Site: LeLacheur Stadium, Lowell, MA
MVP: Santi Mazzeo, Athletics (MABL)
Date: July 7, 2007

In the MSBL game, the National League, led by Steve Wolf and Russ Ward, outlasted the American League, led by Cesar Romero and Kevin Marden.

Bay State pitchers (Rich Wlodarczyk, Brian Cosentino, Brian Houlding & Mike Vernon) took a no-hitter into the 7th inning until the Santi Mazzeo of the A's broke it up with a single. Still, the game remained 4-0 Bay State going into the bottom of the 8th inning. It was then that the Altantic loaded the bases. Santi Mazzeo came to the plate again. This time, he stroked a 3-RBI double into the gap to make the score 4-3. Santi scored from second when a double-play went unturned to tie the game at 4-4. The White Sox' Mike Pollak scored the go-ahead run later that frame to make the score 5-4 Atlantic.

In the 9th inning with the game on the line for the Bay State, the Tigers' Jon Pollard reached and stole second. With two outs, the Astros' Shu Susaki singled to left. Pollard attempted to score from second, but the Mariners Jeff Rausch hosed JP at the plate on a perfect throw to the White Sox Ivan Clemente to end the game. Jay Wisner of the Cutters picked up the win tossing 2 innings of 1-hit relief.

2006

Score: Bay State 7, Atlantic 5
Site: LeLacheur Stadium, Lowell, MA
MVP: Dan Sweet, Senators
Date: October 1, 2006

The BMBL All-Star Games were initially scheduled July 22, but was rained out and rescheduled after the conclusion of the season. The MABL All-Stars got in 7 innings before the rains shortened the game. The Bay State Stars defeated the Atlantic Stars, 7-5, for their 4th straight win. See the rosters and pictures.

Both MSBL games were rained out. The American League never got to battle the Federal League, nor did the National League rivals get to battle. A seemingly appropriate exclamation point to the rainiest season in memory.

All-Star MVP, Dan Sweet.

Tom Levett runs for ball while Tigers' John Silk is safe at home.
