Faribault Lakers Baseball- Lonsdale rallies to stun Lakers 12-11

 Today in joking around, I was referring to Lonsdale as Lons Vegas. After tonight's walk off loss to the Aces at Trenda Memorial Park, the Lakers hope that whatever happens in Lons Vegas, stays in Lons Vegas.

It sure started off well enough. A Joey Grote two run double was followed by an Austin Rendler two run home run and it was 4-0 by the time Lonsdale got up to bat.

The Lakers tacked on two more runs in the third before the Aces got on the board on a Ross Beumer two run homer. After the Lakers scored three more runs in the sixth, it looked like the Lakers were in cruise control... not so fast.

Lonsdale scored three runs in the sixth, then four more in the seventh highlighted by a two run Chad Vosejpka home run.

In the eighth another Ross Beumer gave the Aces their first lead of the game with a solo home run to make it 10-9 in favor of the Aces.

The Lakers however took back the lead in the ninth, scoring two runs and having a run thrown out at home plate. That loomed large as Lonsdale used three hits and a walk to tie the game in the ninth and set the stage for a walk off single to deep left center by Beumer. 


Jamie's Deliverymen of the Game

1. Ross Beumer- Lonsdale. The Aces left fielder homered twice, walked twice, scored four times and drove in four runs including the game winning RBI.

2. Austin Rendler- Faribault. Rendler fell a double short of hitting for the cycle. 3-6 for the night with two runs scored and four runs driven in.

3. Jacob White- Lonsdale. White went 3-4 with two runs scored and a run driven in.

Faribault Lakers Baseball: Hastings walks off Lakers 6-5

In a game with several twist and turns, it was a throwing error on a bunt attempt in the last of the ninth that walked off the Lakers on Thursday night in Hastings.  The Hawks got on the board first in the second inning as Johnny Tegland walked with one out and scored on the front end of a two run home run by Cooper DeSutter. In the Lakers fifth, they got on the board without a benefit of a hit. Two Lakers batters reached on walks. Tucker Alstead grounded to shortstop, but a throwing error on the relay to first allowed a run to score. Zander Fitzsimmons followed with the first Lakers hit of the night but Alstead was thrown out trying to reach third base.  Hastings regained their two run lead in the last of the fifth on a Jack Seleski RBI single. Griffin Teodoro grounded into a double play to short circuit the rally. The Press Box chose to play Three Blind Mice. I don't care what level of baseball you're at, you don't play that song to show up the umpires. Just call it one o...
