The Flames had a great past weekend, advancing to the Region 15C Tournament. That tournament will take place in Watkins, August 2-4 & August 9-11. Farming will be the #2 seed out of the SCL-South, and will face either the Cold Spring Rockies or the Watkins Clippers. Four teams from Region 15C will qualify for the State Amateur Tournament.
On Saturday, Farming used a complete-game gem from Adam Nibaur as they defeated Richmond 2-1. Aaron Nett and Adam Winkels had a hit apiece, with each driving in a run. Owen Sunderman had a double, while Ethan Navratil had Farming’s fourth hit.
Farming 2-4-1
Richmond 1-4-3
On Sunday, Farming stayed home for the seeding game where the Flames lost to St. Martin 7-6. Ethan Navratil was 2-for-5 with a double, and Drew Cramlet went 2-for-4. Will Mergen had a double for the Flames.
From the bump Adam Winkels ran into early trouble, and was relieved by Tylor Schroeder in the 1st. Breyden Einyck came in in the fourth inning, and Ethan pitched the ninth. Breyden took the loss for Farming.
St. Martin 7-11-2
Farming 6-9-2
Congratulations to Dale and the boys for advancing to Regions! No doubt an sizeable contingent of Farming fans will head down County Road 50 on Saturday night and root for this ballclub. See you in Watkins!
