Kevin Hall, outfielder from Wichita State and the 2011 Anchorage Glacier Pilots, is currently wrapping up his senior year and will be looking forward to the 2012 draft, in which he will likely be chosen. Check out this batting scouting video featuring Hall from last season.

The Western Athletic Conference recently released its Preseason All-Conference team, as decided by the coaches in the conference. Considering the heavy representation of Alaska Baseball League players in that league, and the ABL’s standing as one of the premier summer leagues in the nation, it’s no surprise to see the team peppered with former Alaska [...]

The past two years I have written a sappy New Year’s post full of thank yous and all that jazz, but this year I think I’ll give you all what you come here for and stick with baseball. Let’s look ahead at the 2012 Alaska Baseball League season! I’ll give a brief rundown of where [...]

Tomorrow, when the powers that be announce their pick for the 2011 American League Most Valuable Player, the pressure will be on them to make the right decision and anoint former Anchorage Glacier Pilot Jacoby Ellsbury with one of baseball’s most prestigious honors. The haters gonna hate. He was “only” 5th in the AL in [...]

After having such a fruitful discussion with Rangers blogger Dan Edmonson a while back, I thought I would keep the ball rolling with and ask some other bloggers what they thought about the former Alaska League players employed by their professional teams of interest. Toward that end, I asked David Henderson, avid Cleveland Indians fan [...]

It’s always good to see a familiar face in Alaska and Clay Cederquist certainly is one of them. Clay was a member of the 2010 Glacier Pilots club and must have loved the experience, because he’s signed on for a second go-around and spent the summer of 2011 with the Anchorage team.

This season of Alaska Baseball League action is entering its final stretch. Within two weeks, all the teams will have shut down for the year, but not before crowning a new ABL champion. The league standings have been shaken up this year, mostly within the last couple weeks, so it’s bound to be an exciting [...]

As I mentioned in today’s Odds & Ends post, this was the fire true AIA home game of the year, and the first ever Alaska Baseball League game held in Chugiak or the Eagle River area. Considering this historic event occurred about 30 minutes from my place, I figured I’d better load up the van [...]

Late night at Klondike Mike’s last night, so I’m running a little slow today, but here’s a lot of stuff going on. I should have wrote this yesterday. But if you guys are last minute like me, here’s some important stuff to check out. I’ll jam this post out before I have to run out [...]

The Alaska Baseball League regular season is now in full swing, with every team having more than a handful of official league games under their belts. With that being said, I’d like to take a break to look at who’s been the hottest teams of the season thus far…and who hasn’t. If all goes well, [...]

Alright baseball fans. I didn’t do one of these last weekend, and I usually do them on Saturday, but here it is Sunday and it’s time to get caught up. Below I’ve got some pretty interesting tidbits of info, all kinds of good stuff that I just couldn’t write 500 words about but wanted to [...]

My scouting report for this game is going to be very brief tonight, as I didn’t get a whole lot of either. You see, I took my three daughters — the oldest five years old, and the youngest two are twins of nearly two — while momma was out running errands, which meant I didn’t [...]

At 10:00 p.m. on Saturday began a game known as the Summer Solstice Showdown, a match between the Miners and Pilots similar to the Goldpanners’ fabled Midnight Sun Game in that it goes past midnight and on in to the next morning. Despite Anchorage’s relatively lower latitude requiring the use of artificial lights to get [...]
