The Local 802 softball teams played their hearts out this season. As usual, we competed in the Performing Arts Softball League, which is a 12-team league composed exclusively of Broadway unions and other entertainment professionals in New York City. To get information on playing on one of next year’s teams, e-mail team manager Clint Sharman at Clint@TromboneMan.com. The team’s Web site is www.802softball.com. Photos by Walter Karling.
