The Waconia Lakers were brought down to earth Saturday by the great pitching of Cody Hallahan and the hitting of a potent Irish line up. Tied 0-0 going into the 4th the Irish struck hard with 10 runs and the Lakers were down for the count.

Hallahan pitched a masterful job striking out 7 of the 21 outs while giving up just 1 hit, a single by Robby Smothers. The Lakers were just unable to touch him.

"Getting beat 16-0 was a real eye opener for this team, We can see now why they have such a rich history in the the Crow River League and in Minnesota Ameteur Baseball overall. They certainly thumped us today," said Lakers coach Mike Bullis
