[Denver, Colorado]
The first two weekends are in the books for the
Inaugural RMFL Travel League. The first weekend of the league was also the first time that Cedar Ridge of Roosevelt,Utah had ever been able to lay a game at home. They have no city league and no other team in the Uinta Basin to play. The Mountain States Rebels traveled to Roosevelt on the 29th and 30th of April for a 4 game set. Cedar Ridge swept the Saturday twin-bill 7-6 and 4-2 with Wes Nielsen getting the first win and his father getting the second.
Dave Parker took the losses in both games for the Rebels. Sunday morning again saw two tight contests as Cedar Ridge again swept the Rebels 8-7 and a 2-1 nailbiter that saw a great throw from behind the plate to throw out a advancing runner at second to end the game. Wes Nielsen and Shawn Nielsen combined for the two Cedar Ridge wins and Dave Parker again shouldered the pitching duties and the two losses for the Rebels. May 14th and 15th saw the Rebels traveling to Laramie,Wyoming for a 4 game set against Brown and Gold Outlet of Laramie. Game 1 saw Dave Parker take the rubber against Casey Campbell of BG. The Rebels shutout the Laramie squad into 6th and preserved the win. Dave Parker took the win with Casey Campbell taking the loss. Game 2 saw the Laramie bats awaken against Dean Parker as they won a 13-3. Sunday morning again had Dave Parker for the Rebels as they cruised to a 6-3 win. Dean Parker took the ball in the second game and took a 6-1 lead into the seventh only to lose 7-6. Next weekend,the Salt Lake City Kings travel to Roosevelt for a 3 game set against the Cedar Ridge fastpitch team on Saturday June 3. This will be Salt Lake’s first time in league play. June 24th and 25th see Roosevelt,Utah traveling to Laramie for a 4 game set while the Rebels will be hosting Universal Athletic from Gillette in Laramie.
Any team interested in either hosting or traveling for a
weekend in the Rocky Mountain area please drop me a note. We have teams willing to come to your park at any time.
