Played, and never recorded in public
Nine hundred players across sixty-plus clubs play from mid-April to September at one complex. No game result appears anywhere on the site.
That is several thousand games a season on major league replica fields, leaving no public trace. On High Cheese a final entered once becomes the box score, the standings line and the season record together, so a Thursday afternoon 70+ game and a Sunday night 18+ game both survive past the week they were played.
