The field remains a showplace, immaculately manicured, flat as a pancake, with the hills on the south side of the Mohawk Valley serving as stunning, leafy green backdrop.

They’re still playing baseball at Veterans Memorial Park in Little Falls, more than three decades after the Little Falls Mets and the New York-Penn League came to town in 1977.

Wooden bats don’t seem to bother Jason Simone, whatever the statistics say.

“I think there is a big difference,” said the Cortland State All-American center fielder and SUNY Athletic Conference Player of the Year. “The bats feel different. Personally, I like wooden bats.”

Rome native Joe Melioris Jr. will head to Phoenix to sign a free agent contract with the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday. The former Rome Catholic star had pitched three games for the Mohawk Valley DiamondDawgs this season, going 1-1, with a 2.25 ERA. Melioris paid one last visit to Veterans Memorial Park in Little Falls Monday and sat in the dugout while the fans gave him a standing ovation to celebrate his accomplishment.

Mohawk Valley Diamond Dawgs pitcher Garrett Baker is the second player from his squad to win an NYCBL weekly award during the 2010 season. Teammate Jason Simone (Cortland State) shared the Eastern Division Player of the Week award last week.
