Cincinnati CoBALTS Baseball Club

Rumor mill is swirling that "The Monster" will once again wear the #7 Cobalt Uniform.

Thought it worth a quick update on topics/questions that are on many people's minds during this off-season:

* Yes, the CRC has invested in major repairs to the Roselawn Complex...now up to teams using it to keep in top shape.

* Yes, the CRC League has retained the rights to host the NABF Regional Tournament again in 2012.

* Yes, the World Series for NABF has moved to Buffalo, NY (instead of Derby City Louisville).

* Yes,  the AABC World Series has moved to Florida!!!

* Yes, as in some other year's past, there are attempts to create other leagues around the Greater Cincinnati area.

* Yes, they always come back because they find "schemers" cannot fulfill promises.

* Yes, your Cobalts are rebuilding...Better, Stronger, Faster. We have the technology! 

* Yes, Cobalts should get ready for another Road Trip!

Hot, Medium, or Mild Wings......Miller Lite or Bud Light.....Ranch or Blue Cheese.....

All some of the hard decisions your Cobalts faced at this year's Annual Winter Meeting.

The one usual question: "Are the Balt's Players & Coach up for another year?" was already answered. After 48 Natches following last season's final out it was determined that we're comin' back, and hell's comin' with us! (quote: Johnny Mulves)

Good to see Old Timers (even Pudge Mulves & Gilly) and Youngins together during the Holiday Season. We wish all friends, fans, and family a very safe and Merry Christmas. We'll see everyone again in 2012!

Cheers!

After a very strong regular season, the Cobalts' Tournament Plans get cut short after running into two buzz-saw pitchers in the NABF Regional. Both losses come with many "what ifs" and "just one hit away" opportunities that make it a rough way to exit.

So our 25th anniversary season ends without a title celebration...bummer for the boys in blue and gold who put so much into this year's campaign.

We appreciate those who humped it for the Balts this season. We hope to see you back next year.

Cheers!

Cobalts took Game #1 without much sweat against an overmatched Eastbound Down squad in the City Tournament. Shannon Morgan gets the Win and most of the lineup contributed hits and runs in the middle innings.

Then the Cobalts lost another tough 1-run game. This time to Chiefs 3-2. Peterson threw well but took the tough loss as the Balts' new bad habit of leaving runners stranded continues in 2011.
