Quebec's Cook Out 4-5 Months
Thursday, August 7th , 2025
The doctors have spoken and Pete Cook of the Quebec Aces didn't like what he heard. The 24-year-old starting pitcher is almost certainly gone for the rest of the year and depending on his progress could miss some of next season as well. Cook sustained his season-ending injury during the Walnut Park Bobcats game yesterday at Belmont Park. He had to leave the game because he hurt himself while throwing a pitch. Today the Quebec medical staff reported Cook had shoulder inflammation and would be absent from the lineup for at least 4-5 months.
On his stats sheet for the year Cook shows a 2-6 record, 10 starts, 64.1 innings, 63 strikeouts and a 4.34 ERA.

Maynard on Fire: 5-for-5 for Palm Springs
Wednesday, August 6th , 2025
A jubilant Mike Maynard joined the postgame press conference at Heat Ballpark to offer some unusual words of encouragement -- for the Orono Oaks pitching staff he had just vanquished.
"It may not have looked like it," said the Palm Springs Heat shortstop, "but I saw some awful good pitches today. If luck hadn't been on my side it might have turned out a lot different."
That would not have been the conclusion of anyone who saw his dominant 5-for-5 hitting performance, which led to the 7-2 Heat win.
"He made it look easy," said Mike Barriga, manager of the Oaks. "We never figured out what to do with him. Obviously."
Mike Maynard singled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, singled in the 6th and hit an RBI double in the 8th.
Currently Maynard is batting .213 with 1 home run and 12 RBIs.
