The Boston Red Sox may have finally found their ace.

     Since his death Tuesday at age 90, much has been written about Lawrence Peter “Yogi” Berra – Yogi the ballplayer, Yogi the man, Yogi the World War II veteran. Yogi the master of malapropos.

     The current Boston Red Sox roster lists no fewer than eight pitchers from the Cape Cod Baseball League – names such as Matt Barnes, Ryan Cook, Rich Hill, Joe Kelly, Wade Miley, Anthony Varvaro, Brandon Workman and Steven Wright.

     Since Opening Day 2014, 123 former Cape Cod Baseball League players have made their debuts in Major League Baseball. Two of them are named Matt Duffy.

     The Wareham Gatemen have announced the hiring of Jerry Weinstein as their field manager as well as the return of Jim Lawler as pitching coach. Gatemen President Tom Gay and General Manager Andrew Lang made the announcement on Tuesday.

      When University of Kentucky baseball star Andrew Joseph “A.J.” Reed played at Harwich in 2012 and 2013, he was a member of the Mariners’ starting rotation, pitching in a total of 12 games, all starts, and compiling a 4-2 record in his two Cape Cod Baseball League seasons. 

   Philadelphia Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. was fired Thursday, the latest upper management casualty for a team enduring its worst season in 43 years.

     She waited 45 years for it to happen, but Judy Walden Scarafile finally got to watch a game from the Yankee Stadium press box.
