Elrosa Saints pick up another big win (VIDEO)

The Elrosa Saints amateur baseball team has continued to pick up steam as the regular season is nearing the final stretch. In a border battle league game today, the Saints defeated visiting Greenwald 6-2. Their Stearns County League North division record now stands at 4-6, still good for fourth place.

Payton VanBeck started and got the Saints off to a solid start while striking out the side in the top of the first inning. Ashton Dingmann then took over on the mound and tossed the next six innings while giving up four hits, no earned runs with no walks and six strikeouts. Wyatt Steffensen closed with two innings of one-hit relief with no walks and three strikeouts.

Here's action from the top of the 6th inning today against Greenwald:


Next: the Saints host Roscoe on Saturday, July 6 under the lights. The next day, they resume SCL-North action with a trip to New Munich for a 1:30 p.m. contest.

I'm thrilled to say that the church social hosted by the Parishes on the Prairie Catholic churches in Elrosa enjoyed a wonderful turnout today. You can see more on that event in the July 4 issue of the Bonanza Valley Voice newspaper.

More to come.
