Hoping to get a non-conference game in before a big two-fer with Pella Christian, Pella High baseball was rained out in the third inning last night against Centerville. Coach Jesse Jablonski tells KNIA/KRLS Sports that there more than likely won’t be a make-up date with the postseason looming in roughly two weeks. The Little Dutch will turn their attention to a home doubleheader against Pella Christian tonight. Pella used a 13-run fifth inning to end things early against the Eagles in their earlier match-up this season. 17 – 2. However, Pella Christian is coming in hot, having won four of their last five games, including a 5 – 0 blanking of Oskaloosa on Monday. Holding a 4.5 game lead in the conference race with seven games to go, Coach Jesse Jablonski says tonight’s games, and the rest of their contests this week, will be huge for their run at another league title, and how they match-up in the postseason. Game two of this evening’s doubleheader can be heard live on KNIAKRLS.com via our KRLS2 stream. Cory Houser will have the play-by-play starting with the pre-game show at roughly 7:15 p.m., and first pitch at 7:30.
