The Ray Polonis Quasi-Memorial Stickball League was created in 2006 to give some old guys something to do. It has since blossomed into a weekly shouting match between players aged 8 to almost-80, former and future professional and college ballplayers, and Ray Polonis himself, who moved one mid-season (hence the "memorial") and moved back another mid-season (hence the "quasi-memorial"). Annual events include the Sam DeFillippo Jr. Opening Day Game, the Tony Kubek All Star Game, and the Jimmy DeFillippo Sr. Championship Game.

2013 San Francisco Giants Day
The Unthinkable Happens in 2017!
It was a cold winter's day (or a hot summer's day, I don't remember). Bats were silenced as Jeff W and Joe K combined to toss the first NO-HITTER in RPQMSL history. Fun was had by half the players that day. We hope it never happens again.
The Bosque Report
The future looks bright for the RPQMSL, as a bidding war seems to be on the horizon over prospect Blake S.
RPQMSL members have already chipped in over $4, while the Boston Red Sox have yet to report what they've come up with.
