Well last week, I broke down pitching for the 2010 APBA Baseball Card set and a few days ago I did a similar article on fielding. It is time to look at hitting. I have to admit this was a lot more complicated and even more fun (offense always is). …
A few days ago, I delved into the pitchers of the 2010 APBA baseball season, breaking them down by the numbers. Today for our next installment of “2010 by the numbers”, we’ll switch gears and take a look at fielding. Some surprises maybe only because I haven’t looked at them…
From APBA Baseball’s Facebook page: A shout out to my old buddy Dom who played APBA Nation’s version of Paul Revere. Indeed, confirmed over at the Between the Lines forum, the cards are out and shipping. They are also available for pickup if you are in the area of the…
Let’s give Walt Taylor from OAPBA a hand. He’s halfway through his solitaire 1960’s Project and needs a little help picking out the All-Stars. I’ll let him tell you about it in his own words: Good Evening! I enjoy stopping by your blog to get information and your perspective on…

Over the holidays, I received an email from Chris W. who is coming back to the game of APBA. He has a good question regarding some of the relatively new changes in the pitching grading. He writes: I’m returning to APBA for the first time in a LONG time! Since…
The APBA Company had a chance to do good for some boys and girls and really came through. It started back when Brian Cavanaugh submitted a league profile to the APBA Blog for the Bridesburg Boys and Girls Club Baseball League and a few days later I wrote a quick…
Every time I see the web presence of an APBA league, I’m impressed for one reason or another. This time it’s the American Baseball League or ABL, for short. If you see their web site, you can see that they’re going for an MLB.com/Baseball Reference feel they’re going for and…
