The Elrosa Saints lost a close battle to New Munich on the home diamond on Sunday to fall back to .500 in the Stearns County League North standings at 6-6 (third).

New Munich and Meire Grove are tied for second place at 7-5, and the Grovers visit Elrosa next Sunday for the last game of the regular season.

If Lake Henry knocks off New Munich next Sunday and the Saints beat the Grovers, it would force a three-way tie for second in the league standings. With New Munich beating Elrosa twice this season, they would hold the tiebreaker in that respect over the Saints, but if the Saints and Grovers end up at 7-6 each it may go to a coin flip to decide who gets the #3 seed.

Speaking of baseball, the Elrosa Saints Legion team hosts Meire Grove tomorrow night at 6:30pm.

The Elrosa Saints Little League team holds fifth place at 5-3 in the 11-team SCL standings.
