MORNING STORM WASHES OUT NOON GAME
After raining cats and dogs, the Bats and Yard Dogs were washed out
 |
An early morning thunderstorm dumped enough rain on the varsity field at Jacobs High School to make it unplayable for the 12:15 pm game between the Bats (4-4) and Yard Dogs (4-3). In the only contest of the season between these two teams the Bats were hoping to maintain their slim half-game lead over the second-place Angels in the Wood Bat Division. No make up date has been set.
The Bats next game is Sunday, July 11 against the Angels (3-4) at Faulkner Field in Gurnee. Game time is 10:00 a.m. Faulkner Field is located next to the American Legion Post #771 at 749 Milwaukee Ave., Gurnee, IL. In a game with playoff implications this will be the third meeting between the Bats and Angels who have split their previous two outings.
