Posted May 7/11 - Lakers defeat Plato 6-3
The Waconia Lakers Amateur baseball team (2-0) took its show on the road for the first time this year where they defeated the 2009 State Champion Plato Blue Jays (1-1).  Tied at 1-1 in the sixth inning with the bases loaded, Nick Litfin drilled a double clearing the bases, bringing the score to 4-1. The Lakers then added 2 runs in the ninth to finalize a 6-3 victory.

Peter Brown picked up his 2nd win going 5 and 1/3 and was aided by the impressive pitching of Ben Smothers who shut the door on the Blue Jays over the final 3 and 2/3 as he struck out 5. Chris Bullis led the Lakers hitting attack with 3 hits keeping his average at .750 (6/8), with an impressive .900 on base average (9/10) over their 2 games. Defensively Justin Klingelhutz stole the show both literally and figuratively making 2 fantastic diving grabs in the outfield, and then with a tight 4-3 game going into the ninth he reentered the game after a Riley Hansen single. He then stole 2nd and 3rd starting the 2 run insurance inning.

This week looks busy for the Lakers as they go to Watertown to face the Red Devils on Friday 5/13 @ 7:30, Saturday 5/14,  they come home to face the Hamburg Hawks, Lions Field @ 2:00, then Thursday 5/19, they hit the road again to face the Glencoe Brewers @ 7:30. Come on out and cheer them on.
