The Super Bowl kicks off Sunday featuring the defending Super Bowl champs, tops-in-the-AFC Kansas City Chiefs against the NFC Champion San Francisco 49ers. The Chiefs (11-6) have been in three of the last four Super Bowls, they won last year’s contest over the Philadelphia Eagles and they beat the 49ers in 2020. The 49ers (12-5) had the better record during the regular season. Two WRCR personalities, well-known for their sports prognostications, weighed in yesterday on which team they thought would win the big game. First, we heard from Ken Mahoney of Mahoney Asset Management…

And then we spoke with Mike Wilson of the Cornell Cooperative Extension…

The Big Game gets underway Sunday at 6:30.

The New York Boulders yesterday finished up game two of their three-game series against the Empire State Grays, which had been suspended Wednesday night after it started raining in the 4th inning. The Boulders had been leading 2-0 when play stopped, but would go on to lose 4-2. Game three followed last night, and in third inning second baseman Tucker Nathans would put the Boulders on the board first…

And that was Marc Ernay with the call on the Boulders Broadcast Network. The Boulders would go on to win, 2-0. The Boulders are in 4th place in the division, 5 ½ games out of first place and three out of a playoff spot with just 15 games left in the season. The Boulders head north to Quebec tonight to face the division-leading Capitales in a four-game series this weekend.

After a 41-minute delay to the start of the game thanks to a surprisingly rain-soaked infield, the New York Boulders played game two of their three-game series against the Empire State Grays last night in Pomona. In the second inning with a man on base, First Baseman Chris Kwitzer would get the Boulders on the board first…

And that was Marc Ernay and Seth Cantor with the call on the Boulders Broadcast Network. But the rain returned, and the game was stopped in the top of the fourth. They’ll pick it up there at 4:30pm today, with the Boulders leading 2-0. Game three of the series will follow. If you can’t make it there, you can catch all the action right here on AM 1700 WRCR.

The New York Boulders opened up a three-game home stand against the Empire State Grays last night in Pomona. The Boulders would strike first with Designated Hitter David Vinsky at the plate in the bottom of the second inning…

And that was Marc Ernay with the call on the Boulders Broadcast Network. The Boulders would go on to win 7-4. The Boulders are just three games out of the third playoff spot in the Eastern Division, behind the Tri-City ValleyCats, the New Jersey Jackals and the Quebec Capitals. Game two of the series is 7pm tonight at Clover Stadium. If you can’t make it there, you can catch all the action right here on AM 1700 WRCR.

Sports history was also made on Friday with the New York Boulders who, for the first time ever, against the Ottawa Titans, turned a triple play…

Here’s the English version…

The infield fly was overruled and the triple play stood. That audio courtesy of the FLO Baseball Network, the Ottawa Titans and the Twitter feed of Boulders play-by-play man, Marc Ernay. The Boulders won the first game of Friday’s doubleheader, 10-5, then lost the second game, 6-5. They played another doubleheader Sunday. The Boulders won the first game, 12-10 but lost the second, 1-0. The Boulders are 3½ games out of a playoff spot with just three weeks left in the season. The Boulders have today off.
