As it turned out, I don't have to take a full break like I was staring down last night, although I am still working with a scaled-back operation here and facing a mountain of energy-draining issues. I have news that's just too good to not share right away.
The Elrosa Saints amateur baseball team is 3-0 after picking up two big Stearns County League wins this weekend. On Saturday at Spring Hill, the Saints won 9-7 in a 12-inning marathon. Payton VanBeck started, and Ethan Vogt closed to pick up the win (IP-5 2/3).
On Sunday at Lake Henry, the Saints won 15-5 with Wyatt Steffensen picking up the pitching win in seven innings of work. Riley Meyer closed, and the Saints had 14 hits to 12 by the hosts.
Next: the Saints host Farming on Saturday night this weekend at 7:30 p.m. On Sunday, Elrosa travels to Roscoe for a 1:30 p.m. game to conclude their Memorial Day weekend SCL contests.
