Let's go see the Hillsboro Hops play the obnoxiously polite
Vancouver Canadians on June 27 (a Saturday! at 5!) for Star Wars night! I also posted this on Discord. Let your hatred of all things canuck flow like New Hampshire maple syrup and tell me how many tickets you want!

We would be remiss if we didn't mark the recent passing of an OG Hosfordian, Paul Eugene Croghan. His softball career was cut short by injuries, but his spirit lives on as does this game that he was a big part of. Here is his baseball card from the original batch. Players pass through, some short and some long, but the game remembers.

For those not hipped to it, there will be a pickup game at Bloomington on Saturday after the ASS championship game. Probably around 1PM, metal bats.

Long weekend ball at the G!

Sad news. A pillar of early Hosford, Jerry Ostrem, has passed on to the green ballfield in the sky.
John Henry Bourke let us know.

“Hosfordians. Sad news Jerry Ostrem (Zach’s dad) died today. He was one of the earliest players to play at the old school, and the first to only use a wood bat. One of the sweetest curmudgeons to grace the field. Wear a cardigan in his honor.”

It’s been a while since he graced the Hallowed Grounds, but those who got to play with him, he is remebered. Jerry loved the game and he was a good guy. Our condolences to Zachary Ostrem and family.
