Three dates and an evening start
The published year is short: registration closes April 1, the season begins June 1, and games run into August. The fixtures that appear are 6:00pm starts on a Monday and a Thursday.
An evening first pitch in an Alabama August is a decision about heat rather than convenience, and it is the sort of thing a 60+ division has to get right. No season end, playoff date or full fixture list is published. A High Cheese calendar carries the whole year and subscribes to a player's phone, so a moved Monday at Charger Park finds both clubs.
