Christian, husband, dad, coach. These thoughts are my own.
Two wins from two today! The Wheaton baseball team closed out its annual round robin event with a pair of victories on Saturday, taking down Calvin University, 7-4, in the first game before earning another seven-run win over Marian University tonight. Braden Engel (pictured second slide) was 2-2 at the plate, scored two runs, and stole a base in the victory over Calvin, while Jared Kloth earned the win with four strikeouts, conceding just two runs through six frames. Freshman Billy Kessler posted two strong innings of relief, allowing zero hits and runs from the eight batters he faced. Payton McClowry (pictured first slide) went for two hits, two RBI, one run, and a stolen base in the Marian win, and Nate Burden had another excellent showing on the mound, striking out three batters and giving up just one score through seven innings of work. JD Van Hook earned his first save of the season by sitting down a pair of Sabres batters in his 1.2-inning appearance to close out the Saturday sweep. The Thunder will head to Wisconsin for a pair of games next week, as they face Carroll University on Tuesday and Carthage College on Friday before returning to Lee Pfund Stadium to host the Firebirds next Saturday. #LetsRoll
Fun day representing @NeenahHBaseball at the All Star Game and getting a chance to be on the field with AJ and Trevor one more time.
Big news this morning that Amazon is acquiring a minority stake in Diamond Sports Group. The regional sports network filed for bankruptcy last year, putting local media rights for 37 teams across the NBA, MLB, and NHL in jeopardy. Now, customers can watch games on Amazon Prime.
