Keeping Score is Fun- Learn how from our Tutorial and download our free score sheet you can copy

We have started a series of “Baseball Tutorials” and the first one is how to keep score. Whether you just want to learn so you can keep score while watching a game (at home or in person) to stay engaged in the game or if you will be scoring your child (or grandchild’s) youth league games, it’s a fairly easy thing to do. Rob Rains explains in a brief video.

As a service to our readers, we are offering FREE downloadable score sheets. Download it, and make copies. CLICK HERE.

We have taken them to a printer and had them bound with a spiral binding to produce a scorebook or just print them out and fold them in your pocket for use at a game. There is a “scoring key” which is important in keeping score in baseball and we include that key on our scoresheet.

Print it out in black and white to save on your ink. Here is the link for the scoresheet: Baseball-Score-Sheet-PDF(1)

Ricky Horton was our guest of honor in 2022 at the Annual Rob Rains’ STLSportsPage.com Spring Training Charity Party It was great to have people back in a safe, outdoor setting at the Homewood Suites. Be sure to find out when our 2023 party will be before you make your plans for Spring Training so you can join the fun!

Photo from the 2020 Baseball Bash:

This may have been the last “party” or large crowd gathering you attended for at least a year if you were there. It was held on March 12, 2020 and just as it was about to start we received word that MLB had cancelled the remainder part of Spring Training– due to the start of the COVID-19 closings. The day the 2020 Baseball Bash was the day of the last Spring Training game. We had a player scheduled and due to “circumstances beyond their control” he could not attend. There was a great, enthusiastic crowd and the fans had a fun time despite what was happening.

For the past several years The Homewood Suites has teamed up with STLSportspage.com to put on a charity event which benefits Rainbows for Kids in St. Louis and Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Palm Beach. The event is free of charge and open to all fans of STLSportsPage.com and any guests staying at the Homewood Suites. Carson Kelly was the guest last year, shown in photo with Mike Trim of WPTV News in West Palm Beach and Rob Rains.

Ponce crowd- Go Cards

The Spring Training Charity Bash features free food and drink as well as a silent auction, but the highlight of the event has always been a player from the St. Louis Cardinals who attends and entertains on a sports panel with Trim and Rains.

Ponce= Trim asking questions

Trim, a Cardinals fan, originally from Hermann, MO is a television anchor and always donates his time to do the panel with Rob Rains of STLSportsPage.com. The photo, above, right is the 2017 event featuring Aledmys Diaz.

After the panel discussion there was a barbecue and the Cardinals fans got to eat hamburgers and hot dogs. Ponce- barbecue The best part of the party is raising money for two great charities. Proceeds from the Baseball Bash are divided between the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Palm Beach and Rainbows for Kids in St. Louis. Tyler Hammond, shown in photo below was a member of Rainbows for Kids when he was a child. He had multiple organ transplants, but was able to participate on the Rainbows for Kids Baseball Team and all the activities designed for families with children in treatment. He has now graduated from college and is a volunteer with the organization. He is shown in the picture with Daniel Ponce de Leon. Ponce with Tyler Plan a trip to Spring Training and join us at the party! Rob Rains interviews Daniel Ponce de Leon at the 2019 Baseball Bash.
