#46 LumberKings “steal” BC dynamic duo

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

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.
