The Cloquet Lumberjacks will venture away from home to challenge the Little Falls Flyers at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday. The two teams each escaped (but just barely!) with wins against their previous opponents.
Cloquet's pitching crew heads into the contest hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Friday. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 2-0 win over Alexandria.
Aiden Theisen looked comfortable as he didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits over four innings pitched.
At the plate, Cloquet saw two different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Luca Gentilini, who scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-3.
Meanwhile, Little Falls hadn't done well against Pierz recently (they were 2-7 in their previous nine matchups), but they didn't let the past get in their way on Thursday. The Flyers had just enough and edged out the Pioneers 3-1. The victory made it back-to-back wins for the Flyers.
Peter Knopik spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered only one earned run on four hits.
