League 'Rocks' Expansion News
May 9th 2005, 
GATES, NY--
Sunday Night Softball has announced a new franchise comprised fully of students of the class of 2005 for the 2005 Sunday Night Softball season. The new franchise becomes the league’s third team, and will play at the league's offical field, Chili #4, the home of SNS. The team name of the new ball club has been named "The Rock" depsite SNS veterans like Andrew Reynolds and Matt Williams seeing it as a slap in the face due to the large fan base of the Rochester Knighthawks present in the league.
The Rock are managed and owned by Klein Le who presented the proposal to league officials late Sunday night. Chris Scarbrough, league commissioner, reviewed the proposal carefully and made the decison to award his team a spot in the 2005 season. "Since SNS first came to the Gates Chili region, fans in the senior class have followed the league and asked us when they would have a team of their own. I’m happy to say that day has now arrived,” Scarbrough said early Monday afternoon. "It's a great feeling knowing your league has viewers who can see the potental in the game and want to be apart of it for themselves."
The Rock has submitted the league a preliminary roster which has a few familiar names on it. Last year, Nick Assini and Mike Bell were called up from the minors to play on team GCA for a game when Eric Baetzhold was honorably discharged from the team for the Service. Due to the lockout in the minor leagues (Thursday Mid-morning Softball), team GCA has withdrawn their farm team from the league and has released the two from the organization. "I still cannot believe the turn of events that have occured in the league and it's so sad to say T.M.M.S has gone under," Mike Bell told ESPN Magazine in late March. "I am very upset that management in GCA did not see my future potential and released me. It's going to be great playing against them and showing them what they lost," a heated Nick Assini told SNS Reporters.
Klein Le is another name that rings a bell in the GCA orginization. Back in the summer of 2003, GCA defeated FBS, later to be coached and managed by Klein, 4-1 in the best-of-seven series. "It brings back my glory days of kickball," he said Sunday. "After the kickball series, I was discombobulated on how we lost and I wish to redeem myself and my team this season in a different venue, like the Sunday Night Softball league."
