Welcome
The Spokane Dodgers are an adult men's baseball team located in beautiful
Spokane, Washington.
As members of a national organization called the
Men's Senior Baseball League (MSBL),
we are fortunate to be able to continue playing the game we love, even though most of us are
"over the hill." We play real baseball, not softball. We play on local high school and college
baseball fields. Occasionally we get to play at Avista Stadium, home of the
Spokane Indians
professional baseball team. Feel free to browse our site, and if you would like to find
out how you can join a team, send us an email.
Note: We are not the Club Spokane Dodgers, an independent, select-level travel team
for high school players. If you are looking for the Club Spokane Dodgers website,

Padres Win Fall Championship
Tigers Capture 3rd Straight 35+ Title
Dodgers Win Summer 2011 Championship Nick Hedgecock Throws 2 Complete Games on Final Day
On Sunday August 14, 2011, the Spokane Dodgers and their fans witnessed one of the most impressive pitching
performances in the history of the team (and the league), as Nick Hedgecock pitched 14 innings and won both
the semi final and championship games at Avista Stadium.
Hedgecock pitched a complete game and shut out the Blue Jays in the semi final game Sunday morning. Then,
he followed up with a complete game 2-1 victory over the Padres in the championship game Sunday afternoon.
The Dodgers started the day as long shots to win their 5th Summer Championship since 2004.
They would need to win two games against two formidable opponents - the Blue Jays and the Padres. Both
teams had excellent Summer seasons, featuring great pitching, strong defense and powerful hitting.
However, the Dodgers were optimistic. Having been there before, they used their experience, timely hitting
and an unbelievable pitching performance by Hedgecock to win both games. In the 3rd inning of the Championship
game, Colt Hedden drove in the first run, sending Tyler Trudeau home with a beautiful hook slide to
avoid the tag by the Padres catcher. The following inning, John Cassanego scored the second run for the
Dodgers when he got a base hit and stole second base. Roger Coston drove in the second run with a double to
center field. Hedgecock and the Dodgers defense did the rest, holding the Padres to 1 run.

Baseball Camp
Are you looking for a great baseball camp for your child? I highly recommend
Premier Mitts, Inc., led
by Kenny Eilmes. An infield specialist, he runs the only "infield only" baseball camp east of the
cascades. Kenny and his expert staff take time to break down every aspect of infield play and pay close
attention to the smallest of detail. Kenny is outstanding at teaching the higher level techniques and
fundamentals and providing avenues for players to improve. For more information, visit the
Premier Mitts website.
"Spaceman" Doesn't Disappoint, Rox Win 7-3
9/5/2010 Brockton, Mass. Bill Lee pitched five and one-third innings, giving up two runs, for the
victory on Sunday. Buoyed by a strong start from former major-league hurler Bill Lee, the Brockton Rox
defeated the Worcester Tornadoes, 7-3, in a Can-Am League contest at Campanelli Stadium on Sunday
afternoon.
The 63-year-old Lee (1-0) threw five and one-third innings, limiting Worcester to two runs on five hits
to earn the victory...
It felt good out there. Everything was where I wanted to be, the 14-year big-leaguer said, believed to
be the oldest pitcher to earn a victory in a professional game. I got pulled before I could use all of
my pitches today, Lee added. I was hoping to be able to break out my Juan Marichal screwball."

Grand Forks International (GFI)
The GFI baseball tournament is a very prestigious wood bat tournament which has attracted many
of the top semi-pro teams from North America, including the Seattle Studs, Houston Astros,
Chicago Prairie Gravel, San Diego Stars, New York Storm and Trail Orioles. Each year Canada
sends several college-based teams including the UBC T-Birds (Team Canada).
In 2006, the San Diego Stars won their second GFI championship. The Spokane RiverHawks
were represented by several current and former local college players. In addition,
we were very fortunate to have Bill, Andy and Mike Lee join us for the
tournament. Bill, a 119 game winner in his 14-year major league career with the Boston Red Sox
and Montreal Expos, threw out the first pitch at the opening ceremony, making this
a very special year for us. Bill also pitched 4 masterful innings in game 3 against
Burnaby, giving up only 1 run.
