Look, Ma, No Gloves!

John Westermayer and Rich Kaczmarski of the Bucketheads took fourth in the 34th Annual No Gloves in 2002. Licorice jumped on the Miller 45’s to take the tournament trophy by winning 7-1. Brothers Randy and Bobby Ross both were awarded the Most Valuable Player Award; both batted over .500 in the tournament. 

Despite the long hours, hot days and heavy rain that fell for four hours, soaking the field, volunteers, park staff and enthusiasts maintained the reputation of Forest Park’s excellence in hosting “No Gloves.”
