Bridgeport back to their losing ways
8/8/2009
Bridgeport Orators @ Brooklyn Atlantics
--------
GAME 1: LOST 25-14
GAME 2: LOST 24-11
A depleted Orators roster, balanced with injury and some sloppy play resulted in the same ol' result from the Park City Nine. Two straight losses were dealt handily by the Brooklyn side with the O's putting some icing on the cake by blowing an 8-run lead in game 2.
it was the last away game for Bridgeport this year, who will end the season with several games at home. Here's hoping they can even out the uneven record for the year.

Atlantics outlast the O's, contending with poor weather conditions
4/11/09
Bridgeport Orators vs. Brooklyn Atlantics
--------
GAME 1: LOST, 10-12
It wasn't exactly your picturesque baseball opening day setting - pouring rain, wind, and winter temperatures. The Bridgeport and Brooklyn sides played through a tough nine innings and eventually cancelled the second scheduled game.
The Orourkian Raiders (how's that for a new nickname?) played hard and fought well, going blow-for-blow with the Atlantics side all day. Starting CFer Barkeep was sidelined in the early goings with a tweaked hammy, but several Orators rookies picked up the slack. The Atlantics kept charging, but the Park City Nine fought back continuously tying the game. The affair wasn't decided until the very end of the game with the Orators ending it with the tying run in scoring position. Much good in this game, a lot of promise to build on to improve on that horrific showing of the 2008 campaign. Let's hope the team gets to build in better weather conditions though.

Bridgeport drops two against Brooklyn to close season
10/12/08
Bridgeport Orators vs. Brooklyn Atlantics

GAME 1: LOST
GAME 2: LOST
It was the story that's killed the Orators all season. One bad inning in both games leads to a sweep to end the season.

Orators can't stop Atlantics in Hamptons showdown
9/20/08
Bridgeport Orators @ Brooklyn Atlantics
--------
GAME 1, LOST 19-9
GAME 2, LOST 19-7
The Bridgeport Orators took the long trip out to Long Island to face off against their New York counterparts the Brooklyn Atlantics. Playing a scrimmage at a Bridgehampton Historical Society event, the setting was serene and the weather pleasant, though the results left some things to be desired for Bridgeport.
Shaking off early sloppy defense in both games of the 1860's doubleheader, the Orators played seemed to play well overall tightening up on the field and delivering with the bats while trading jabs with the fine gentlemen of the Atlantic club. But, it was no use - the Atlantics bats woke up in the middle of the first game when the Orators were ahead by 4 runs. The barrage of the Atlantics attack didn't stop for the rest of the day, with the team putting up a staggering 38 runs over 18 innings easily stifling any hopes that the O's might stay competitive with the boys from Brooklyn.

Brooklyn's coverage of 7/27 games
Check out the Brooklyn Atlantics recap of this weekend's monsoon bowl here. There is a score discrepancy (they list game one as 16-10 when it was actually 15-10) but other than that it is some fine vintage coverage from the fine vintage lads down in Brooklyn.

Orators outslugged in Brooklyn 'Monsoon Bowl'
7/27/08
Bridgeport Orators at Brooklyn Atlantics
--------
GAME 1, LOST 15-10. 1860's rules
GAME 2, LOST 9-4. 1860's rules
The Orators and Atlantics played through some monsoon-like conditions and actually got in two 9-inning games despite a thunder, lightning and rain-filled Sunday. The Park City Nine showed some life in both games but some Long Island lightning with the lumber created some thundrous offense from Brooklyn that ultimately outdid the O's.

NPR coverage of Vintage Ball
NPR.org today posted an article about Vintage Base Ball. The clip features some photos of the O's from the home opener vs. Brooklyn, as well as a quote from Bridgeport's Own "Cap" Caparosa. Check it out here.

Atlantics recap
The Atlantic BBC have their own recap from our doubleheader last week, here. There's a little discrepency with the scores, but that's understandable - records from the period are spotty at best.
They did get right the fact that Park City is "vastly improved".
