State Legion Baseball Tournament Round- UP 8/4

The second day of the State Legion Class B state baseball tournament took place yesterday with four games going on.

The two elimination games Big Stone beat Tabor 8-7 to stay alive and Beresford defeated Dell Rapids 5-1. 

In the winners bracket Humboldt defeated Redfield 3-2 to move on in the winners bracket. 

Meanwhile, Winner Colome legion fell to the host city Lennox 5-1.

In today’s games Redfield will be facing Beresford on the losers side of the bracket. That game will start at 12:30 PM. 

The Winner/ Colome Legion game will start 30 minutes after the conclusion after that game and will face Big Stone to try and keep their season alive. 

Finally, Lennox will face off against Humboldt in the winners bracket. That game is scheduled for 6 PM. 

Preview:

Winner/ Colome is now 1-1 in the tournament is going to need the bats to come alive against Big Stone. Winner/ Colome had opportunities late against LEnnox but wasn’t able to plate more than one run. They will need to capitalize against Big Stone to help keep their season alive. Big Stone is going to need their pitching to step up after allowing 7 runs in each of the first two games. They will need to control the WInner/ Colome lineup much like Lennox did to move on. Both teams are ready to fight for their season here this afternoon and should be a good battle.
