A season with its dates published
The Central Ohio Men's Adult Baseball League was founded in 1996, is 18 and over, and is a regional affiliate of MSBL/MABL Inc.
It publishes its whole shape in three sentences: the regular season starts approximately mid-April and runs through early August, league playoffs are a best-of-three series in each round beginning mid-August, and the League Championship Series is held over Labor Day weekend.
Ten clubs play in it: Arlington Tigers, Blazers, Cap City Cubs, Columbus Brewers, Columbus Coyotes, Columbus Mustangs, MSBL, Ohio Bison, Ohio Phillies and Westerville Expos.
High Cheese keeps the schedule, the standings, the stats and the rosters at one address, which for a league already maintaining season and all-time tables is the part that should not depend on one person.
