Stanley Slammers Fold

The Stanley Slammers have folded and will not compete in the Chipppewa Rivers Baseball League (CRBL) for the 2020 season. The Slammers entered the CRBL in 2012 season under the direction of manager Brandon Geist. During his tenure the slammers were 59-117 and qualified for the Wisconsin Baseball Association (WBA) tournament three times.

Randy Gustafson was the first person I approached when attempting to bring baseball back to Stanley.

The Slammers most successful season came in 2015 when they finished 11-11 and qualifed for the WBA.

Brian Smasal is the number one guy I want to thank. He did a lot for the team and was essentially Mr. Slammer. We did fundraisers to help operate our team and had a lot of support from sponsors and fans. Hopefully it’s not the end for Stanley.

Slammers existed from 2012-2019

A former Stanley team, the Stanley Loggers, occupied the CRBL standings from 1999-2004.

Keith Smasals two grand slams against Cadott in Stanley on fan appreciation night, Randy Gustafson beating Tilden on a game ending triple play and Jeff Trunkel’s walkoff hit against Jim Falls are some of my most memorable moments as Manager of the Slammers.
