ORWBL Player Profile: Daivyn Davis

AL sweeps NL as All Star Game returns to Migley
NEW CARLISLE- After rain forced All Star festivities to The Playground Commons in 2019, the All Star Game returned to its usual home of Migley Field. With the wind howling straight in, runs were extremely hard to come by from start to finish. After managing their respective teams to the World Series last year, Koby Keck (Newts-NL) and Alex Friedman (Magic-AL) managed their respective teams. Unfortunately the Granger Panthers players were not able to make it as they were busy

Panthers win streak at 15 after sweep of Billy Goats
GRANGER- Fresh off of an HD Classic championship win, the Granger Panthers hosted their cross town rival Twin Branch Billy Goats at Snead Field. Earlier in the week the Panthers shocked the wiffleball world as they traded long time Panther Tyler Serosynski to the Goats. Tiki has established himself as a solid wiffleball player on both sides so Twin Branch has to be feeling great about that trade. The trade definitely added a little extra flare to what was going to be an alre

(Article was written prior to the start of Week 5.) -Early on in the season, New Carlisle Newt and former Cult West star Scott Soos r
Panthers half way to perfection
GRANGER- The Granger Panthers are half way home as their pursuit of perfection will surely be a big storyline to follow in the 2nd half of the season. The Panthers are looking to join an exclusive club as the LaPorte Sox are the only team in ORWBL history to have a perfect regular season, doing so in 2008. It is no secret that the Panthers have been absolutely dominant so far this season. They are outscoring their opponents 155-40 which is just absolutely ridiculous if you th
