SET-UP FOR THE SLAMMER ANGELS LOCKED-IN AT SAN QUENTIN! The Angels play the San Quentin Giants on Wednesday July 2, 4pm, at their yard. The sign-up list was submitted early Friday June 20. |

Players
had to clear up their criminal records before volunteering
The open ballfield in the yard has been fixed up with the help of a donation from the musical group Metallica, and is in good condition. Right field is pretty short (280?) with a short fence. Visiting teams take practice until the home team shows up. Every once in a while a siren goes off and the other team kneels down, some sort of religious observation. Kneel down too.

The Angels didn't show up with a full team, but players were added from event volunteers. The team lost 9-7.

Wrong place! Wrong team!
to
participate. Following the instructions given by San Quentin baseball director Kent Philpott,
we listed each player's "name as on Driver's License, DL#, Social
security
#, and date of birth. This is to get everyone cleared in. We have never had an
identity theft, no convict sees this info. Please send this to me via email or
fax it to me. The 2nd is a Wednesday, need to be at the gate at 4:15pm. Takes
about 1/2 hour to get in, then we try to play as soon after that as we can. No
blue jeans, uniforms okay any color. No electronics or cameras. Have the guys
watch what they bring in their bags, one time a cop found a pipe. Thank
you for this." Players enter wearing their uniforms. Bags carried in have
to be kept real simple with only one extra piece of clothing. The guards will
remove excess items and store them in plastic bags at the front gate.
