Wow! Saints win in the 10th

The Battle for the Keg lived up to all the hype that it's worth tonight in Elrosa, where the Saints amateur baseball team spilled Spring Hill 2-1 in 10 innings. Brandon Roelike's base hit scored Matt Middendorf for the game-winning run.

Elrosa is 5-3 in the Stearns County League-North division standings and travels to Farming (3-5 SCL-South) on Sunday for a 1:30pm game. Spring Hill slips to 4-5 in the SCL-North and has a long break until the Chargers travel to Roscoe on Sunday, June 30.

In my "tip of the hat" category, congratulations to the Osakis Silverstreaks baseball team, as they won both their state quarterfinal and semifinal contests at the Class A state tournament this week. They now face BOLD out of the West Central South Conference on Monday at Target Field with the state championship on the line.
