News & notes

 Shaker grad Jeff Hoffman will be on the hill this afternoon when the Cincinnati Reds host the Mets in the rubber game of a three game series. First pitch in 12:35 pm. Hoffman has been activated from the injured list for today's game. I don't know if Hoffman'd faced the Mets when he was with Colorado. Probably did.
==================================
The Troy Fighting Irish braved the rain, and remained undefeated Saturday night in beating Charlotte, out of the Rochester area, 23-6, in Watervliet. The Irish (5-0 overall) need a public relations department yesterday.
==================================
Pete Incaviglia and the Tri-City Valleycats need to figure a way to shut down the Sussex County Miners.

Sussex County blew away the 'Cats, 14-1 on Tuesday in the opener of a three game series. Every time the 'Cats get close to .500, something like this happens.


==========================================
A similar fate befell the Albany Dutchmen, who were drubbed, 15-2, in Saugerties Tuesday night. Time is running out for the Dutch if they want to make the postseason with a week to go in the regular season.
============================================
Since leaving the Albany Times-Union to work for NYRA, handicapper Anthony Stabile has appeared on NYRA pre-card broadcasts with Andy Serling, and, gosh, doesn't he sound a little like the late Billy Fuccillo, or what? Just sayin'.
