#46 LumberKings at SoCal Bombers tourney

Tuesday, May 23rd, 2006

Editor’s Note: #46 Bakersfield, CA LumberKings picked up Jeff Wilson for this tournament. Jeff is graduating from the Canadian junior ranks after winning four consecutive junior national championships – two with Jarvis and two with Scarborough. He will be “apprenticing” with The Farm Tavern this year. Lo0ks like a solid weekend for the LumberKings, even though they won only 1 game, they were right in every game against some very stiff ISC competition. With the signing of the Richmond duo Strang and Nimmo, the LumberKings will be a team to watch at the ToC.

For full scores from the tournament, read our sister blog, The Morning Brief.

The “2006 Casa Trejo Palm Springs Classic” got underway Saturday the 20th at Demuth field in beautiful Palm Springs Ca. with a 6 team field that included ISC ranked teams #8 Circle Tap, #13 SoCalBombers, #18 Pueblo Bandits , #20 CR/Portland , #22 Team Rainey and ISCII #46 Bakersfield, CA LumberKings.

#46 LumberKings “steal” BC dynamic duo

Monday, May 15th, 2006

The California LumberKings are happy to announce the signings of pitchers Jon Nimmo and Darren Strang. Jon Nimmo, from Maple Ridge, British Columia, will be playing with us in the Bombers Invitational, Portland Rose Cup and the Tournament of Champions in Kitchener, Ontario. Darren Strang, from Richmond, BC, will be playing for us in the Tournament of Champions. Both Jon and Darren are currently pitching for the Richmond, BC Stealers.

Dave Weldin
Lumberkings, Bakersfield, CA

Editor’s Note: Dave mentioned this to Jim and I about three weeks ago that he had these guys but wanted to wait to announce their signing. Strang pitched Seattle Bodle Chiropractic to 2nd place at the 2004 NAFA AA tournament, dropping the “if” game when he got hurt. Nimmo pitched Lantzville, BC to 3rd at the 2002 NAFA AA, behind Sebringville and Rainey, when he was 19 or 20. I would expect a huge jump in the rankings for the LumberKings up from their current #46.

Scope PWM Steel Dodgers Dig in for Rebound Year

Saturday, May 13th, 2006

From the article appearing in the Lloydminster Meridian Booster, by Larry Fisher:

Friday May 12, 2006
Lloydminster Meridian Booster — The Scope PWM Steel Dodgers fell short of their own expectations in 2005 and with that came the departure of several key players, one thing they didn’t lose, however, is their potential. One of eight teams competing in the Capital City Men’s Fastball League, the Dodgers are banking on a return to their winning ways of 2004 starting with Monday’s season opener in Edmonton. While their off-season was nothing to write home about, with the losses seemingly outweighing the additions to date, they did manage to secure a package deal – bringing back former leadoff man Fred Sirett along with overpowering pitcher Darrel Tilley who will instantly assume the role of ace in the Dodgers starting rotation.

ISC II teams in California Top 10

Friday, May 12th, 2006

Sledghammer22 is providing regular updates for his California Top 10 list. The most recent edition can be found here.

Tied at #3 is ISC II #27 Hayward, CA A-1 Tank and coming in at #5 is ISC II #46 Bakersfield, CA LumberKings. Both teams are set to compete at this year’s ToC.

3 Tied. A-1 Tank– The Tank showed they can compete with the big boys this weekend in Red Rock. They had a key victory over Team USA pitcher Cody Thompson and went 2-1 on Saturday. Ed Gaspar threw a no hitter and was one call away from perfection in game one. They showed a lot of weapons on offense but the key will be the staff. Bringing in the likes of Doug Sleep and Darcy Byrne limited the regular’s time on the hill.

5. Bakersfield Lumberkings– Although they didn’t have the success they wanted in Red Rock, they were in every game. Their losses were 5-4, 7-5 and 7-6 which means they were putting up runs and were competitive. We’re gonna keep our eye on this team to see if they can start pulling out the one run ball games to get them over the top. The big question is still the pitching staff. With ISC aces Sonny Perkins and Grant Patterson doing most of the pitching, when do the regulars get the time?
