Week 6 proves that on any given Sunday...
The 2020 All Star Break is upon us which means that we are getting closer and closer to the playoffs. After a wild Week 6 of ORWBL action things are really starting to heat up in both the American and National League. Let's take a look at the wild weekend that was Week 6. Down goes Granger The La Porte Sox can relax and smoke their cigars as they will not be needing to welcome any team to the undefeated club this season. This Granger squad had absolutely rolled through thei
A look back at the Newts vs. Magic rivalry
LA PORTE-The New Carlisle Newts and Maple City Magic met up on Sunday in a rematch from the 2019 ORWBL World Series. Much like all six World Series games from last year, these games were extremely competitive as two of the games even went to extra innings. For those newer to the league, lets take a little dive into the history between the Newts and Magic. After a few regular season meetings, these two hungry teams met up in the 2013 ORWBL World Series. Both teams were searc
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
Leprechauns showing signs of improvement in 2020 after taking 2 from Hudson Lake
LYNN STREET-It was a battle between long time friends as the Hudson Lake Heat traveled to Rocko's Park to take on the Lynn Street Leprechauns who were riding high after taking 2 of 3 from Twin Branch in Week 4. Although this was a matchup between great friends, there is plenty of storylines surrounding the connections between the two teams. For those new to the league, the Lynn Street Leprechauns came to the rescue in 2016, just 1 day after the Bertrand Bombers franchise fo

Leps surging after series win
TWIN BRANCH- The Lynn Street Leprechauns traveled to Twin Branch to take on the Billy Goats in the lone interleague series of Week 4. The younger Doran Peyton took the mound for the Goats while Nate Hansen was on the hill for Lynn Street. In Game 1, both teams went back and forth up until the top of the 3rd when Lynn Street was able to gain some separation. Already leading 7-6, the Leps popped off for 6 runs in the 3rd as they jumped out to a 13-6 lead as they would not look
Newts take 2 in front of packed house at Migley
NEW CARLISLE - Two of ORWBL's most iconic franchises renewed their historic rivalry on Saturday night, as the New Carlisle Newts (11-1) took two of three from the Rolling Prairie Emery's Army (3-9), 10-13, 25-8, and 12-6. It was a huge crowd and party atmosphere at Migley Field, typical for the series which dates back to 2009. The Newts now lead the all-time series, 36-26. After spending the past three seasons in New Carlisle, Danny Hernandez left for Rolling Prairie this win
Magic sweep Cyclones to move atop the American League
LA PORTE- With 1st place in the American League on the line, the Flat Rock Cyclones traveled to Magic Park to take on the Maple City Magic at newly renovated Magic Park. Also on the line was the golden cane trophy which was created by Shane Anderson after hearing Mark Richards call the Magic old on The ORWBL Live Show. Although Maple City is one of the more experienced teams in the league, Anderson among other Magic players took the comments to heart while also having some go
Meatspins sweep Goats as excitement is brewing in Mishawaka
MISHAWAKA- Excitement is growing quickly in Mishawaka after the Meatspins swept the Twin Branch Billy Goats to improve their record to 5-4. Fueled by the doubters, the Meatspins team proved that they are going to be a force to be reckoned with as a sweep of Twin Branch is no easy task In Game 1, the Spins manufactured 2 runs in the bottom of the 1st and that would be all they needed as Anthony Rieff held the Goats to only 1 run while picking up his 2nd win of the season. Mis
Magic bounce back with sweep of EA
ROLLING PRAIRIE- The Maple City Magic faced off with Rolling Prairie's Emery's Army for the first time in ORWBL play since 2017. While it may not be the biggest rivalry in the sport, there is no denying that these 2 teams have a bit of history together. Let's revisit. Back in 2011, the Maple City Magic had just joined the league in-season as an expansion team, inheriting an 0-9 record left by the Mill Creek Minutemen franchise. The inexperienced Magic team made their ORWBL
