Jim McNally fondly remembered by family and Cape League at Cotuit
Jim McNally, past winner of the Curly Clement Umpire of the Year award, was a longtime friend of the CCBL. He served as an umpire for years before becoming a Deputy Commissioner following his retirement from officiating.
A commemorative engraved brick was unveiled on Lowell Park’s patio in front of over 40 family members and friends. The ceremony was the latest in a series of events over the past year keeping Jim’s memory alive.
