Another issue of the Fastpitch Bulletin, circa April 1986.
Front page shows some familiar, albeit more youthful faces of some of the top So Cal players of the day, from Magna Plating and San Bernardino Stars.
Page 15 has a story on the Midland Explorers, with pitchers Peter Finn and Doug Gillis. So, Kyle Beane, how old were you when this story ran?
Page 17 – The Guanella Brothers, with pitchers Steve Padilla and Chuck D’Arcy. (another of the fastpitch fraternity practing law)
Page 21 with a nice pic of umpire Les Novak.
I was 16!! Pinch-running for my Dad’s team and playing baseball…..pretty sure I tried to lead off and was politely reminded it was a different sport.
