Elrosa vs. New Munich game updates...
FIRST pitch for the game was at 14:41. On a deep ding that bounced off the outfield fence, a GREAT relay from left fielder Will VanBeck to second baseman Gavin Kampsen gave the Saints the third out to end the top of the first inning. Umpire Dennis Boecker made the call...out at second!

**Through two and a half innings, the Silverstreaks hold a 4-0 lead after getting two two-run homers.
**Through four and a half innings, the Silverstreaks are ahead 5-1.

**With 8 innings complete, New Munich leads 6-1.
