Yellowjackets sting

Josh Edwards (shown) notched the only two hits for our baseball Raiders in a 5-1 loss to the Rochester Yellowjackets Saturday in Rochester. CLC also dropped the second game, an extra-inning 5-4 heart-breaker to a quality team. The two teams were tied 2-2 at the end of the seventh inning. Derek Pihlaja and Trey Thompson both notched RBI singles in the eighth to help the Raiders to a 4-2 lead before Ryan Lester of RCTC sealed the game with his RBI single. CLC’s lone run in the first game came off a sacrifice fly from Tyler Lenz. Sunday's scheduled twinbill vs. Minnesota West was postponed and is re-set for 2 p.m. Tuesday at Findorff Field. Division: CLC 0-4. Overall: CLC 4-28. CLC also hosts Ridgewater for a pair at 1 p.m. Wednesday.
