The JAM

This page is dedicated to the JAM, a softball game played annually in Yonkers, New York, attended by an ever-growing number of friends, acquaintances, business colleagues, and professional athletes.

It has a long history and even greater aspirations, and it's about time it got its just publicity.

The JAM Online Celebrates 1st Anniversary

A lot has happened since July 24, 1998. JAMmers have seemingly disappeared. Haircut appointments have been broken. The JAM was almost knocked off Cook Field for a Little League softball game. And most amazing of all, the Patches have finally won the JAM Cup. And we've been proud to bring it all to you. Thanks go out to the 355 people that have come and visited in the first year of this site's existence, and we hope to be even better for you in Year 2.
