The Door County League has been buzzing with activity this summer, as teams across the peninsula jostle for position in a schedule packed with rivalry games and surprise upsets.
One of the most talked‑about moments came when Washington Island’s Matt Foss dove home, eluding the tag of Institute catcher Arthur Hocevar to secure a pivotal run.
Sister Bay entered a much‑anticipated showdown with an unbeaten record, and the team’s offense shone thanks to Spencer Krause, Matt Hecht and a grand slam that capped a 15‑run outing.
Meanwhile, Egg Harbor and Kolberg traded blows, with the Indians outhitting the A’s but committing seven errors that kept the game from slipping away.
Pitchers Tyler Neinas and Trevor Reinhardt proved relentless, holding the Mets to just three hits and striking out ten batters in a dominant display.
Maplewood, on the other hand, has struggled to find its scoring rhythm, managing only two runs over the past three weeks.
The Ports have endured a three‑game skid, yet their bats have not gone silent; CJ Goetz led the charge with four hits, while Drew Tanck added three, and Woody Schartner and Peyton Kuehn contributed two each, the latter launching a home run.
Hall of Fame Plans
The Door County Ball Hall of Fame committee has announced that the next induction ceremony will take place in the spring of 2028, giving the community a chance to honor the sport’s local legends.
Fans can expect a celebration that reflects the league’s rich history, with former players, coaches and contributors being recognized for their impact on the game.
