GAME DAY at STATE! In Mcleod County ...with a rain delay

This is a BIG game day for the Bonanza Valley area as we support the Elrosa Saints and Regal Eagles amateur baseball teams at the Class C state tournament. The state openers are today for both teams in Hutchinson. The games are played at Veterans Memorial Field near the North Fork Crow River.

The Elrosa Saints were supposed to face Windom at 1:30 p.m. Before that, the Regal Eagles were to play at 11 a.m. against the Dumont Saints. However, all of central Minnesota took 2+ inches of rain this morning, so there is a game delay in place. The Regal vs. Dumont game is probably going to start at around noon. This shifts Elrosa's game back to probably a 2:30 p.m. start.

Both games are on 1150 AM in Albany: http://www.mykasm.com. Further updates to follow at this blog post after noon.

I'm slowly getting to extended August Fest coverage. Two videos from August Fest can be found at the "News" collection at the Bonanza Valley Voice newspaper's website: https://www.bonanzavalleyvoice.com/section/news.

UPDATES...

It's 2:08 p.m., and Regal is entering the 9th inning at the plate. The score is 0-0.

Final: Regal 2, Dumont 0 in 11 innings! Crazy.

Elrosa's game started at 3:22 p.m.

After 3 innings, Windom has a 2-1 lead.

After 5 innings, Windom has a 4-2 lead.

Final: Windom 6, Elrosa 2. That's all she wrote.
