual to process all…

Category: Game RecapIn my previous post for the Blue Sox – Bulldogs matchup, I began the writeup with “This was a great ballgame!” Turns out the next day’s Sunday game between the Sauk Prairie Twins and Cazenovia Reds made for an outstanding weekend of baseball. Besides the on field excitement, Cazenovia celebrated Fan Appreciation Day with a…

Three runs scored on three singles, a throwing error, and a fielders choice. In the top of the 4th, the Blue Sox scored two runs when Jackson Sadowski led off with a…

2026-07-23 Sauk Prairie Twins @ Dodgeville Knights (HTL)
Category: Game RecapAll season long, I’ve enjoyed seeing different ballparks, especially those that have a grandstand. Months ago, I came across an early 1900s Dodgeville RPPC (Real-Photo Postcard) of a ballgame in progress. In the photo, it shows a grandstand that looks similar to the present-day grandstands in Dodgeville’s Centennial Park. So, I was looking forward to…

2026-07-22 Janesville Cheese Kings vs. Lake Mills Beach Bums at Johnson Creek (DCL)
Category: Game RecapMost ballgames are played on Saturday and Sunday. The Home Talent League has a Night League that generally plays on Sundays. Besides pro baseball, the collegiate leagues generally play daily, so it was nice to have a Wednesday option to scoot over to Johnson Creek to see the Janesville Cheese Kings take on the Lake…

2026-07-19 Pine Bluff Bluffers @ Wiota Indians (HTL)
Category: Game RecapOn the return side of a weekend getaway to visit friends in Iowa, I planned to see a game further from home in Southwestern Wisconsin. Per recommendation from the Blanchardville coach on Thursday, I took his advice to see a game in Wiota. The game itself had a lopsided outcome, but I was very pleased…

After speaking to the Blanchardville coach, he help solidify my preference to see a game in Wiota. Each of these…
