Thank you!***Local, state and federal law enforcement are now banned from covering their faces in New York State while interacting with the public in most encounters under a new law taking effect today.Bahar Ostadan reports in NEWSDAY that the Making Enforcement Law Transparent Act is part of a push from state Democrats to regulate U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and promote transparency. But Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman — who is the Republican running against Democrat Gov. Kathy Hochul for governor and last year signed an executive order allowing law enforcement to wear masks in Nassau — says the move puts officers at risk."Kathy Hochul is putting our cops in danger just to prove a dumb political point," Blakeman wrote in a statement to Newsday, later adding that masks help protect against people exposing law enforcement officers’ identities online.The mask ban is part of bill package signed by Hochul last month. Among the many changes is a new law prohibiting local law enforcement from partnering with ICE through a federal program known as 287(g). ICE has two such agreements with Nassau, one with its police department and another with its sheriff’s department.Blakeman has until Aug. 27 to terminate Nassau's contracts with ICE, or New York State Attorney General Letitia James says she will pursue legal action."We will seek compliance through the courts," James said in a news conference Wednesday. "I doubt that any municipality would be in contempt of the law at this point and I’m confident that they will comply."The new law bans the use of local law enforcement officials or facilities for immigration enforcement, but allows ICE to continue working with local law enforcement on criminal matters. Unlike the mask restrictions, this measure hasn't taken effect yet.That leaves Blakeman with about nine weeks to void Nassau’s partnership with ICE. Nassau County rents 50 East Meadow jail cells to the federal agency to detain immigrants, and deputized 10 Nassau detectives to help transfer defendants into ICE custody.***These future baseball stars are stealing a summer in “The Hamptons.”Alex Mitchell reports in The NY POST that A-lister sightings, a pipeline to the big leagues, hanging with buds on boats are all guarantees in the Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League which plays its games across America’s most celebrated summer resort community.“My friends are playing in leagues in the middle of nowhere. They’re pretty miserable. But out here it’s awesome,” Seattle-born pitcher Lincoln Oelschlager of the Sag Harbor Whalers told The Post. “It’s probably the best place you’d be for summer ball,” added the pitcher who attends Southern California’s Pomona College.Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League is a Major League Baseball affiliate that provides an east end alternative to Cape Cod’s iconic collegiate summer development league. Like its New England counterpart, the H.C.B.L. has produced a bevy of major leaguers, including Diamondbacks pitcher Corbin Burnes, in addition to 600 MLB-drafted players — 112 of whom stepped onto a diamond in the majors…plus New York Mets radio announcer Keith Raad. The LI league is instrumental in identifying talent that may otherwise be overlooked, Riverhead Tomcats manager Kyle McLaughlin said. “The Cape Cod League is the league where all of the high-end Division I players go, but here, you have more of a mix, you have anywhere from D-I to junior college guys,” he said. “This allows the opportunity for a lot of local Long Island players to kind of get into that same realm as the players that are in the Cape.”The Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League...which has been in existence for nearly 2 decades...is home to six teams, each rooted in the character, history, and natural beauty of the East End communities they represent.The Riverhead Tomcats play on the former Grumman site and take their name from the legendary F-14 Tomcat fighter jet, a nod to Long Island’s aviation history. The Westhampton Aviators honor the 106th Rescue Wing, with the C-130 transport plane featured as part of the team’s logo. The North Fork Ospreys reflect one of the region’s most recognizable birds, often seen nesting across the North Fork. The Sag Harbor Whalers pay homage to Sag Harbor’s historic role as a whaling port, while the Southampton Breakers draw inspiration from the surf and shoreline of Cooper’s Beach, widely recognized as one of the top beaches in the country. The Shelter Island Bucks take their name from the island’s large deer population, a familiar part of life on Shelter Island.The dream teams are all thanks to league president Sandi Kruel, who finds players housing and jobs, such as giving ...
