If someone has access to the Perfect game WWBA game blogs can they post them. I seemed to remember someone doing that for one of their earlier tournaments

East Cobb Baseball edged Diamond Vision Elite 2-1 in the featured 8:15 pm game at Roger Dean Stadium Thursday night. The defensive battle was played in front of an incredible crowd of scouts and coaches that stayed until the final out.
RHP's Brad Gero (4 innings) and Alex Gonzalez (3 innings) for Diamond Vision and John Magliozzi (5 innings) and Brady Anderson (2 innings) for East Cobb all had prospect stuff and commanded it well. They were supported by numerous outstanding defensive plays by their teammates.
None was better than the diving catch deep in centerfield by East Cobb CF Chavez Clarke off a shot by Diamond Vision EH Tyler Kendall's bat leading off the 5th inning. If that catch happens in the Yankees/Angels game tonight in front of a national audience, it's a ESPN Play of the Day.
East Cobb shortstop Tyler Greene and left fielder Andrew Toles were also impressive on defense.
The top Diamond Vision Elite play of the game was a throw from CF Adrian Talton and tag by C Peyton Walsh on a sliding Clarke to end the top of the 7th inning. Third baseman Scooter Price made numerous fine plays, especially charging the ball, earlier in the game.
Magliozzi, a 2011 prospect from Massachusets, got the win with 5 shutout innings. He was 88-92 mph on his fastball, threw a very nice change up with life and kept the Elite hitters off balance with a big, slow 70 mph curveball.

It's been a pleasure to be able to meet so many posters in person the last couple of days.
Also, I had a primo view of what's probably the play of the tourney thus far. 4-3 game, 2 outs, bottom of 7th, man on third -- straight steal of home (Jackie Robinson style) to tie it up. My view from first base coach's box was really exciting. Never seen that before in person!
Congrats to Landon Hallam of Oklahoma for the theft of the tourney!

Welcome to HSBBW, tricks.
I think that you should just post a link to the blog. Use the URL box at the top of the message area of the reply window. If it's information that requires a subscription, then it's better that you not copy it.
There was a reference once to the baseball gods being pleased or upset by something that happened in a Royals game two years ago. A friend responded, "Please. The baseball gods are not watching the Royals." -- Sam Mellinger, KC Royals writer/blogger
No one else is, either.

That is correct. Your license to access that content from PG does not permit you to reproduce it and display it here. The links won't work unless you subscribe to Crosschecker.

Coach May, I recently had a discussion with an attorney regarding copyright infringement, what is and what is not allowed. My understanding is that it is very complicated. A lot has to do with intent, and I do not think that the poster had ill intent in cutting and pasting the blog.

Fine. I have no dog in the fight. But if Perfect Game is charging for the information and someone paying for it in turn is posting it for non paying viewers to see that sounds like infringement to me.
I am sure the poster meant no harm and was just trying to share information.
