- Report v1 →IGH Spartans 13AAA3-18-2 · Inver Grove Heights, MN
IGH Spartans are 3-18-2, outscored 297-165. Pressure their pitching and defense early and relentlessly, but respect the top of their order (Cayto C #2, River M #26, Charlie L #18).
- Report v1 →Lake Elmo 13AAA22-3 · Lake Elmo, MN
Lake Elmo (22-3) is an elite, deep offense hitting roughly .445 as a team with patience and gap power. They rarely chase and punish pitchers who fall behind. All three losses were low-scoring games against velocity arms who pounded the zone (shut out twice). Beat them with strike-one pitching, offspeed when ahead, no-doubles outfield depth, and control of their aggressive run game. A low-scoring game is the Storm's path; a track meet favors Lake Elmo.
