Season schedule
edit
On May 28, the season began when the Hawaiian teams hosted two three-game inter-league series against the Baseball Challenge League of Japan. On May 30, the California teams played inter-league games against the Freedom Pro Baseball League in Arizona to open play.
In early July, the Admirals announced they would not be traveling to Hawaii, due to traveling costs and other financial issues. On July 6, the East Bay Lumberjacks were admitted as full members into the Pacific Association which included a second trip to Hawaii, replacing the Admirals.[2] On July 12, the Pacific Association suspended the Admirals’ operations due to further financial issues. After a change in ownership, the Admirals resumed play 11 days later.
On July 30, both Hawaiian teams flew to Japan to play six inter-league games, one-game against each of the Baseball Challenge League teams.
In late July, only the Prescott Montezuma Federals of the Freedom League fulfilled their inter-league trip to California. The Freedom League announced the other remaining clubs were not able to travel due to financial problems, once again causing further scheduling issues. The Santa Rosa Rose Buds, who were guests of the Pacific Association and the recently admitted East Bay Lumberjacks filled the vacant schedule that the Freedom League created.
On August 13, the Lumberjacks rebranded to the Bay Cal Lumberjacks.[3]
On August 15, the Hawaiian teams flew to California for the inaugural Pacific Association playoffs.
Both Hawaii teams, the Stars and the Warriors, ceased operations after playing the 2013 season citing high travel costs of bringing in opponents from Northern California. The East Bay Lumberjacks also did not return for a second season.
