Named for a season it does not show
The league keeps a Schedule page and a Schedule – Fall 2026 page. Neither carries a fixture — no date, opponent, time or field for any of the four divisions.
Its history page notes that modern technology has revolutionised how the league handles scheduling and score reporting, which makes the empty page more striking rather than less: the scheduling works, it just does not reach anybody outside. High Cheese builds a season in one pass across four divisions, publishes it as text on the league's own page and syncs it to every player's phone.
Houston MSBL/MABL in detail
- Four divisions, two seasons a year, MLB National League rules, and thirty-seven years of it.
- A Standings – Fall 2026 page, and a Spring page behind it, both empty.
- Championship finals are reported; nothing else is.
- Stealth, A's, Roughnecks, Cyclones, Royals, Angels and Gamblers — named only when they win.
- Kept on GameChanger for the tournament, and nowhere for the league.
- An office in Spring, a telephone number, and a promise to answer within 24 to 48 hours.
