We're at the Field of Dreams on the Jerry Hummich Memorial Field where tonight, Sheboygan South is gonna host their crosstown rival, Sheboygan North. Hello everybody, my name is Mike Martin alongside me as a coach, Chris Wright. Chris, how many years were you at North coaching baseball? A hundred? 30 years, 28 with the varsity and this is two years out now and the big joke around I have is that I got out and now they have all this stuff. We have a nice turf field, new L screens over here. We got a batting cage back behind me and I think they were just waiting for me to get out. That could have been. Let's go through the crew real quick. We got Ron Miller giving you that shot right there. Richard Bartzen is along the first base line. Scott Maloff is our director. There's Richard's shot and in the truck working on graphics is Nate Free. We already mentioned Chris and I. North comes in tonight with a four and four record, three and three in conference, South is one and six, but don't be misled by that one win only. They've been in just about every game they've played. So we could have a good one here tonight, Chris. Yeah, we have a situation where two teams had big victories the other day which could change their season. North lost to Depeer in pretty ugly fashion on Monday and then they go up to Bayport and win that game and then South has lost a lot of close games and comes out and gets a big victory themselves. So maybe those are victories to spring into something. Lars Krugel starts off the game with a strike on the outside corner, batting first for North is Harry Feinberg. Harry is playing out in center field. He's got good speed. Real good speed, Marty. Follows that one straight back. And Lars Krugel is a veteran, senior, multi-athlete. One of South's best. And I'm sure he'll keep the Red Wings in the game. There's a nice shot of Lars on that nice new artificial turf. Another follow straight back. Colin Bennett is the other half of the South Thai battery. He's catching tonight. Rounding out the defense, we have Ben Soik over at first base. Playing second is Colin Mangan. Playing third base is Dylan Tim. Breaking ball a little bit high. And playing over at shortstop is Lancy and Meyer. Out in left field, we have Elliot Pethon. In center field, Trey Klessig. And right field, Jake Leonard. The DH tonight for South is Mason Coller. I can't get that curve ball in. Again, Lars tacking there with fast balls. I would have probably done that. Why bring a three-two count up on your speed guy? But see that one on the outside. Went right over the other batter's boxes line. A three-two count for Krugel. And again, that pitch goes outside. So Feinberg works the walk. That brings up Brent Witter. Witter is going to Evansville after this season, his senior year. He had three hits the other night at Bayport. Four-year starter. Harry, great speed, likes to run. And he's gonna be off and running, I'm sure. Yeah, really. Krugel comes in with a very high ERA, a 10.95. But it's a little misleading. He's only pitched eight innings. It won't take much to get that ERA done. Feinberg running and throw his way off the mark. There's a stolen base for him. You can't walk the lead off the runner. No, you're asking for trouble, you're right. Especially with a kid that can run like a deer. Jacob Nasey is in the on-deck circle. The line drive, the right base hit. Feinberg is being held at third. Making a good play out in the right field was Leonard. But North has a rally going with runners on first and third and Nasey up. Another four-year starter. Yeah, he's going to Parkland Community College. In the notes we have here, he's been dealing with a sore shoulder and you talked to a coach about him prior to the game, what did he say? Well, he said he's got cleared today. Swing is extremely violent. And extremely violent swing. Doesn't get cheated at the plate. He has home run capabilities, especially on a warmer day like today. Just a swing on Monday night, I saw him swing with his inside shoulder and followed him. Play over to first, but Witter gets back in time. Nobody out, runners on first and third for North. You've got to be thinking Witter's going to be going. Absolutely. That evens up the count at one and one. Can I look at that? I gave mine away. One-one pitch. In the hole at Shortnick gets through. Run is in. Witter will hold at second. And now North has runners on first and second and nobody out and a run in. Next up for the Raiders. I just wanted to see if I could pronounce his name. Hunter Steger. Danny Moyer in the house. Right next to you. A block has been called. Runners move up. You missed the meeting the other day. I got a gift from Denny. What's that? I don't know how he kept it in his house for a day or two, but it was a Chicago Cub baseball. It was a giveaway at Sloan Park. Nobody else wanted it. I'm sorry. Get that out of my house. In a minute here, if Denny's going to stick around, he can talk about some of the stuff with the lights over it. Yeah. Lights are all in and ready to go. New deck. They're constructing the deck. I saw that going on the other day. Hunter's just a sophomore. Marty. Got a little experience last year. Playing some varsity. A little bit. I believe his sister is a Maya Steger. She's one of the managers. She helped out in a huge way before the game. The lineups in the book that I'm using. My handwriting is not very good. She did that for us. I'm going to thank Amaya. Hunter, like you said, is a sophomore. He's catching tonight. Runners are on second and third. Witter on third. Nasi on second. Salt in a lot of trouble. Deep drive to left, but it goes foul. Denny, what do you think of this facility? You know, I'm an old geezer. I'm still not so good at turf. I still don't like the DH far as that goes. It really is nice. It's certainly easier to maintenance. I think the most important part is in the spring, especially with the weather. Opportunities to play and practice on a field. Especially in Sheboygan. Another big battle here. A lot of pitches for Krugel in his first inning. Still nobody out. As you know, they have a high school rule where you can only throw up to 100 pitches. That one's right over the plate. That gets by the third baseman. That'll score two. Steger makes a big turn. Back to the bag, but he's in. That's first of the two run single. And North now with three on the board. And still nobody out. At least we got a pretty nice night so far. Hopefully the game doesn't run too long. Bennett Becker is up. No, he's going to be running for the catcher. Oh, courtesy runner. Bennett Becker. Boy, that ball travels fast through the infield. Yeah, you get true hops. So that doesn't hurt. You get true hops. So that part's pretty nice. It's more like the gym when spring. I'll tell you, but once you get it on that turf, it goes. And base hits are more a little more easier. You got these speed-up moves. Just took about 10 minutes to get a pitch ready. Ryan Tross, the next of the best new outfielders. Extremely nice young man. Hard worker plays a lot of baseball before coming to North. All right. Ryan playing out in right field tonight. Yeah, his uncle played for me. Brad. Brad Tross, a really excellent pitcher for us. I think he's teaching on Julian Falls. Yeah, Brad, want to say what a sectional game. Got us to the sectional finals. I remember TV8 followed you guys to stay at up in the apple pit. Brad Beeta, the second ranked team in the state at that time was Fond du Lac and they were loaded and they saved their best pitcher for the second game. Well, we had a young man by the name of Charlie Reschke. I think a grand slam we just held on while pitch there. Really? I put it down as a passball. What do you think, Danny? You could be the deciding both. He scored a few games. Drifts outside. But like I said, Ryan's a really hard worker. Baseball is his game and I expect great things for the next three years from him. Pitch is low. Ross draws a walk. And the inning continues. Three runs in. Runners now on first and second. It's still nobody out. Coming up to bat for north is Ethan Schurg. 23 pitches already. Schurg playing left field tonight. The bouncing ball. The third baseman steps on the bag. Dylan Tim and then he doesn't throw it a first. Probably wanted to make sure. He got made sure of the one out. Yeah. Yeah. Make sure that one. They're going. Good throw down the third, but Salt did not get the call there. I don't. Here's the replay, Marty. Oh, I think he did beat it. That's a good call. Trying to get the glove a little bit in front of the base, I think. Yeah. Slid his hand in there. They're not going to get anything off of this. Maybe they'll come to the monitor for the replay. That's a strange play, Marty. Yeah.  What's the ruling on that? The base umpire can help ask for help from the home plate umpire and he should be looking at the play. It's the only thing I got a problem with and I'm sure that's what Steve goes does is he's way back here at home plate making a call down a third, but he actually did have a better angle at it. So put out a third two to five and as we saw in the replay, it looked like he made the right call initially. Hey, Scott, can we see a replay of that again?  Nice play. I thought his you know what I think his left hand hit the bag first, but then it went off the bag and then he may have tagged on the right hand and of course he would be out. But I think as a coach, you know you want to make your opinions made and then move on. This is taking way too long in my opinion. We didn't get the names of the umpires tonight. Maybe that's a good thing. Well, you know like coach likes to run not a bad situation to run there and but great throw by Colin Brennan and a nice tag and uh James Shearer is uh is up. No, I think it's still Shearer Shearer Why is Shearer He's supposed to be being D-Hed for by Dominguez unless Ohn is D-Hing for Hendrixie. That's what it is.  Well, I think the Shearer's Shearer just batted. Yeah, and he's struck out and that ends the inning. At the end of a half inning a play, Sheboygan North 3, North coming to bat. I'm going to talk to you about physics. Come on in girls. Let's go. This is the first rocket to get humans to Mars. I'm a rocket structural engineer designing and building parts of the rocket. You are the generation that will be stepping foot on Mars. Do I have a group of astronauts on my hand? Yes.  Back at the Field of Dreams where Sheboygan South and I'll take their turn at bat. North coming up with three runs in the top of the first and it could have been a lot worse. South caught a little bit of a break in the middle of the field. Steal where the home plate umpire essentially made the call on the steal at third and called the runner out after the base umpire called him safe. But there you see the North High pitcher, Nathan Hendricksie and he's going to face the leadoff hitter, Elliott Pethon. First pitch is a little bit high. Exactly. Especially with that pitch count you can't afford to. And you got a lead here and one thing he does is get himself in trouble with balls but if he works ahead he can be a very dominant pitcher. Just a bit outside. Alice, he was sending a message with that pitch. I think he misplayed a curve ball. There it is. Swing and a miss. Take solid Pethon. That brings up the third baseman, Dylan Tim. Dylan Tim. That's Jeff Tim. Works in the district. Uncle was a teacher in the district. Ant is a secretary in the district. You are connected Mr. Wright. It's just a little bit outside. Very nice family. Jeff's a dad's a really good guy. There's Steve Tim too over under the tree. Ball hit high, deep to left center field. Feinberg making the nice running catch. Kit can run. Made it look easy actually. Yeah. And I got to be honest with you. It didn't look like he swung hard. It just carried. You're going to see what happens right here. A little bit of a replay. Ball is hit deep. Aw, and we missed the catch. Left to work on that replay machine. The next hitter for south is Ben Soik and he swings through a fast ball. Strike one. Another nice player. Soik is a senior. There's been a few Soik's that have gone through South Eye over the years. Line drive over the glove of Brent Winter a base hit with two outs for the Red Wings. That's going to bring up the pitcher Lars Krugel. Krugel steps in. 333. Those have a double three RBIs. Good athlete. Football, basketball, and baseball ball hit hard but right at Winter. He doesn't even have to move and he makes the catch. And at the end of one complete inning a play in North three saw nothing. Party fouls are pretty dumb.  Underage drinking and driving. The ultimate party foul. We're back at the field of dreams on the Jerry Helmich field and joining us is Denny Moyer. Denny let's talk a little bit about the Sheboygan A's. Number one on the list has to be the lights. We had a chance to watch him at work off of CJ Skelton's phone with the amp he's got on there turning him on and off from Frankie's bar at an A's meeting a couple months ago. Talk a little bit about the lights first. Well the lights are all LEDs and they are very focused. Neighbors will have no problems with them. They hardly know they're on if they're living next door. But they are bright. That really lights up the place. It's just unbelievable. Especially after what we've been going through these last few years. I don't know if I ever told you that story Marty. We were playing in West Alice one night. Let me know what you got. We're going toward dusk. You know, a quarter to nine. Something like that. It's at a county park. That ball drops in fair for the DH on Dominguez and that's going to be a leadoff hit for the Raiders. Dominguez picking a good spot for that ball. The Bermuda triangle. Nobody could get to it. Batting next is number one Nathan Hendricksy. So we're down there in West Alice and the guide doesn't show up. Kruegel does make the play. We get the out at the first base on a sacrifice bunt. OK Denny. So it's getting dark and the guy at one of the employees was supposed to come turn the lights on and he didn't show up. So we're hitting in the dark there in the dusk. We got five runs in the top of the fourth inning. And Steve Elliott, the manager runs the West Alice team. So Evil hit the dark like that. Oh yeah, I remember you played Wildwood Park. Used to playing in the dark. Then we knew it was time to get the lights. In all honesty Denny, I remember umpiring games there and when it got to be dusk and a little later I'd always take a couple steps back if I was the base umpire because it was tough to pick up the ball. You can't see the ball. It got to be really dangerous. You can't do this on a frill. It was definitely needed. So it's there now and we're trying to pay the bills. We've got a new deck going up now. Yeah, that was the other thing I was going to ask you about. On the first base side groups can rent that out for the night. A pick off attempt at second base. The throw hit Dominguez right in the back but he popped right back up looks to be OK. You're going to see it cruel. Making a spin and throw. So a lot of improvements over there. It's the longest short of it. We should also mention a little bit about player personnel. I've been catching some things on Twitter about players being back and I see you have Eric Schmitz back. He acts as a pseudo coach and a pitcher for you. Eric's a good one. He's a right-hander, throws well and comes from Whitewater. He's helping coach North. His workouts in while he's coaching helping coach North. Taylor Schwartz is coming back so he'll help us out. I saw Greg the other day. He said they've been practicing already. He's been throwing so he's a good player. He's a good pitcher. Harry Feinberg is the batter by the way. Let off with a walk in the first inning and scored. Anyone else? He's coming back. Benny Folger is coming back. He's a left-hander. I know about some of those left-hander. He's a good left-hander. A couple others. We've got some good pitchers. John Vanerplugel is going to be with us for a little while. He's playing out east for most of the summer but he'll be with us for a while. He's a spoiled false kid. He throws pretty well. Anybody new? There's some superiors coming down here. I don't know if he's going... We'll just have to see how he goes. And then we've got... We've got three kids this year because of the shift in playing from... I used to go get shifted. We've got three kids going to play with us that are first going to college. Usually we'd like this college class. But I don't know if you know the two Lechner kids from... Kimberly are going to play with us. No, they're going to be with us. Lechner's a pretty good baseball naming. There's been some good players out of them. Those kids can play, I'm told. They're both going to Central Michigan. Okay. Then there's a guy named Logan Veetmeyer who's a catcher at Marietta's Common. He's a pretty good player. And they got a call today from Michigan State. They've got an infielder that lives in Milwaukee that might want to come up. We should be pretty good. We need some of those big 10 players to keep up with Lombard. As a matter of fact, that's how he got a hold of me. He called Lombard first. Jeff says he can't use him. He got no room for him. We get the castoffs. Hey, take him. Feinberg goes down on strikes. That brings up Brent Witter. Witter singled in the first and scored. He's a pretty good clutch player in these kind of situations. This Witter kid is one I'd like to have with us. Right. Pop up. Tim got it for the out, number three. And after an inning and a half, Norr still leads it three to nothing. Denny, before we go to commercial break, talk a little bit about the league setup for you guys. Things have changed in that regard. You'd always play in two leagues the last several years. What is it now? It's still two leagues. We're playing in the Wisconsin State Baseball League, which is easily the best league in the state and probably the Midwest. Good teams in that league. And we're also playing in the Northeastern Wisconsin League. The problem there is we only have four teams in the league, so we're not playing a lot of games. But that's a good league, too. When Ashton Appleton and Green Bay are in there, so they're good teams. So you're still looking at 40, 50 games?  We've got the Chicago team coming in, and we're playing Kiosk them a couple of times. We're talking about entering that Northeastern League, so everybody's trying to play a couple of times to see if they measure up. So it'll be interesting. All right, good. Glad to hear it. When is the first days game? On Memorial Day weekend, that weekend, the Saturday before Memorial Day. There are 5k runners in the morning. Okay, right. The game starts at one o'clock, and then after the game we've got a concert on the field, so it's going to be a big day for us. Weatherman, of course, is going to cooperate. He always does. Oh, right, right, right, right. That's one of your biggest bugaboos over the years. It's been a weatherman. Sometimes it seems like the only place it's raining is at Wildwood Park. I miss the cities in the dry, arid heat, and we got rain at Wildwood Park. But it does make the grass green. Yeah, it sure does. All right, Denny, thanks a lot. I appreciate you visiting with us, and good luck this season. Yeah, thanks, Marty. South is Trey Klessig. Ball is off the wall. One hops the wall, Klessig. Rounding second, he's going to go to third. Throw comes in, and he's going to be safe at third with a triple. Hit that ball hard. Tross not able to make a play on it. There you see him rounding second. Most people don't know out there. Denny Moyer is Mr. Baseball, and there you see Trey. And he's done a lot for Sheboygan Baseball. This is... Purple. Fly ball to center field, and not deep enough to score the runner a third. Number was that? 25. So he's not... Yeah, I know. Everything should be moved down one. No, he's not on the roster. Yeah, that either. That kid's name was Mason Cowher. Up now is Colin Benin, the catcher. Good athlete. He's an excellent wide receiver for the south team. They call the strike on that. I don't know. I was too busy looking at my score book, which is all messed up. This is Colin Brennan. Yes, the catcher. 33. That's a sweet curve. Yeah, that ball is right on the outside corner. Colin has got to put this ball in play. There's just no... You've got to cut your swing down, put it in play. Just like that. There's a ball to third, but Nezzy with a gun at third, throws him out, and then is able to keep the man at third. Plessig. Not a good... Oh, he did put the ball in play. You've got to give him that, Chris, but hit it to the wrong infielder. There you see Colin. Half swing kind of, just putting it in play. Up next for South is Colin Mangan. This would be really a big out here. Lead off triple.  Excuse me, Klessing still standing on third base. Great job by North to... if they can get this last out to avoid allowing a run in. Pitch for a strike. Ball hit hard, but foul straight back. Hope you parked your car out of range. Oh, yeah. Not my first rodeo. Really? It's kind of weird. I always had a spot where I always parked, and my spot's gone. I guess that's part of the deal. Pitch was in the dirt, but... In the turf? In the turf is right. Good play by Norse catcher Hunter Stager. He runs it full here. There we got a full count. He's a good player too. Mangan swung at one. Now it looked high from here, and that ends the inning. No runs for South. At the end of two complete, Norse three, South nothing. Okay, so we drowned the fire, stirred it, drowned it again, and now just feel if it's cold. Yeah. Cool. Hope you just gave me a bear hug. I already posted it. Let me tell you what I make. I make learning a privilege, not a chore. And frustration, a tool, not working hard, seem easy, and giving up impossible. I make an old subject feel like a fresh thought. And unconventional methods, common. I'm a teacher. I make. Knowledge, you can make amazing world. Come with me. My team and I groomed the halo world to life. Is that you? That is me. I wasn't a math genius, and I knew nothing about coding. But you guys do.  I want your job. I want you to have my job. We're back at the Field of Dreams on the Jerry Hummich Field, where Norse leads it. Leading off the inning is Jacob Nazy, and single in a run back in the first inning. Joining us as a color commentator is Nathan Free, a junior at South Eye. No, I'm a senior at South Eye. I heard juniors don't get to do color. Yeah. So what have you been seeing so far here tonight, Nate? Well, I was in the truck, and I didn't get to see a whole lot through the truck. I only got to see through the two cameras, but I saw that triple, though. That was quite a hit by the South Eye kid. Yeah. Well, that was way over his head. Kruegel throws it over Nazy's head back to the screen at Evens Account at one and one. Nazy's going to Parkland Community College. He's got a good throwing arm. Have you seen South play any baseball games this year? Not this year. I have watched some South baseball games in the past two years. Right. Why don't you tell our viewers a little bit what you do with the TV station, because this is the first time you've done any broadcasting.  Yeah, my normal job would be graphics, but, well, Mr. Mailoff, the director, yes, if I could guess Covent Garden, I said, yeah. You know, trying to change it up a little bit. I'm taking the broadcasting class at South Eye. It's a very fun class. I've been doing that since my sophomore year. Is that open to anyone, or do you have to be a certain grade to get... You'd have to be a sophomore, and it looks like that guy's safe. Nazy gets an infield hit, brings up the catcher, Hunter Steger. You don't know too much about those guys. The North kids. Yeah, no. Jody Brooks in the house. This son, Ethan, is on the North Eye team. Line drive right up the middle. Flip over to second for the out, but the turn at... The throw to first is off the mark, so Steger reaches on a fielder's choice. What are you doing next year, Nathan? Oh, man, I honestly really don't have an idea. First, I was originally... I was planning on going to the Northeastern Wisconsin Technical College for broadcasting, but then when I was talking with my parents, I was planning on either going to LTC for one year for my Gen Ed, and then going down to Milwaukee for broadcasting for two. It was either that, for a degree down to Milwaukee, or get a diploma in the same things up in Green Bay. There's a drive deep to left, but that's going to go way full. Good swing of the bat. That time by Ryan Tross. Tross reached on a walk and was thrown out at third on a bit of a controversial play. I don't know if you saw that at all, Nathan. They originally called him safe, and then ended up calling him out. Yeah. You got to give it to these umpires. They're looking at this at the regular speed of the game, and you got to just make... You just got to have your best judgment on that. And then once you make that call, you may have second thoughts. Breaking ball is high. Good throw by Brennan down to second, but... He's safe. Not in time, so give Steger a stolen base. Coach Goals likes to run a lot, and continuing to do that. I actually took a tour of the NWTC a couple of months ago. It's a very nice campus. A lot of it's been remodeled. Is that down in Milwaukee, you said? No, Green Bay. I took tour of the Green Bay one. Yeah, with the Milwaukee Technical College down there, you get a chance to work at the PBS station down there. Good. That'd be a nice... You also have opportunities here in Sheboygan if you went to UW Sheboygan. And work at the station here. That's also a possibility as well. I'm just exercising all my options. Mitch Gardner in the house. Mitch, a former North player, plays with the A's amongst some other teams. I love going to A's games every summer. Yeah, it's a good time for sure. Ball straight back by Tross. 2-2 is the count. Breaking ball again. It's going to get there. Not able to make the scoop was the first baseman, Syke. That'll put runners on second and third, it looks like. Or did that runner on second come around and score? Still 3-0, but I think it went from... Just put the runners on at second and third. The runner on that was on second stager held at third. Yeah. A foul tick by Ethan Schurg. Tross lost his helmet trying to run to second. Got it back. Another swing and a miss. Krugel gets two quick strikes on the left fielder. North. Schurg reached on a fielder's choice. First inning stole second, and that's where he ended up when the inning was done. Pitch rode up high and in, and Schurg couldn't get the bat out of the way. All right, what are you going to throw now? Got no balls and two strikes on the bat, or a bouncing ball to the first baseman? It's going to get the out at first barely, but a run does score. They get three unassisted, and an RBI north now leads four to nothing. Tross moves up to third base. Good to bat that time. Got the ball on the bat on the ball. Got a run in. James Scherer is up the first baseman for North. Great awareness. Cameron Meyer over at short for Salti. Got a nice play behind the bag to get a force out at second. Had a little trouble on a long throw over to first. Just before. The batters falls that one straight back. I might just have to knock on wood here, but I'm thankful I've never been hit by a bat or a ball ever. Really, I think it's a ball of time, Nathan. Now, A's games, Brewer's games. I think it's more special if you're standing in the batter's box and you get plumped. The field here at Fielded Dreams is interesting because about one half of it is like grass. From the infield, what would be the infield dirt towards us behind home plate. That's Ron Miller giving you that shot. That's all artificial turf, even in fall territory. Anything to the outfield side of what would be normally the infield dirt is all grass. And that's how they set it up. I had an opportunity a few years ago, Nathan, to umpire a game at Whitefish Bay, and they basically had the same setup. Infield turf and outfield grass. Another pitch, rides high, and that leads to a walk. We have two outs, runners on first and third. Oh, and Dominguez is up. Dominguez got a blue pit down the right field line his first trip up. Dominguez normally plays second base, and he's short tonight, he's the DH. Ball is high. I think Chris Wright, you know, he coached base ball over at North for 30 years, and he'd have had that guy running on the first pitch. Is that right now? Is that right, Chris? He'd be standing at second. Last pitch was a ball, it's 2-0. He had a good shot. Krugel comes in with a strike, we have to count two balls and one strike. We have two outs, north on top, four to nothing. Nathan Free is a color man now. Chris taken a little bit of a break. Gave him a chance to put his coat on. It is getting a little more chilly out here. Yeah, it was about 60 degrees earlier. Something was shining, it was nice. Now it's just a little gloomy. Rain is rolling in. Hopefully it'll hold off till we're done here this afternoon. And the runner for Nora Shearer was in no hurry to get the second base on the steal attempt. I think what they wanted to do was get in a rundown, but Salt was having none of it. Now we got runners on second and third two outs while it fell down the right field line. So I'm looking at the radar right now and some rain is moving in from Flanda Lack. Yeah, it's getting close, Nathan. We'll have to work hard to get this game in. Another ball hit foul. We have a couple of games left on the schedule. I believe they are the 14th of May and the 21st of May. A couple of Tuesdays coming up. Breviated schedule this year. Only three games. Ball just missed up high. Hopefully we can get a tournament game or two if North or South get a home game. Bouncing ball the third and it goes foul. Good thing for Salt because Dominguez would have beaten that out and the runner at third, Tross, had already crossed the plate. So for now it does save South a run. Yeah, a run. What if you're Krugel, what are you going to throw this batter? Fastball or a curve ball? Whoa, that was way too high. It was a fastball but it was up and in and that loads the bases. And that brings up the second baseman, Nathan Hendricksy. That was a little high. Yeah, not a good one there. Krugel's got to start coming in with strikes. The pitch count is piling up two. I don't know if you know Nathan. Pitchers are limited to 100 pitches and they have to be taken out. Had pitches in there, evens the count at one-on-one?  Reach 100 and you're done. Hendricksy with a swing and a miss. Makes the count one ball and two strikes. Krugel one pitch away from getting out of it. Hopefully. Yeah, North has scored one in the inning. They lead it four to nothing. That pitch is right down the middle and falls straight back. Ron Miller running the camera behind home plate. He's got it lined up with that little opening and the link gives us a good shot at the umpire, the catcher and the batter. Catch right there for strike three. One run in the inning after two-and-a-half innings. It's a north four. Solved nothing. You have arthritis. It can be a painful reminder of all the things you can't do. Let's get a grip on arthritis. By donating at arthritis.org. Some chores you dread. You do them. But that doesn't mean you're happy about it. Then there's registering with the selective service. If you're a young man turning 18, the law says you have to register. It'll keep you eligible for college loans, government jobs and training, and it only takes two minutes, which makes it not only your most important chore, but the easiest. Register at SSS.gov or the local post office. Whatever you want. So we're back here. Filled the drinks. Sheboygan, Wisconsin. They set for Cameron Meyer. And we are in the bottom of the third. Finally, south has gotten through the order and that brings the leadoff hitter up. The left fielder, Elliot. Pethan. He struck out his first time up. Pitches a strike by Peyton Voight. It's a strike on one. That one was a little too high. Or was it? One ball, two strikes, two and two. It's two and two now. Pitches right there for strike three. Call strike. Peyton Voight doing a good job of keeping the base runner. Cameron Meyer close. Cameron Meyer still on first base. He reached on a single to center field. Got one out. There you see Cameron number five. Playing shortstop today. That's one one count now. So Nathan, if you were in the truck, would you be running this portion? Down in the lower right corner? The score and the count and the inning and all that? Exactly. The scoreboard was compatible with the scoreboard. It would make life a little bit easier, but you know, it's filled with dreams. That one was a little too high. Dry base hit the left. Meyer left a hold at second, but a good hit by Tim. That hit went over Nisey's head. Both runners seem to be taking conservative leads for South. Pitch in the dirt. They're making a great play. Keep the ball in front of them, not allowing the runners to move up. Meyer was thinking about it, but he was like, no, I'm just going to head back. Eric Schmitz, the pitching coach for North, coming out to talk to Payton Voight. What do you think the coach is telling him? To be honest, I really don't have an idea. About throw strikes. Yeah. Soik stepping back in to the batter's box. He got a base hit his first time up. Back in the first. It's a pitch up high. It's a 2-0. Yes, I think I'm at Peth and not Meyer out in second. Yeah, Cameron Meyer is on second base. Nathan and Tim is over at first. Soik draws a walk and that loads him up with nobody out. With one out, pardon me, for South. And their number four hitter, Lars Krugel. Let's go.  Oh man, if he hits a home run, guess what? That would tie up the score. Kind of stating the obvious there, but got a kick start in the south. Ball hit down the right field line. It drops foul. Looking over by the north dugout, they don't seem to have anyone warming up that we can see. So for now, they're going to be sticking with Peyton Voight. Voight has pitched a very good game so far. He's in trouble now, however. There's a pitch in there for a strike. 0-2? Yes. Pitch in the dirt. Good stop by Steger. What are you things going through Lars's mind right now? Make contact. Just put the bat on the ball. South had an excellent opportunity back in the second inning with a leadoff. Triple, triple by Klessig, but they were not able to get him in. There's a high ball, high fly ball. And Nezzie called off Steger and he couldn't make the play. Krugel stays alive.  That ball just sealed up in the air. Normally on a play like that, you'd like the third baseman to take it. He's got a little better glove for catching those kind of balls, but Steger actually got on the ball first and maybe he should have just taken it. I'd give props to him. He's a pop-up again in foul territory. And Steger makes a catch. What a play. Oh, my. The fence and into his glove. Well, if it would have been off the fence, it would have been a foul ball. Wouldn't have counted. But Coach Lomons is coming over and saying that's exactly what happened. I was going to say, because I saw the ball. Looks like he's not going to win this one. He is not. And it's going to leave it up to Trey Klessig. Klessig had a triple, his other trip up. Back in the second, we get Mr. Wright back on the mic. I'm going to ask him what he saw over there in foul territory. Paul too. Coach Lomons for that. Definitely not. That pitches in there for a strike, makes it two balls and one strike. North on top, four to nothing. Another pitch right down the middle. I think Klessig would like to have that pitch back. Klessig swings out a ball and that ends the inning. Peyton Voight works out of a bases loaded. Jam, and the score remains. North, four, south, nothing. Mom and Dad used to argue about everything, especially about Dad's drinking. My family went from totally crazy to quiet, calm, and even peaceful when Mom started going to Alanon family groups. I wanted a better relationship with Dad, so I asked Mom if she would take me to her Alanon meetings or to Alateen. I'm sure glad I did. If someone's drinking troubling you, you might be surprised at what you can learn in an Alanon or Alateen family group from people just like you. Call 1-888-4-ALANON or go to Alanon. If you don't fix them, sparks from dragging tow chains could cause a wildfire. And that could be scary. Ah, Skokie! Only you can prevent wildfires. We're back at the Field of Dreams and just looking at my score book, Chris, through three innings. North, pardon me, south, has left five guys on base. Not been able to come through with the big hit, but talk a little bit about that foul ball. Nathan thought it hit the fence. I couldn't tell what you see. I thought it ricocheted off, too, and tough call. But again, Coach Loomis, you know, I like him, but he's been out to argue three calls already. And I think the umpires are just going to be setting their ways, and there, too, maybe ask for help again there if they needed it. That would have been the right thing. That's the 73rd pitch there, Marty, for Krugel, and we're in the fourth inning. That's a lot. You want to be at about 45 at this point.  Three innings. North had the leadoff guy on. Yeah, it was Feinberg with a walk in the first. Dominguez with a single in the second. And Maisie with a single in the third. Feinberg's been a great leadoff hitter. He's seen 17 pitches already. There's a hard ball right to Meyer at short. Showing off the gun gets Witter at first on a nice play. Had a pretty clean game today too, Chris. I've only got both teams with one error, and that was a throwing error by Meyer. Yeah, I, I as well. And, uh, boy, his pitch count up high there. And this inning is three pitches, and you're on your fourth batter. This is just what Krugel needs here to keep his team in. Maisie up. He's, uh, has a couple of singles. A line drive past the second baseman in the center field for a hit. Maisie goes the extra base and gets in there. Heads up base running by, uh, Jacob. I was in the gap backhanded play. Hunter Stager up. Single in a run back in the first inning, reached on a fielder's choice in the third and scored. Did have a stolen base. The ball has hit straight back for a foul. Bars with nothing but strikes here in the fourth, Marty. Yeah, he's, uh, finding the strikes so no doubt about that. Temperature has, uh, dropped considerably. Typical Sheboygan. I remember every now. Well, you've played, you know, close here enough, and I've umpired here enough to know that, uh, in a heartbeat, the wind can change and all of a sudden it goes from a very nice day to something that's pretty brutal. That's what we're getting here. People watching at home think it's wonderful out there. Basically it is, but it's a little bit chilly too.  Yeah, first base open. Got two balls and one strike on the hitter. Can still attack here. You want to be smart to a four, four hitter. The bouncing ball to Meyer, he's got it. Double clutch, but, uh, right to Syke for the out, and that ends the inning. Good inning for South. They retire North at the end of three and a half. North still leads it four to nothing. I'm not your charity case. I am not your excuse to buy a new dress for the annual fundraiser. I am not the poster charge for your big donation. I am out of debt and in my own home. I am off opioids. I'm graduating on time and on my way to a great job. I am. I am. We are. We are. We are. We are. We are. We're. We're. We're. We're. We're. We're. We're. What it means to live united. Getting ready to start the bottom of the fourth inning. Kate Voith is pitched a heck of a game. Chris, he's been able to get himself out of some pretty dicey jamms. Yeah, he's. Giving up four hits, but, uh, no damage 40 eight pitches unofficially. I have him at. He's getting 1.67 so for one of the ball game flew out the center field and coach goes probably wants him to get through this a little quick just in case the rain starts so we can get through and as he does he throws two balls. I gotta get through five. The South is the home team. Well the South is the home team so you have to give them their fifth at that anyway. Looping liner to Brent Whitter and he makes an easy play on it that brings up the catcher for South Colin Brennan. Brennan grounded out the third back in the second inning when South had a lead-off triple by Trey Klesig and they were not able to get him in. Chris you mentioned how you got to put the bat on the ball and he did but he had a bad option in Jacob Nasey. Yeah there's a good shot of Voight breaking ball is up high. Voight plays a little first and short. He's made four relief appearances so far and has done really quite well making a start here in North-South game. With a hit there's Voight just out of the reach there of Hendricks base hit. Brings up Colin Mangan off attempt not in time. Only a sophomore Chris was moved up from the JV team for the ball game tonight. They're short on numbers Marty and so South's JV is basically non-existent because they've been playing behind us and tomorrow North plays. Taxi squad. Yeah I was gonna say tomorrow North travels to our plays home to Plymouth. Plymouth's a real nice. Okay home safe at second. I'll be real honest with you when he made the call. Look at this.  But an out. Yeah but an out that's absolutely right. I think there was a poor choice there to take off to try to run the third trailing. Yeah by four. By four runs. I think Hendricks he made the tag. Good decision. No. How to play the situation. On by four runs. Wasn't like it was in the outfield either. Oh right. Hey you don't run on some of these North infielders so you have great arms. Wow. It's just not a good decision there. Good had runners on first and second with one out. Yeah. Instead it's a runner on first with two outs and your number nine hitter Cameron Meyer up Cameron did get a hit back in the third. Yep. Thank Danny Meyer for stopping over by the table and telling us a little bit about the ballpark and Boygan is season coming up. And went away. He vaguely mentioned it but kind of a big deal is this five K run that they do. It's been a good fundraiser for him and hopefully they'll be successful again this year. Fund runs are very popular and having it over the Memorial Day weekend. Boygan Public Education Foundation also sponsors a five K run walk down at Vowreth Park. And that happens on June 8th. Next day is graduation down there. Want to consider that run also. And you got the two pictures they sent you. Yep. Vowreth's tennis courts. Doesn't look like a whole lot's been going on there. They got all the fencing down but haven't done anything with the surface. Apparently the plan has put in two tennis courts and then on the other side put in three pickleball courts which makes Chris doubly happy. And a swing and a miss by Meyer ends the inning for South and we're four innings through and North leads it four to nothing.  But with all you've got going on don't forget to register with selective service. It's the law. It only takes about two minutes to register at SSS dot gov. And you can do it without even looking up from your phone. Just like that when you turn 18 register at SSS dot gov. With mother's finances. I wish we had discussed this sooner. It's difficult making decisions from mom with dad gone. A lot has changed. Seeing my parents age I worry about their financial decisions as we age our ability to make good financial choices decreases. Start the conversation today and plan for the future. Financial resources and tools are available at smart about money dot org. A non-commercial organization focus on your financial six getting ready to start the top of the fifth. This is an important inning. Chris given the weather forecast that was your key to talk. Well I agree with you. I know I agree. It is an important Indian. I thought you're going to tell the fans the rule about getting five in all this. Before but I was a very good point. At first I heard rain around six. And this game is kind of dragon. So hopefully hopefully get it all in. As we mentioned in the last inning it's very typical. Sheboy gonna do this cold weather and we knew the rain was coming. You know they called for rain pretty much all day. So just glad to get an opportunity period. My ball out to right. And the catch is made out there by Jake Leonard. Ryan Tross there. My phone says five thirty nine which game started at four thirty. That means it's an hour old. But you think that's pretty good for innings in an hour. Well yeah for an hour an hour. I don't think that's too bad. No. In the dirt. One pitch went out to Tross. In that last half inning went pretty quick too. For. Was at the inning before that with the classic getting Feinberg and Witter and then any stager for the third out after a single by Neze or a double by him. And north leads four to nothing. Lucky to be ahead four to nothing. They've had an opportunity to with bases loaded south set an opportunity base loaded neither team could clutch up. And the more they hang in there south you never know. Especially if the pitch counts start going up and one thing South's going to be having to worry about is getting a new pitcher in there as large as running out of pitches. Sure swings at a bad pitch there even to count it two and one out in the fifth inning on deck is James Shear. Ethan and the drum line. Marty. I didn't know that. Nice play. Good throw by the third baseman for result Dylan Tim. Very nice. Went after it. A lot of people like to wait back. He went after it because it was slowly hit turf probably helped him there the grass that probably would have been an infield hit. Took the words right out of my mouth. I was going to say the turf helped him on that one. I thought James Shear you had a home run against the peer the other day. Oh wow. Little too much too late for North. They were trailing eight to one going in the bottom of the seventh. They rallied with three and too little too late. Had had some threatening but unfortunately fell a little short. Peer leading the league. They are undefeated ranked eighth in the conference. Very strange conference this year. Peer as I mentioned six and all Bayport and Preble four and two preble a preseason number one ranking really standing pitching outstanding hitter and Max Wagner but they can't seem to score right now. And it's funny all those things go. I mean they lost that one to nothing and I mean there's no question who the better team is but in baseball you never know can hit the balls right to the when we were in Arizona we would try to follow as best we could what's happening back home by reading the press and gosh they had an article in the paper about high school baseball when North had that dynamic rally to win a game in the bottom of the seventh. It's Appleton West and there's a shot base hit for sure. Yeah they rallied from eight down to get nine. There being no hit through the sixth. That pitcher did not throw the seventh and that's when North rallied for nine on Dominguez is up next. We're going to change a pitchers coach. All righty. You got it. Why don't you take us to a commercial break for a bit Scott and then when we come back we'll update some of these changes. The police called after midnight when they caught our son at a drinking party. It was a real wake up call. A policeman suggested we try Al-Anad family groups.

There you see the new picture for south. It's a Colin Brennan who was catching moving from first base to catcher is Ben Syke and also in the ball game is number 28 John Meyer. He's moving over to first base. The number of changes for south. I was trying to see where Lars Krugel went to. Chris did you notice where he went? That's Tim Moyer scoring for north. He was actually out on the field. Lars Krugel going to short. Kohler's out of the game and John Meyer Brennan the catcher we got that is pitching now. Mangan. Yeah. Alright let's go through the Syke moves from first to catching Krugel goes from pitching to short. John Meyer comes in for Mason Kohler and is going to play first base. Brennan went from catcher to pitcher makes his first pitches outside throw down not in time. We got a stolen base. Mangan went from second to right and Cameron Meyer went from shortstop over to second. Shear with a stolen base. We got two outs in the top of the fifth. No. Dominguez up takes a strike. You know for one pitching change Chris it's a lot of position changes. Another pitch right on the outside corner. Makes the count one ball and two strikes. Dominguez singled back in the second walked in the third and swings through a fastball to end the inning at the end of four and a half nor still leads it four to nothing. Get to search for life in the universe and who knows maybe life is looking for us too. So we're like aliens to them. Yeah. Does anyone want to be a scientist now? I do. Awesome. We need more girls in STEM. Maybe we can find aliens. Hey we missed you at the game last week. Is everything all right? I uh just haven't been feeling like me lately. You know I'm here for you right? That's a cut. Beautiful. Acting is one thing. Talking about suicide in real life is another. In the military you take challenges head on. And now it's your turn to do the same for our veterans. Be there. Learn how you can start the conversation at bethereforveterans.com And you can see them there bundled up here at the Field of Dreams. The wind has changed. Wind direction. And let me tell you something Marty. Just like on TV our filter is a lot lighter than what it actually is out here. Oh great point. It's getting dark. Yeah get good point. It's getting really dark. I mean it's you know tough to see but that camera there makes it look it says it's 55 and cloudy. But the feels like temperature is probably 41. Yeah I hate to bring this up Chris but Coach Lumens did give us some stats. Pethon steps. You know when we started tonight's game he was batting 0-62 and he's got two strikeouts tonight. It's been a tough season for that young man. Hopefully he can pick it up a little bit right here. Starting the fifth inning for north is another starter. Peyton Voight he's pitched a good ball game. Pitch count for the innings and is in good shape. Yeah 67 unofficially. I'd like to say you know if you can go 15 and any in our last but unfortunately that'll get you over the limit. That's what happened the other night to north unfortunately. Ben Vorpel was one batter away from a no-hitter and he ran out of pitches early strikeout there. Third strikeout for Pethon. That's unfortunate the rules like I said I always think the rules should be about 110 maybe. Be a little more fair because that way you can you know have an inning of 17 or something and still complete it. Dylan Tim is up. Tim hitting 333 coming into the ball game that's gone up with his one for two he's single back in the third. And I and I know that personally there's teams that do take a lot of pitches just to get those numbers up to get that starting up. It changed the way the game has been played. Especially the first time through the order you'll take pitches and you know get that count on because you want to get to that bullpen. It's even more important for the pitchers to be throwing strikes right away. What we are afraid was going to happen is starting to happen. It's not raining. And that's a walk to Tim. He's reached with one out in the top of the bottom of the fifth pardon me.  Soik is singled and walked. Chris came with his tarp. I've coached before. Coach Van Begel is the tarped master. You guys had the tarp out that one time when you fried for the old timers. He is coach Van Begel coached with me for 25 years would be the tarp guy. He was new to bring tarps and blankets and things. Even when we golf now we don't we don't coach we play golf in a golf league. Soik got hit that puts two runners on with only one out. He brings towels and blankets and our towels and rags and even when we golf he's always got us prepared. Getting dampness on my papers. Lars Krugel is up. Krugel now playing short. People standing over by the north dug out to drive out to right field. It's short coming in his truss. He makes a dive. Cannot catch it. It's in for a hit and that loads the bases up again for the Red Wings. This is a big inning. They've threatened. They have threatened south. They've been in scoring position before none but here again with just one out. You have the five six seven guys coming up. Going to be a new hitter though on deck though. Classic is up. He had a triple earlier but he struck out in a clutch situation back in the third. He's hoping to come through right now. He's one for two on the night. Yeah he stranded the bases low at once but he did have that triple. You're right. Coming into the ballgame tonight Tray was hitting 217. He did have three doubles however. Drive down the right field line his wayfowl. Even the count at one and one. Throwing going on out of the north side. I don't know if he's going to pitch or... Half swing there by Classic just to get bad on the ball and followed it off. Makes it one ball and two strikes. Austin Slavinsky warming up. He's a nice kid too. Awesome. He and Peyton good buddies. The ball is in the dirt. Steger with a good stop. Keeps it in front of him. Evens the count at two and two. 83 pitches now for Peyton. Done a great job tonight. Yeah John Meyer is the new on deck hitter for Mason Coller who came out of the game and that pitches up high and that loads the count along with the bases. Voitz got to throw a strike Chris. And that pitch rides up high for bases loaded walk at South Hazard. First run. Coach Steve Goh is coming out. Talk to his pitcher. He's got a new hitter. Keep him in there. Be confident. Pitch out of the wind-up or the stretch wherever you feel comfortable. One out. Brand new hitter. Yeah John Meyer according to this is hitting 222. Limited at bats only a seven at bats. That's not right. He can't get a 222 batting average with seven at bats. One for eleven. One for seven. Two for nine would be 222. According to this he's got seven at bats. Actually he doesn't have a batting average Chris. Okay. He's at zero. That was his on base percentage. He's looking for his first hit of the season. Again new hitter. Peyton can get out of it. Steve Goh is showing a lot of confidence in Voight. I think that was also to kind of give Dawson a little extra time to warm up and then drop. They're getting bigger. Many years ago Chris we were doing a basketball game out at Lakeland College and I don't remember who the baseball coach was but uh he gave you a hooded sweatshirt and you said can I John Weber and you said could I have one for my buddy my my announcing partner and you got me one. I'm wearing it tonight and it's doing a great job. Keep it me warm. Three and oh I think is the count. Swing and a miss by Meyer. Maybe two on two. I think it's two and two. Got to put the ball in play. Got to focus. He doesn't. And Meyer swings late on that pitch and strikes out. We now have two outs and Colin Brennan up. Now Brennan single is last time up. It's one for two in the ball game. He's capable. He's got the athletic ability and baseball talent. Fall off the uh Stegers met for strike one. Had a good rip at it though. Four to one is a score. Tying run is on first.  No place to put them. Pitch and a dirt gets away from Stegger. All the runners are going to move up and scoring from third. His path on me. Syke scoring on a wild pitch. There the pitchers got to help them and tell them where it is located but uh and that one should have been if that was the right pitch they're going to put Brennan on. That's a good decision. Attentional walk to Colin Brennan and that brings up the right fielder. He's got a clutch up. This is the right thing by attacking with a strike. Base hit could tie the game Marty. Yeah tying runs on second now. I'm sending them. I don't care what the. Given the artificial turf Chris they'd be able to play pretty long into the rain. I don't know how long we can do that. Pitch in the dirt makes it two balls in one strike. Voight cannot walk another batter. The bases are loaded. There are two outs. Mangan one for two he walked. Back in the fourth and he's uh Paces to draw another one. Yeah a little tired now. Long inning. Long inning Marty. Yeah they'll be on the move. You're right. Two outs. Bases loaded. South down two. Swing the bat. Make something happen. Call strike three but uh south does come up with two and at the end of five complete it's north four south two. TV star I dare you to stand up here. To call the shots. To be a role model. An inspiration. An innovator. To be a teacher.  Make me excited about signs like you. Have a career that really means something. Then do it. I dare you. We had mentioned uh prior to the start of the game Chris said uh don't be don't be down about solace one and six record. They got a pretty nice team and uh as you can see tonight they are battling all the way and uh I've kept this game close. Should have beat southwest. Lost two other games for Manitouac who's having a very nice season by one. Those were walk-off wins by those two clubs. So uh so they're hanging in there with north. North had plenty of opportunities as well to score runs. They've stranded uh as Marty's mentioned before seven guys as well. They start off with Nathan Hendrixy though and then the top of the order see if they can get a hold of uh Relief pitcher Colin Brennan. North will have a new pitcher as well since that was 98 pitches unofficially for Peyton White. White doing a good job of working out of uh trouble and two out of the three. Allowed a couple of runs in that last thing but overall you'd have to give him positive marks for his pitching performance. Maybe a few less walks. Pitch is a strike. Walks are going to hurt you and that's what's been the case for both pitchers tonight. White struck out the side last inning Chris. If uh that was his last inning he uh finished the night with the five walks and eight strikeouts. Yes Savosky will be coming in to pitch.  Hendrixy is uh sacrificed back in the second and struck out in the third. Ground ball to second. Nice play over there. That's the first out of the sixth inning.  He took 17 pitches 15 in his first two at bats and then two in his next at bat but he's part of the reason Krugl wore down and had to be removed. Really good lead off hitter great speed. Holds that bat up high. Rendon's pitch is uh just a little bit off the outside corner. Has he called it a strike though? No well I don't know. He kind of raised his hand maybe. What I don't like about this particular umpire is I've watched him throughout the game. Chris he's got a lot of extraneous motions with his arms.  Don't raise that right hand. Oh they're gonna say got hit. Oh that's uh gotta hurt. Well and now you put the speed at second and I would think within a couple pitches as the drops keep getting bigger the uh he's going to be standing on second base quite quickly. Brent Witter is up next for uh I don't know what they're talking about because you're not going to do anything to Witter because Witter's not going to punt and second uh they may try to pitch out but Freiburg they know runs well. And Witter is one for three. Singleton scored back in the first inning and then he popped the third and the grounded to short. His other two trips so he's hit the ball every time.  As we move along it's getting a little bit worse. They're going to try to keep him close but uh senior great base runner. I like the socks. Old school. Give me the stirrup. And that's did you notice that did you? Saw the stripes I didn't really stir up there. There you go there you get a good shot at it. It's got the three stripes on the team sock. Stirrup showing you look at most of the other players they got their pants like all the way down to their shoes. There's a strike. Makes it one in one. Yeah I'm thinking you have Witter and Maisie two of the best hitters in the entire league. Freiburg running and he's going to be in there easily. Oh he fell off the bag though. Umpire still calls him safe. Oh wow. Let me get a time out. Not a very good slide into the base. You know that's something else we haven't talked about. Sliding on artificial turf. Chris a little different than on dirt. Last pitch was a strike. Makes it one ball and two strikes with the runner on second. Witter squares one up. On the right. And a nice catch made. Oh he dropped the ball. That'll score a run. Oh I'm safe. What do you give Witter on that Chris? A double. Hey first RBI for Witter. Closer plate to plate than I expected. Yeah me too. Much closer actually. I thought the umpire was pretty emphatic with a safe call. I don't know why there was a question. The score is now five to two north. Here first run since the third inning. Oh you have to deal with Maisie and that's all because of the hit by pitch. You know walks and hit by pitches and free bases lead to runs that you can't afford to do and it's really raining out. You know we talked about Maisie being cleared right before the game to be able to play. Good thing. He's three for three. It falls that one off. Maisie's run down is a single and he's at an RBI and he scored back in the first. He singled in the third and doubled in the fourth. Hustling double. It's a roller through the right side and it finds a hole and it's in for a hit. Witter coming around. He's going to score. And I don't know what the pitcher is doing on the mound but he should be behind home plate there. That's not his job. To be the cutoff. No and there you see it. Brennan should be backing up. The first baseman should be the cut. He's late getting out there and then Brennan decides to take it and that's not the right decision either. Oh I play the devil's advocate for just a second on that play. Yep. You don't pitch much. You don't know what's going on. It's not intuitive and that might be part of the problem. He pitches. He pitches enough. All right. We're going to check this out. I'm not saying this year. No, no. Okay. He pitches in Legion and. Yeah. So he's been around the block. Right. And last year. Yeah. He's only got he's got so few innings. Pitchcrest I can't even find out. Don't make. That's a few. But you're right.   Yeah. You've got to know a little bit. Do a little better than that. Pitch is off the catcher's glove. Nasey dives in the second. Teddy done a pop-up slide. He might have made it the third. We're going to give him a stolen base because he was running on the pitch. Now with only one out North has two runs in. They're up six to two. You got Nasey on second. And if this rain continues we might have to pull the plug literally. I mean we don't want to tell this TV and devices in the rain. It kind of. Well we did that game at Lakeland that. Yeah. We have a TV. It was just sitting in the rain. They kept us off the grass. Yeah. There's a catch is made. And Nasey goes the third tagging up Hunter Steggers out. It's two outs now in the inning. Two runs in. And Ryan Tross is up. Tross did a good job there Chris. Running behind home plate. Was ready to help Nasey if he was going to come home. Absolutely. Those are the simple things you know. You could tell my coaching was getting into that last one when the pitcher was standing there and that's another one. Do the simple things. Line drive base hit right down the line. Good hit by Tross. He's going to go to second. Should be in there with a double. And again diving in put him in with a stand up double. But he's got a double in an RBI and another run for North. They're starting to open it up a little bit here Chris. Yeah. Well Sal's hung around but they did not take advantage of their opportunities. And North now decides to do some pounding.  You know you're pretty much doomed. And this ball hit pretty well too. Out in the left field and catches made out there to end the inning finally but not before North comes up with three more runs. And they lead it after six five and a half seven to two. Smart about money is a free online resource.

Getting ready to start the bottom of the sixth inning North adding to their lead putting three runs on the board in the top of the sixth. And South will be starting off with their number nine hitter Cameron Meyer and then they'll move to the top. See Derek Luhmann's talking to the umpire. Looks like he's going to make some changes get some more of his players in the ballgame. Dawson Selvasky. Yep Dawson yeah. Dawson Selvasky now in for North. Dawson pitching plays a little first base. On base for South Marty nine. Yes a lot. And that's uh that's only two five innings. Too many. Clutch up. Mentioned before the peer leads the lead followed by Bayport Preble two games back. Then he got Manitowoc at three and two excuse me. Bayport's four and two. Preble Manitowoc is one three and two. Pulaski three and three. Southwest two and three with North. South eight. Pitch is outside that makes it two and oh nine hitter Cameron Meyer. Meyer started a short move to uh second base when Lars Krugel was taken out from his pitching chores. Right he's signaling to take first base and that's uh with you do that with your right arm you're uh signaling a strike for us uh experienced baseball people. And that's what's uh been throwing us off every once in a while. And now somebody here like Witter or Naezy should take a walk. And uh by that you mean go and talk to uh Dawson time out. Hey we're winning we just got your five runs we only need six outs. You know we're a good team we got a great defense. What are you having for supper tonight? You know discuss. Where are we going after the game? Yeah discuss life settle them down. One and one is a count. There's a pitch drives up and in to uh Pethon. Pethon's had a tough night Chris. Oh for three with three strikeouts. Others say they could go to his Witter. Long sack. That pitch looked pretty good but it was called the ball.  And uh when you put enough guys on base and there's Witter taking a walk to talk to Sylvosky and uh you might be saying more than uh where are you going after the game. Oh he's saying hey we're all right here no problem. But again like the situation that happened in the top of the order where you walked Fryberg which led to Witter and Nasey you're coming with the two three four you just walked a guy who has one hit on the season. Yeah exactly. And now they're I don't know why we're playing up to a bunt here because they're not going to be in a bunting down by five I would think. I would venture to say Chris I don't know how you feel but you can almost play a little bit deeper on this artificial turf the way the ball comes off the bat. Oh yeah. Tim is up he's uh one for two with a walk and he scored back in the fifth. Sylvosky's pitches uh in the dirt gets by Hunter Steger and the runners for uh South move up to uh second and third. And that's 10 of 11 and warming up is Bennett Becker. And uh I would think he's going to be I would be telling him in a hurry. Now our umbrella is dripping water. Yeah. Sylvosky having all kinds of trouble throwing a strike. He's got Tim two balls and no strikes South as runners on second and third. They're down five but now they've loaded the bases with nobody out on three walks. That's gotta be it there's no off. Syke is up next. Syke has been on base every time up Chris he's got a single a walk and a hit by pitch. Wow I'm a little surprised by this party. First pitch is up high. Syke uh came into tonight hitting 364. Ball two goes bringing in the relief pitcher. And this will be Dawson's responsibility and uh why they play the game Marty. Yeah that's exactly right. A really good athlete he can play outfield infield pitch. Definitely going to be a big factor next year with Nazie and Freiberg and Witter are gone. He'll be a every day regular player for sure. These are some awfully big shoes to fill here the coach. I mean you know how do you replace guys like that. You've had great teams at North with great players and when they're gone I mean it's almost impossible. Yeah they have a very nice JV team. They have a very nice eighth grade coming in I know as well so we have some good things for North but right now Bennett in a bind base is loaded. The good thing is is you know you're still up by five runs and you just got to get out. You know if you get every batter it comes your still should be you know ahead. But the problem is you got Krugel you got to deal with Krugel and Syke and then Clussing some of the meat. Yeah right you're getting right in the heart of the order for South.  Becker you said is in. Yep two O count Syke baseball player. The first pitch is right in there for a strike. Hey we got two balls and one strike bases loaded nobody out for South they trail it by five. The chance to seriously get back into this ball game and their pitch is off the outside corner for ball three. Pitch is down low for a walk and a run is in for South and they still do not have anybody out and they have the bases loaded. Me to the orders up Lars Krugel. Krugel singled his last time he's one for three in a ball game. He's hitting 250 coming in which is outside for a ball. That's pretty sad. Bouncing ball toss home by Nazy from his third base position gets the force out at the plate. The way that wasn't that easy of a play Chris because he had to throw over the head of the runner only made it look easy. Good point for a plastic up for your starter. You mentioned Parkland where he's going that place is like the Juco to go to in the country. He does well there. He can always go to D1 players places later. There's a strike makes the count one and one classic is one for two of the walk that walk led to a run for South and RBI two and one seven to three north tying one is at the plate. Bouncing ball the first baseman makes a good throw home for the force out. Yeah very nice play by Nathan Shearer. You got your four and five hitters veteran players up there and neither clutches up slaps at it in a simple three to two. And now John Myers up. Yep hasn't had a get all season coming in. He didn't look comfortable swinging his last time up either when he struck out. I'll just one pitch away from avoiding a big inning for South.  One and one is the count. Pitch looked close but it might have been a little two and one. Myers got a piece that time. It's got to keep that front foot in. Something to buck it a little bit. Keep his eye on the ball. So I'm going to pitch up high for strike three and that ends the inning. North avoids a big inning by South by bringing in Bennett Becker and he got out of the inning with a couple of fielder's choices and a strikeout and we're at the end of six innings of play north on top seven to three. Talk to you about physics. Come on in girl let's go. This is the first rocket to get humans to Mars. I'm a rocket structural engineer designing and building parts of the rocket. You are the generation that will be stepping foot on Mars. Do I have a group of astronauts on my hand?  The score stays the same Chris when South looks back at this loss. They're going to see that they left 12 guys on base. They had the bases loaded three different times. Now one of the times they did score a couple but they've had some opportunities that they just haven't capitalized on. Yep and both teams going to be here in a seventh starting with their 789 hitters. It just goes to show how close South has come. Team that struggled last year and obviously just won one this year but they're in the games. They're in the games and they just need a few heroes and one of the hardest things too is you always talk as a coach is can we win? Learning how to win, how to close out games and such. All good points Chris and those are the things that you'd like to learn at the lower levels. Gentlemen in the sweatshirt there at Garrett Rivest he played for me. He coaches the JVs. He had a nice sweet swing. You can see around home played the dampness on the artificial turf. If we were playing on a dirt field it'd be pretty tacky back there. Colin Brennan remains in the ball game for South. Had a tough inning back in the sixth when he hit the lead, pardon me, hit the second batter Feinberg and that led to three North high runs. He hit the ball pretty good. Another hit through the hole. Sheer with his second hit of the ball game. That's the 11th hit for North in the ball game Chris. Norse pitching. We talked about Peyton Voight and the nice job he did. The one drawback would have been the five walks in five innings but he did have eight strikeouts. But in the ball game for North they've walked eight south batters but you know they got to improve on that. They want to be successful. Here's Owen Dominguez, one of two right? Yep, exactly. Let off the second with a base hit. Pitch is a ball. One and one is a count. Maybe not. Maybe yes. I can't see his left hand.  It's going to attack again. Slit over the base, Marty. Just what you called before. Yeah. No, I haven't seen one North high kid slide feet first. Good throw by the way. Making that throw was Ben Syke. You got it down there in good shape. You know North likes to run. There's one out. Nobody on base. Dominguez strikes out. Half hearted swing on that one. I don't think he wanted to but that went around. Alan Sack is going to hit here in nine hole. Kevin Lownsack, another nice young man. Nathan Hendricks who he's pinch hitting for is actually warming up to pitch. So I don't know if they're going to go in. I assume they're going to re-enter Nathan. And interesting move, Octris. Well, you have Hendricks warming up. And Becker was pretty smooth there. But Nathan's a veteran. Nathan want to trip to the, actually want to stay title game. Pitching at the Legion this summer. Or North would, excuse me, North, the Legion team, North-South Legion team went to, won the state title and went to regionals, won a few games there. Awesome summer. Hey Chris, let me ask you this. Now we know, well maybe our fans don't know this, but all of high school baseball in Wisconsin now plays in the spring. There's no more summer baseball. It frees up a lot of players for Legion. What are your thoughts on pulling in kids from around the county to play for Sheboygan Legion? Yeah, I think to me it's you want to, you know, I sure as bigger teams like Plymouth and they're going to try to have their own teams but in falls, but for the smaller schools. But I don't know, I always like to keep, personally I'm selfish. I want to keep North kids playing for North. But you're now going to have Christian kids and Luther kids have an opportunity to play as well on that Legion team. So that'll be nice. There have been in, not very often, but there have been a couple of kids from Luther who were good enough and opted to play a Legion ball because they felt their skill level was good enough. But certainly not a normal course of action, but now it could be. Right, and I keep Sheboygan for Sheboygan and I, you know, as a high school coach, you know, I want my kids playing and the chance that they can, the only way they're going to get better is that they're playing in the Legion now. It does offer opportunities for better kids to come in, but I guess it's, to me, Sheboygan is for Sheboygan. Now, let's keep it here, Scott. In Sheboygan Falls, let's say, they opt for a Legion team. It basically be an extension of their high school program because they're very small. Can a community or a community's Plymouth Falls co-opt for a Legion team between those two? Yes, again, absolutely, yes. Because that would seem to me to be a better course of action. You could run your more skilled players on a varsity level and the other players on a JV level. And there's different levels of Legion, too. There's, you know, a triple A, double A, and A.  Of course, you got to have sponsorship to get those teams going and the initial outlay I would think would be quite expensive. Yes, well, you know, a little bit. But you got a fundraise and it's different. And Coach Gose is, you know, he does the North and then he does the Legion. And it's, you know, it's got two purposes. You're serving there and that's a lot of work. I'll just tell you, that's a lot of work. And, you know, I know he likes the summer weather better. There's no doubt about it. No, he's, you know, that's. He's a wimp. The weather and baseball in the summer that way. But they kind of go together. But something to be said about playing for your team and in, you know, your high school team. But I know in Milwaukee, they have started a league of basically high school teams. They didn't do Legion. They're like playing, you know, because I was like basketball has. Right, right. And they, they, I know I was part of the, so we start the top bottom of the seventh. North on top, seven to two. And Bennett still pitching, by the way, Marty. Yeah. They re-entered Nathan. Seven to three, pardon me. Still scored a run. I know that I was involved, you know, when I was still on the emails asking if we would like to join that league. So that'd be Cedarburgs, the homesteads, the Brookfields, the Manawani Falls, but because we already have a Legion team. So a situation like that actually would hurt the Legion programs then, or could. Well, they don't have Legion because they were all high school teams in the first, because they played all summer baseball. And here we got a lead off walk, which is the last thing you want to do, starting off the seventh inning here. So basically the teams that were playing in the summer are now, they play in the spring, but now they now have a summer team as well, which would be a separate. Colin Mangan's up for Salt and he takes a pitch outside. And Bennett having trouble throwing strikes. He came in back in the sixth inning and was spot on. Not the case right here. Erie catches the corner with one. Yeah, he did what he had to do. He was clutched big time. Chris hasn't mentioned it in a inning and a half, but it is raining harder than it's been the whole time it's been raining. And this was to be expected. There's a swing and a miss for strike three. First out in the bottom of the seventh. See the score north on top seven to three. That brings up Cameron Meyer. Meyer started at short, moved to second. He's got a hit and two trips and a walk. And he scored a run. He's been busy. And I know he hits ninth. People think though that's the worst hitter. He's a veteran, good clutch hitter. And there you go. Right there's your base hit. Throw into second base, gets away from everybody. It rolls all the way down the left field line. And runners for South do not move up. Boy, I'm surprised at that, Chris. I'll tell you just, you know, first pitch Meyer was hitting. And he's got a sweet swing for a left-hander. I mean, a low left-handed better see to have a sweet swing. I played for my son this summer. And he, Tom, he liked him a lot. Oh, he liked him a lot. Elliot Peton's up. Elliot walked his last time. One of four walks in the inning at South Drew. So we got one out first and second. What you don't want here for north is to allow the time run to get to the plate. Oh, with the bases loaded or anything. Preferably to like to keep that tying run or the lead run in the dugout. Try to get a double play here, but I think he's going to be taking and he does. And again, you're you're pitching to a guy who has zeroes, you know. Not much success at the bat this year. No. What he's looking to do is draw a walk. And he's in great position with a 3-0 count. There's a good pitch. North a pitch away from the victory. Bennett Becker finished out the sixth. He's trying to finish out the ball game and gets a strike on a pitch that was... Let's put it this way. It was outside. I thought he was doing that point thing again. Yeah. And there's our double play ball. Step on third. Rifle over to first. And double played and the ball game. We're going to wrap this up real quick. North the winner 7-3. The winning pitcher was Peyton Voight. Save goes to Bennett Becker. Good effort by South, but just not enough. Too many guys left on base. Yep. Alrighty, that's going to do it. Great job by our crew. And for my partner Chris Wright, I'm Mike Martin saying thanks for watching. And we'll be back. We've got a couple games in May that we'll be doing too.


Hello. Good evening, everyone. I'm Fajr Mishtaq, the CEO and co-founder of Auxel. It's a true pleasure for me to present the mission behind my company, Auxel, which is to protect the health of our precious bodies of water against forever chemicals forever. So what are forever chemicals? These chemicals are indispensable part of our current life. They're used to make products such as cosmetics, personal care products, textiles, even electronics. We simply cannot live today without the use of these chemicals, which is also now quite problematic if you look at the effects of these forever chemicals. They are extremely toxic, even at low concentrations in the blood, resulting in multiple types of cancers. What's even more problematic is that costs associated with their cleanup are 16 trillion dollar costs yearly for their cleanup and health related costs. These forever chemicals are so persistent and so mobile in water that they have now contaminated thousands of sites across the US and Europe. What you see on this slide here is a map of Europe. Each dot is representing an area where extremely high concentrations of these forever chemicals were found in the drinking water, groundwater and soil. This is a huge global problem. And this is also creating a very exciting, from my perspective, momentum in the market, where customers who use these chemicals have to act now or face monetary damages. We are seeing an increasingly discharged limits getting stricter and stricter every year. What we're also seeing is that companies are facing threats to business continuity, where many of them are considering completely banning using these chemicals. The same chemicals where many of their revenues are being generated from. What's also happening at the current moment is that the companies who are using these chemicals are paying billions of dollars in litigation every year. For instance, 3M here paid 10 billion dollars this year for the lawsuit that they had in the US for contaminating the drinking water. They have another 150 billion in liability pending in court, and there are multiple such companies. The pressure is on to look at a better way of handling their wastewater. At the same time, it's really challenging for the customers to do that when the current solutions that exist for water treatment are inefficient, unable to scale, are costly, and also produce secondary byproducts that are even more toxic than forever chemicals to begin with. And this is where Oxal comes in. Our technology is truly efficient. We do not absorb, we don't filter, we actually oxidize and reduce these chemicals. So we basically break them down during our treatment. Leaving behind water that is safe to discharge at 15 times lower energy costs than the nearest competitors that we have and our technology is truly modular. You can easily scale it going from a small to extremely large flow rates for a customer at a good economic point for them. And it's a win for the environment. We don't generate any secondary waste. There is no toxic byproducts left. All that is left after a treatment is safe byproducts. There's salts, flow rides, CO2 water. That's basically what's left so the customers can easily discharge their water. So how do we do that? To give this option to our customers, it starts all with our novel catalyst. It's a catalyst that we have been developing at Oxal for 10 years. It's amazing material that takes highly scalable clean energy sources like vibrations bubbling in the water as an energy source and converts that into chemical energy to oxidize and reduce organic chemicals. We also provide our customers with our modular reactors that are very easy to scale. You can easily go from a small to large scale by simply putting multiple of our reactors in parallel. And we also give the customers the option of real time monitoring. We don't just say we treat it, we prove it to the customers how well the treatment works and provide this real time data to them as another additional service. Here, for example, you can see what I mean by our amazing treatment. This is one of our recent pilots as we just finished with the Swiss industrial customer. They face a huge legal issue. They have extremely high concentrations of pesticides and PFAS, forever chemicals in their groundwater. They have to treat this water or pay a lot of money in fines. Oxal comes in. We take care of this problem and show to them in six months a very stable cleaning performance. As you can see from the plot, stable removal of a wide variety of these toxic forever chemicals and that we could remove all of these different chemicals as 15 times lower energy value than the other competitors they were considering over us. We also got an amazing testimonial from the customer where they could see on site a proven technology that is scalable, is truly efficient and was cheap and affordable for them. Besides this customer, we are working with a wide variety of industrial leaders coming from environmental remediation segments, chemical companies, consumer tech and even semiconductors. Due to the stickiness of a technology, we can not only just scale vertically with them and grow with them, but also grow into more and more attractive consumer and product segment like textile companies, plastics and packaging in the future. And we are super excited to break into this $700 billion plus market and disrupt it with the game-changing technology. The USP that Oxal is offering to our customers, the market, the regulations, all the drivers are pointing towards a billion-dollar industry that desperately needs to be served, bringing Oxal's global market share to over $25 billion. And we know we can cap to that because if we compare ourselves to any of the existing treatments that are out there on the market, we're not only scalable and cost-effective, we even help our customers meet the current and future regulations. And to do all of that, we have assembled a stellar team. These team members that we have assembled are not just specialists in their areas, they're also our previous founders who have built deep tech unicorns in the past. We also have an amazing team that have a very strong technical scientific background, but a lot of experience in industry and in business development. We have reached every single stretch goal that we have set out for ourselves, completing 20-plus different customer projects, winning a lot of higher recognition, competitive competitions and grants, raising $7 million in funding, growing team of 23 people and launching our products next year with a full commercial rollout of bad systems. And with this, we are extremely thrilled to be raising our 10 million seed round, which will not just support the team and the product rollouts expansion, but will truly help us define ourselves at the water-defining company that this technology can truly be. Thank you for your attention and I wish you all a great slush. Thank you.


thing you will miss out on if you don't teach English abroad, seeing things from a different perspective.  You'll learn how others perceive your culture and country, and get to see things from a whole new perspective. You might be used to doing things a certain way, but might be surprised to learn, that there's a whole other approach to solving different problems. This is also a great trait to have when coming back home and applying for jobs.


Maybe we'll have Madric McNeely because he is only $8,800 and he's 65 to 1 which is actually the exact same odds as Max Homa and I would guess all that optimism from a betting perspective comes from his current form because McNeely enters this event having made 11 consecutive cuts. He has just four top 20s in that time but three of those top 20s have come within the past four events and that does include a fifth place finish at the Pebble Beach Pro Am. So good upside there. Some of this has been fueled by putting and Bermuda is not his best putting surface but he also gained 5.1 strokes in approach at the Honda Classic and he's now gained an approach in all four PGA Tour events since January 1st and we tend not to buy into small samples if they're with older golfers but McNeely's 24 and that makes sense that he might make some gains. So have you seen enough from McNeely to take some stabs here as a value play at $8,800? I don't know if I see enough not to chase it which is kind of how I tend to approach things. I try to be a little bit more skeptical and see you know there's got to be a reason not to play him. Now you mentioned he's kind of been fueled by his putter and that's definitely the case but the problem is I don't want to bank on like the 5.1 strokes approach at the Honda because one week samples really pretty irrelevant but he has been kind of gaining you know for the most part in 2020 like you said so that helps me and for $8,800 we don't need him to win necessarily. I don't know what the upside is but overall I don't hate it. Yeah. I think that's a format too like I'm intrigued I would say and this is a good tier. I think there at least I think it's a good tier. There are a couple other golfers I like who are right near McNeely's salary but I'm still okay with taking some stabs at McNeely and still filtering because I'm going to need more than one value play to go Rory plus balanced so I think that's fine. I'm in on him on McNeely. He is not my number one guy in this tier but he doesn't need to be in order to make my player pool whereas like with the other ranges you kind of do have to be at the top he's kind of like probably third I would say for me below 9,000 and that's okay. I can definitely get behind that still. Yeah just it comes down to how willing you are to buy into a small sample on a young guy because we can see those turnarounds we can see those adjustments be made the long-term form not promising so like again that's what I typically use for like projecting wins. I'm not saying that McNeely is going to win but his odds have moved from 100 to 1 to 65 to 1 so some people think he might have it. I don't think I'm quite there myself. Doesn't have to win though so we will certainly take it for Maverick McNeely at $800.
