The first game is scheduled to begin at 2:15.

A report mentions a Springfield fence debacle and a brute force incident allegedly destroying 0 yards of fencing in seven minutes. Adirondack sawmills are courting BI for turning the damaged forest into kindling. Eastern league papers still reference Scranton among clubs with farmed players, noting miners’ contracts and signatures.

Analysts foresee a tough financial year for baseball, though exceptions like Boston and Cincinnati are expected to prosper, with New York also anticipated to perform well.
