Rob Wyks has come up with a pretty original idea for an APBA Baseball tournament.
- Date: Sunday, Nov 10, 2019
- Location: 1393 Russell Branch, Leesburg, Va 20175
- Time: 0830
- Cost:20$
It takes place on Veterans Day so each team may pick an extra player as long as he’s an official Veteran of the military.
Rob says:
COLD WAR ERA 1946-1991
The extra player must have been a veteran, in the team franchise and only one on team. Baseball reference has a category page, or you can prove it some other way. The extra player will be kept secret so people do their own research. https://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/Category:Veterans.
Here are the full set of rules for the Veterans Day Tournament on November 10.
My favorite rule for this tourney??? The Beanball rule.
Bean Ball
After a team hits three batters (Hit By Pitch) the pitcher who hit the third batter will be thrown out of the game. Any pitcher who hits a batter after the third HBP will be thrown out of the game.
Great concept for a Veterans Day tournament. If you’re interested, do your homework. There are plenty of great veteran players out there!
Good luck, Rob!!
