Austin Metro Baseball League Goes Wood!
Austin Metro Baseball League is proud to announce that beginning in the 2012 season it will be the first Men's Adult Amateur Baseball League in Texas to go completely wood. The 18+ and 25+ Divisions now join the 35+, 45+ and 55+ Divisions respectively by now making it a complete wood bat baseball league. The 2012 season will be the AMBL's 23rd season! League President Michael Lucas is quoted as saying, "If you want to play real baseball with wood bats on man size fields then play here, otherwise you might find another place to play imitation baseball where they use aluminum bats on tiny fields where they love to post stats". Austin Metro Baseball League remains the largest Men's Adult Amateur Baseball League in Texas!
