With two games to go before the end of the regular season and injuries starting to pile up, the SweatSox have signed Jack “Mehoff” McLaughlin to a 14-day contract. We were introduced to McLaughlin last week at Southgate, when he approached our bench after the Winchester game looking for information on how to play. Naturally,…
All Shivs Are Shanks, But Not All Shanks Are Shivs | SweatSox vs Lumberjacks 1.0 RECAP
KANATA– You and your baseball team were playing against the Lumberjacks the other day… It was another classic SweatSox-Lumberjacks showdown “last night” at Kinsmen, with the SweatSox using a combination of base-path speed, a plethora of hits, and some creative managing shenanigans to walk away with our first W in nearly a month, a 14-10…
The Wobbly Moon | SweatSox vs Winchester Heat 3.0 RECAP
SOUTH OTTAWA– Looking for a win to even the season series at 1-1-1, the SweatSox came up empty as we lost 8-4 to the Winchester Heat last night at Southgate.

Russ T. Hughes | SweatSox vs Misfits 3.0 RECAP
GLEBE– Why do the Misfits always select Brewer as their home field, when Kinsmen is far superior in every conceivable way!?! In the rubber match of the 3-game regular season series, it was Beau’s Boys that triumphed over Dorion’s Dummies 9-3, in a game that felt much more lopsided than the final score would indicate….
The Non-Condom Binge | SweatSox vs Heat 2.0 RECAP
WINCHESTER– On August 14, 2014, I, Shaun Keay, got a speeding ticket driving north on Bank Street. That was also the day the SweatSox last lost a baseball game in the town of Winchester, until “last night”.

The Scroll of Destruction | SweatSox vs Misfits RECAP
BREWER– Last night, the SweatSox faced the Misfits for the first time since our infamous L-T-T playoff elimination three years & two seasons ago.
