The Oskaloosa baseball team was in action last night against Pella Christian, having already defeated the Eagles in a pair of games earlier this year at home. PC proved to be very resilient on this evening, however, coming back from a couple of early deficits to get the win, 5-4. Osky’s record fell to 11-4 on the season.
The Little Hawkeye Conference standings are still a mess at the top with four teams within two games of each other. Pella got a win last night to move to 7-2 in the conference and take over first place by themselves. Newton lost to BGM in non-conference play, so they remain at 6-2, a half-game behind Pella. Oskaloosa is now in third, one game back at 6-3. Dallas Center-Grimes is also still hanging around, as they are 5-3 in the conference as well.
Oskaloosa baseball will get a chance to bounce back tonight on the road at Chariton, a South Central Conference opponent who recently lost to Newton, a team Oskaloosa has already beaten this year. You can hear that single varsity game here on the Mahaska Zone Network, 99.5 FM and AM 740 KMZN and on kboeradio.com. Our pregame will start right around 7:15 this evening.
