Olde Tymers Softball of Delmarva

With Fall Ball ending on October 27th, the OTS players jumped right into Winter Ball starting on November 1st. 

For those of you new to Winter Ball, here’s how it works:

Winter Ball generally starts at 10:30 a.m. with batting practice and is followed by a pick-up game if there are enough players. It is generally held when the temperature is expected to get over 50° and the fields are playable. Starting times and days played will vary depending on the weather. An email will be sent out at least the day before a Winter Ball session.

There is a separate Winter Ball Email Distribution list. If you received the email about the first Winter Ball session held on November 1st, you're on that distribution list. If not, and you want to be added to the list, click here and send the email. 

The Fall Ball season has begun. You can download the schedule by clicking on the Handout below.

Congratulations to Manager Steve Carey, Assistant Manager Mike Krieg and all the players on the Atlantic Orthopaedics team.

With their 12 - 0 victory over Diamond Blade Tileworks last Thursday, they wrapped up first place for the 2016 season.

From Mike Fleetwood:  

Yesterday, I appeared for my follow-up visitation for back surgery with Dr. Bydon. I must tell you, I have had two surgeries since August 8, 2013 with Dr. Bydon as my spine surgeon. The 1st surgery was August 8, 2013, fusing C 2,3,4 5, and 6, two titanium rods and 10 screws. The 2nd was 9/17/15, fusing L4, L5, and S1, with two titanium rods and 6 screws. Both were done perfectly with no problems.

Dr. Bydon is the Spine Surgeon Messiah in my opinion. I am nearly 68 years of age, in excellent health, and I have played World and National Senior Softball tournament play. If not for Dr. Bydon, I probably would be paralyzed now. I have recommended him to friends, family, and our league (164 players), if they or friends/family have spine issues, they need to contact him. He is without a doubt one of the best spine surgeons in the world. In addition, his bedside manner is second to nobody.

I have so much respect for him. I just wanted you to know my thoughts about Dr. Bydon. Johns Hopkins Hospital is so fortunate to have him.
