Rekindle an old flame
Our bodies tell us that we’re not able to catch, hit, run or throw like we use to in our youth; maybe haven’t played ball in a number of years, but Holy Toledo! in our minds it’s spring and we’re making over-the-head Willie Mays catches, hitting Mickey Mantle-like moonshots–we just need the means of doing it again. Age be damned, it’s time to play ball. We are the Retreads.
Interested in comraderie and competing on the field? If you're game, grab your glove and join us for senior softball.
PLAY BALL!
AGAIN.

RETREADS SPLIT
The Retreads (2-20) split a twin bill with the Lynchburg Legends on Labor Day Monday, and had the fans on the edge of their seats for both games. Game one Charlottesville put up a 10-1 score through the first four innings only to watch Lynchburg close the gap tied at 10-10 in the sixth. The Retreads put up four more runs in the top of the seventh and held off a three-run rally by Lynchburg for a 14-13 Retreads win.
Game two a Retreads rally fell short by a run and losing 12-11; Darren Haden was thrown out at the plate as the potential tying run. However the Retreads still had runners at first and second with just one out, but couldn't bring in the final run. The Retreads have had 10 one run games played this season.
