Middlesex Expos, Intercity League
The Middlesex Expos are founded and Managed by Branden Anderson.  The Expos were formerly known as the East Boston Knights for a decade in the Yawkey Baseball League.  The Expos also spent a year in the Yawkey league during the summer of Covid (2020), after their inaugural season in the ICL was short lived when the season was shut down due to concerns of Covid.  The Expos took advantage of that one year in the Yawkey League and came away with a perfect regular season of 14-0, and winning a league championship, only losing 2 games all year long.  Now, the Expos enter the Intercity League with aspirations of continuing winning baseball  at the highest amateur level in Massachusetts.  The Expos come to the ICL led by 2 core veterans who have been part of the franchise for many years and who man the middle infield: Jose Paulino (SS) entering his 10th season, and  Michael Oliveira (2B) entering his 8th season.  The Expos look to hit the ground running in their first season and never look back!

Alibrandis Baseball Club

For nearly three decades, the name “Alibrandi” has been synonymous with winning around the Greater Boston amateur baseball circuit. Founded by David Treska and Michael Powers in 1990 and named after legendary barber Tony Alibrandi (who can still be found cutting hair at his barbershop on Holland St. in Somerville), The Somerville Alibrandis tallied an astonishing 18 League Championships in the last 20 years of play in Boston’s Yawkey Baseball League. In 2018, the core of the team that has won the last eight YBL titles (2010-2017) looks to continue that winning tradition in the Intercity League under the guidance of local legend David Lightbody as the newly formed Alibrandi Baseball Club.

The 2018 Alibrandi roster boasts 8 ex-professional ballplayers, 4 former college All-Americans, and a slew of All-region and All-Conference selections who have been playing together for the better half of the last decade. Despite being the “new kids on the block”, several names on the Alibrandi roster will be familiar to fans of the ICL, including: Bobby Barrett (Testa Corp), Mark Addesa (Testa Corp), Anthony Del Prete (Testa Corp), David Lightbody (Gately/Wakefield), Paul Frisoli (Arlington), Mike Maguire (Cassell Club), and Ted Dziuba (Cassell Club). Mixing in some fresh talent from local universities, this veteran squad will be primed to make a splash in their inaugural ICL campaign.

Trum Field in Somerville, MA has been home to the Alibrandis for years, and will continue to host the Alibrandi Baseball Club in 2018 along with additional home games at Ferullo Field in Woburn, MA.

Alibrandi Nation extends its sincere thanks to the Intercity Baseball League for allowing us to continue our love of this great game in the most competitive atmosphere available.

Bulldogs Founder, John Halsey, has been a fixture on the baseball scene for 20 years and brings 35 years of coaching and organizational expertise from around the country to the franchise. Halsey has committed significant resources to make the Bulldogs a flagship franchise in the Intercity League and a first class organization, The Bulldogs have been fiercely competitive reaching the post season in each year of their existence including a string of four straight semi-final or “final three” appearances through the 2014 season.

As the Bulldogs’ roster fills each season, the players are very excited as they anticipate their summer with the Bulldogs and experiencing high quality baseball on the baseball fields of Greater Boston and the North Shore. The team continues to interview some of the finest current and past collegiate players and seeks those with both a genuine love of the game and a very high level of competitive skill and spirit.

Melrose Americans

After 45 uninterrupted years calling Playstead Park in Medford home, the Americans moved to brand new Morelli Field in Melrose in 2013. Looking to return to the new Morelli Field a team that would bring a top-notch and entertaining brand of baseball that the old Morelli Field hosted when it was the home of the Rams in the 1980’s and 1990’s, the City of Melrose chose the Americans to be that team

Following the 2004 season, the Medford Mustang franchise, a fixture in the Intercity League for 35 years, underwent a name change to Americans. The Americans played their inaugural ICL season during the summer of 2005.

Players earning a place on the Americans’ roster are those who approach and play the game of baseball one way, the American way. Playing the game the American way means that a player is a winner. A winner who is an exceptional teammate, has fun playing the game and who, at all times, respects the game of baseball; running out every grounder to the pitcher and every pop-up, hustling at all times, and being unable to conceive of playing any other way. It means he is a team player who makes a full three month commitment to the Americans and practices as hard as he plays. Americans are expected to show the proper respect to umpires and opponents, as well as to fans in attendance at games, and to represent the Americans positively, both on and off the field.

The Americans’ organization is committed to continuing a tradition of baseball excellence in the city of Melrose, Massachusetts. The Americans’ goal is to win championships and to field a team that year in and year out will continue to make a night watching Intercity League baseball being played on Morelli Field in Melrose, MA a can’t miss event for the many loyal fans who follow the team.

The Americans are also committed to providing select players the opportunity to play top-notch amateur baseball during the summer and challenging those players to improve their skills and baseball intelligence over the course of the Intercity League season.

The owner and manager of the Americans is Kevin Burgoyne, a veteran of twenty-four years as a player in the league and manager of the Medford/Melrose Intercity League franchise since 1994. Orazio Azzarello, who joined the team as a LHP/CF immediately following his final game as captain of the 1995 Medford High School Mustangs, serves as the team’s pitching coach.

Fielding a team in the Intercity League comes at substantial cost. The Americans survive on donations and any and all are greatly appreciated. To discuss sponsorship opportunities, please send an email to americansbaseball@comcast.net

Lexington Blue Sox

The Lexington Blue Sox were founded in 1995 by owner and manager Rick DeAngelis in order to provide high caliber summer baseball for Lexington area fans to enjoy. There is no better way to spend a summer evening than to go out to Blue Sox field at the Center complex and watch the current collegians and former college and pro’s play at the highest level of amateur baseball. The Blue Sox have competed in the Intercity League playoffs in each of their 21 seasons with 11 championships.

The Blue Sox provide a fan friendly environment in historic Lexington, Massachusetts only ten(10) miles West of Boston. Our fans actively support the Blue Sox and consist of multiple generations. Sons and daughters, mothers and fathers and grandparents all enjoy coming out to the ballpark.

The Blue Sox have won eleven Intercity League championships, their first in 1998 by a 4 games to 1 margin in a best of 7 game series vs. The Anthony’s Athletics of Malden. Their second championship came in 2002 when they came back from an 0-2 deficit to win the final 3 games in a best of 5 championship series vs. The Gately Rams of Melrose. The final game in 2002 was an impressive 1-0 victory in which Wes Sparks (Southwestern Oklahoma St.) threw a 1 hitter to seal the championship.

In 2004, the Lexington Blue Sox again captured the Intercity League title. The Blue Sox beat the Lowell Braves by dropping game one of the championship and then winning 3 straight games. Jim Clarke went the distance in game 4 to give the Blue Sox the win.

In 2005 the Lexington Blue Sox captured their first back-to-back title with a 3 games to 1 win over Cassell Club!

In 2011 the Blue Sox captured their fifth straight Intercity League title after winning championships in 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010

In 2013, the Blue Sox were back on the winners podium with a tough 5 game series vs. the Andre Chiefs.

In 2014, the Blue Sox once again reached the finals but lost to Andre.

In 2015, the Blue Sox won the Intercity League Championship vs. the Andre Chiefs 3-0

The goals of the Blue Sox are simple: Winning championships; developing players, and building lifelong friendships among their players, fans, and supporters. Once a player plays for the Blue Sox, he becomes a part of the organization.

The Blue Sox formula for success is straightforward. We combine top notch current college players with experienced former college and professional players. The collegians learn how to play the game from the veterans and the veterans are energized and motivated by the successes of the college players.

“We provide top notch baseball for our fans and we don’t consider any season a success unless we are in contention for the title”, says Blue Sox manager Rick DeAngelis. “As good as the college players are when they arrive in Lexington at the beginning of each summer, they all leave as better players with improved skills and as better young men. There is always a place for a quality baseball player on the Blue Sox roster.

The Inter-City League has brought a tradition of amateur baseball excellence to the Boston area since 1950 by providing college athletes and ex-professionals a competitive summer environment to play ball. This summer’s inaugural Arlington Trojans ICL Team showcases talented, competitive college and amateur baseball players, including many high-profile athletes who will make a big impact on league play from the first inning.

The Arlington Trojans roster will showcase many players from competitive college programs such as Endicott, Gettysburg, Babson, Colby, Suffolk, Southern New Hampshire, Southern Maine, and Assumption. Coach Hart’s goals are to continually field a competitive team, develop his players to compete at the professional level, and to provide a competitive team experience for former professional players who still have the burning desire to compete.

The Trojans’ home park—Summer Street Field in Arlington, is referred to by some as the “pearl of the north shore.” This field has been synonymous with Arlington baseball for years and the Trojans expect to continue this tradition of great baseball under the lights of Summer Street on many warm summer nights to come. As actively-engaged members of the Arlington baseball community, The Trojans will maintain and upgrade the playing field during the season, and provide free clinics for youth players to further motivate kids to pursue the joy of playing baseball.Rosters for all ICL teams are still open.
