Long and Castro To Participate In Home Run Derby

0

Ryan Long and Carlos Castro will participate in the 2019 Home Run Derby, representing the Evansville Otters and the Frontier League, the league announced Monday.

In a change of format, the Home Run Derby will take place Tuesday, July 9 in Rockland County, New York. The Frontier League participants will take on the Can-Am League participants. The Rockland Boulders will host the festivities presented by Good Samaritan Hospital. This will mark the first time that these two Independent Professional leagues will face each other.

The Otters are benefitting from two quality bats in their lineup that rank among the top of the Frontier League in power.

Long is not only hitting for a high batting average (.291), but he leads the league in slugging percentage (.530) and is tied for the lead in home runs (nine). The 25-year-old played three seasons at Texas Tech and has spent all his three professional seasons with Evansville.

Castro, meanwhile, is third in the league in slugging percentage (.518) and tied for second in home runs (eight). The first baseman of the Otters is in his second season in Evansville after spending his first six professional years with the Atlanta Braves. Castro is from La Romana, Dominican Republic and signed with Atlanta as an 18-year-old in 2012.

Long and Castro will join River City’s Braxton Martinez and Washington’s Hector Roa as the Frontier League’s representatives in the Home Run Derby.

All-Star events begin with the All-Star Charitable Luncheon featuring New York Yankees’ broadcaster John Sterling on Tuesday, July 9. The Home Run Derby takes place that night and features former New York Yankees and Mets players Mookie Wilson, Jesse Barfield, and John Flaherty.

The Can-Am League vs. Frontier League All-Star Game presented by WMC Health/Good Samaritan Hospital is Wednesday, July 10. For tickets and additional information, please visit http://www.rocklandboulders.com/allstarsummer2019.

Supreme Court Corrects Interim Commercial Court Rules

0

IL for www.theindianalawyer.com

The Indiana Supreme Court has amended its recently adopted interim rules for Indiana Commercial Courts after finding a critical mistake resulting from a missing word.

Interim Rule 4, dealing with the assignment of cases to the commercial court docket, was amended in an order Wednesday after the prefix “non-” was omitted from Section D. The amended rule is corrected to read:

“… (3) if a Refusal Notice is timely filed, the clerk shall transfer and assign the case to the non-Commercial Court Docket of the Commercial Court judge.”

The high court thus amended its May order, adopting the Interim Commercial Court Rules with the appropriate correction. The rules took effect June 1.

Justices announced in May that the commercial court venues in Allen, Elkhart, Floyd, Lake, Marion and Vanderburgh counties would become permanent at the conclusion of a three-year pilot program in those counties.

New Harmony Theatre continues season with Always…Patsy Cline

New Harmony Theatre continues its 32nd summer season with the musical Always…Patsy Cline by Ted Swindley. The play runs July 12-14 and July 18-21 at Murphy Auditorium in historic New Harmony, Indiana.

Their friendship shows us that Patsy Cline’s gift to us was greater than her exquisite voice; it was her wonderful heart. The show’s title was inspired by Cline’s letters to Seger, which were consistently signed “Love ALWAYS… Patsy Cline.”

Single tickets are $35 for an adult, $33 for seniors age 60+, $12 for ages 25 and under, and $31 for USI employees. To purchase tickets or for more information, visit USI.edu/nht or call the box office at 812-465-1635 or 877-648-7469. Read More

“LEFT JAB AND RIGHT JAB” JULY 9, 2019

12

“LEFT JAB AND RIGHT JAB”

“Right Jab And Left Jab” was created because we have two commenters that post on a daily basis either in our “IS IT TRUE” or “Readers Forum” columns concerning National or International issues.
Joe Biden and Ronald Reagan’s comments are mostly about issues of national interest.  The majority of our “IS IT TRUE” columns are about local or state issues, so we have decided to give Mr. Biden and Mr. Reagan exclusive access to our newly created “LEFT JAB and RIGHT JAB”  column. They now have this post to exclusively discuss national or world issues that they feel passionate about.
We shall be posting the “LEFT JAB” AND “RIGHT JAB” several times a week.  Oh, “Left Jab” is a liberal view and the “Right Jab is representative of the more conservative views. Also, any reader who would like to react to the written comments of the two gentlemen is free to do so.

FOOTNOTE: Any comments posted in this column do not represent the views or opinions of the City-County Observer or our advertisers.
