And for Riverdale, JV and Varsity Baseball tonight, the Riverdale Varsity team will be pitching

against Darlington starting at 4-30 today. Well, at the call on WRC,

already of that SWAL game, the Chieftains won game off the pace in the conference race with

a couple of games to go after tonight. I asked Coach Kurt Thompson about the team's biggest win so far.

Probably last Friday when we beat Menoral Point 3-2 down at Menoral Point was the big one they were at.

They're in first place. We needed to have that if we had any hopes for

contending for the conference. And I thought, you know, we played really well because that's

really busy week. We had Darlington on Monday and lost the tough one that day, but bounced back

to be fun and more in Tuesday. And then came back to pick up the big win against Point on Friday.

I think so far that's been the big one. I asked Kurt about tonight's opponent, Darlington.

I'll for sure this is a big game. Darlington's surged into the top spot in the conference,

not right now with a 10-2 record in Menoral Point that 9-2, so they're basically tied in.

We're one game behind them, so we're at 8-3. So yeah, this is a huge game. You know, we have

hopes for competing for the conference championship. We need to sum up all this one off tonight.

And what else do you have left to play after tonight's game in the conference?

After tonight, we play Avagran on Thursday at home and Cuba City on Friday at home. So we got

a nice little home stand coming up. So I know the guys are, you know, ready to go and

enthusiasm about it. And it's nice to have this opportunity and we'll see what happens.

We'll present the game tonight at five on FM 100.9 and wrco.com Darlington at Riverdale.

Church League softball opens up tonight at Crosca Park. Eight teams will take part in the league

this year. The opening night schedule East Diamond seven o'clock this evening.

Moscow Assembly of God plays the mission. Richland Baptist Temple one will umpire.

At 8-15, Richland Baptist Temple one will take on St. Mary's and Bosca Bell will umpire.

On the West Diamond, it will be free Methodist against Bethel Lutheran. Richland Baptist Temple

two will umpire. And then the 8-15 game church of the Nazarene plays Richland Baptist Temple two

free Methodist will umpire the game. A quality start is not always a winning start,

even though Colin Rae did well last night, meeting the requirements, allowing three or

fewer runs in six or more innings, the brewers still lost eight six to the pirates.

Colin Rae talked about his outing pitch count got up there this first few innings and was making

some mistakes over the plate and they're put some good swings on them. Just got into some deep

counts to get the pitch count up. But yeah, I felt like we made a good adjustment those last few

innings to kind of get those six in and then Milwaukee made a mad dash comeback falling short.

Jake Bowers delivered his first career Grand Slam as Milwaukee came running back here's

manager Pat Murphy. I love our team, huh? You know, the way they battle. It's a sign of, you know,

you didn't we did a lot of things not so good, but we're an opportunity to win the game.

And obviously you know the color pitched. I think he all the attention on the other two guys.

I think he's uh he stepped up tonight. He pitched great. And I've seen him do this before,

but color was great always taken off. He was in total command. Joe Ross starts tonight's game

between the two teams for the Brewers elsewhere yesterday. It was Atlanta shutting out the Cubs to

nothing. Philadelphia five. The Mets four Colorado five four over San Diego Dodger six San Francisco four

Arizona six five over Cincinnati in the American League Toronto three Baltimore two Tampa Bay five

three over Boston Houston nine Oakland two Cleveland seven nothing over Texas Seattle six Kansas City

two Detroit was a winner six five over Miami and St. Louis, Trophy Angels ten five

Washington of the White Sox post-prone in EMBA playoffs Boston 109 Cleveland 102 Oklahoma City

beat Dallas 100 to 96 from the NHL playoffs Carolina four one over the Rangers and Dallas five one

against Colorado. And the Packers preparing for the next mini camps and there'll be a lot of

competition in camp for the kicking position. Special teams coach Rick Basashi had talked about

the three kickers in camp. You know they're all working every day. So one day with you two next

day we do one next day we do two they'll do one and we flip each week. So they're going against

each other really on a daily basis. And um it's been a good competition. I think they're all getting

better. We were inside for the beginning part. So we've had some inside days and now we've had

I think we've had four days of outside days. So hopefully it'll continue for a while.

That's a look at sports on this Tuesday morning. I'm Phil Ne.
