Game 21: The Composer Good In Win.





JW was good again showing why is he the ace of the staff. Changed the lineup around again moving Lando back to leadoff batting struggling Prune Face 2nd and Luke 4th to protect me in the lineup. It seemed to work. We have a chance at finishing May above .500.

Game 22: Grand Master Hits Grand Slam







Yes!, We are finally over .500 1GB behind Ford. T-Birds looked like they were going to come back on us as Kyp started to struggle late, but thanx to a Grand Slam by future Grand Master Jedi Luke Skywalker he put the game out of reach. Kyp set a record for Runs scored, impressive since he's a pitcher. My lineup and defense changes worked. Telling is a great defensive 1B very below avg SS. MC seems to be over matched, so I am still in search of a SS who can hit, but i'll deal with a no hitting defense wizard that can play all 8 positions.

Player / Manger Spotlight #1: Admiral Fox
- excerpt from Admiral Fox: Life & Times 2035
I was born in January 1976 in Lombard, IL. Born and raised a Chicago White Sox fan. In 1994 I joined the U.S. Navy as a cook and was eventually stationed in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba during the Cuban Refugee Situation. On 4th of July 1996, I was on the carrier John C. Stennis after it came to visit Gitmo, while doing training drills of the coast of Cuba a weird looking plane came out of the sky being chased by things that looking like bubbles with wings. These weird looking bubbles now know as TIE Fighters were chasing the most famous ship of all time, the Millennium Falcon. Once the Falcon went past the Stennis, we scrambled our f-14's, at which point the TIE fighters turned their attention on the carrier and the Tomcats. A giant blast came from the sky, which I later learned was from the Star Destroyer Mercy, shot down onto the Stennis instantly talking her out. I was able to jump to safety and armed with just a .45 caliber pistol began in vain to take out the TIE's. The Falcon and the remaining Tomcats circled around and took out the 5 remaining TIE's, but not before losing all but 1 Tomcat. After the battle was over there were 2 survivors, myself and Lt Cdr James Johnson piloting the remaining Tomcat.
The Falcon picked us up after Lt Cdr James Johnson was forced to eject from his F-14 due to loss of fuel and asked if we would like to join them on their journey to free their galaxy from the tyranny of the dreaded Empire. Looking for an adventure I said yes, Lt Cdr James Johnson, never one to back down from a challenge, also agreed. The crew of the Falcon, Lando Calrissian, Chewbacca, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia Organa and two droids C-3PO & R2-D2, said they were chasing a bounty hunter named Boba Fett trying to save their captured friend Han Solo frozen in carbonite.
Still being chased by the Mercy, we returned to their galaxy where upon the arrival on a planet called Sullust, the forced of the Galactic Rebellion launched their X-Wings and capitol ships and took down the Mercy. Lt Cdr Johnson and myself were met by Admiral Ackbar and asked to become his personal assistants. I was award the rank of Lieutenant JG. Admiral Acbar asked myself and James to also train on the B-Wing which they had planned on using in the upcoming battles vs the Empire. I took to piloting the B-Wing with ease.
On September 13th 1996, The Battle Of Endor began. Myself, along with newly promoted Cdr James Johnson, now part of the Blue Squadron, helped take down untold numbers of TIE Fighters and Star Destroyers. I was 1 of 3 fighters that took the final shots that took down the Super Star Destroyer Executor, Darth Vader's personal ship. Blue Squadron consisted of Cdr Merrick Simms as Blue One. Blue Two was Cdr James Johnson. Blue Three was myself. Blue Four was Ibtisam a female Mon Calamarian. Blue Five was Ten Numb of Sullust. Blue Six was Bowman Gavin of Corsucant and Blue Seven was Palso Thern of Corellia. All 7 of us survived the Battle Of Endor.
During the Victory Celebration following the defeat of the Emperor and Darth Vader, I staged a baseball game at Chirpa Field (now known as Fox Field) to celebrate out victory. I am credited with founding baseball on Endor. Cdr James Johnson was a football fan. He liked the Dallas Cowboys and is credited with forming the 1st football league on Endor in the fall of 2003.
In October of 1996, The New Republic decided to set up a base on Endor. We choose the city now known as Rock City. Thats where I met my 1st wife (1997 - 2015) Mara Scott. Mara was just 17 when I had met her and her older brother Sgt Bruno Scott. The 3 of us were inseparable. In mid Janaury of 1997 I found out that Mara was pregnant, we married Valentine's Day of 1997. My Oldest son Brett was born October 3rd 1997. Because of the customs and traditions of Endor and of Mara's family children always take their mother's maiden name as their last name, which is why today Brett Scott is not known as Brett Bremer. (to the reader: more on Brett Scott starting in 2014)
The next several years, I spent time between Rock City and traveling the galaxy fighting the remnants of the Empire. I spent 3 yrs training with Jedi Master Luke Skywalker after he discovered I had some Force powers when I met him over Earth in 1996. As a Jedi I am in no comparison to the greats like Luke, Kyp, Corran Horn. My skills with a lightsaber are enough to keep me alive, so far. My knowledge of the force I am slightly below average. While I can Force throw, I can not bend the will of others nor can I predict future events, although some people in the media think I can since I am the all time winning manger in EBL history. My skills lay in the realm of being a Jedi Lore Keeper with the specialty of history, primarily Universal History.
In January of 2002, I contacted Jim Age & Motti Jenson about creating an Endor Baseball League to start in 2003. During the summer of 2002 we conducted tryouts for any and all people who were interested, We contacted players from Earth's MLB that couldn't make it on big league clubs and were out of options but wanted to get paid to play. In January of 2003 we held our Inaugural Draft in Endor City. (more of Admiral Fox' history over time.)

Game 25: Capitals Give Brandywine A Power Outage





Great game for Baldeira even with all the walks. I had a gut instinct about him today and I also wanted to give JW an extra day of rest and Molly got the job done. I hit my 7th HR.

Game 26: Telling Error All The Difference







The Telling error opened up the game for Brandywine. Bad thing it was at 1B vs SS. JW pitched ok. The Power have a great lineup, very hard to pitch to.

Game 27: Han Solo Soars As Caps Thrash Power







We had our best offensive game so far with 4 HR and by scoring 16 runs. Durron pitched a good game. I was able to take myself and Luke out of teh game for the 1st time all season to give the backup outfielders a chance to play. We are tied for 1st with Ford, and getting ready to play the deadly Cougars of the NL to see how good or bad we really are. Chewie hit his 1st HR.

Game 28: Capitals De-claw Cougars



Today was teh game I had expected to win and we did. We face Bellias and Olson the next 2 games which will be a true test on how good we are. We have been on a good streak the last 7 games going 6-1. Hindrickson struggled pretty bad in relief which was the only bad spot on this game.

Game 29: Bellias Too Much For Endor City





Bellias is as good as advertised. Although we did get on base, we couldnt get past 2B. Offensively they r great at driving the ball deep. The only question remains is who will play them in the 1st EBL World Series.
