THERE IS A NEW Bean Yack's Thoughts 6/20
Another weekend and another split for the Upsala Blue Jays. This past Saturday the Jays traveled to Royalton to take on the Riverdogs. Upsala received a great start from Brandon Welinski, but needed a 9th inning run to take down the Dogs 3-2. The Jays were led at the plate by Dustin Biniek and Brady Burggraff. Then on Sunday Nisswa traveled to Upsala. After rain delayed the start, it was the Jays who jumped out early with 2 in the 1st. Then the long ball hurt the home town team as the Lighting connected for 5 round trippers in route to 13-3 win. The loss dropped the Jays to 5-5 in the Victory League West and 8-6 overall.
