On Wednesday, July 3, the Post 30 Black Sox ended a two-game losing skid in the most emphatic way possible. Playing against the Langdon Red Sox in Langdon, Post 30 were looking to get back in the win column and develop some momentum as the postseason approaches. But as Wednesday's game got underway, the Black Sox certainly didn't do themselves many favors. With Keaton Cudworth on the mound, the Red Sox were able to score a run in each of the first two innings courtesy of an RBI single and a...
The Post 30 Black Sox suffered another setback on Thursday, June 27, this time against the Linton-Ashley-Wishek (LAW) Rattlers at home. Much of the struggle for Post 30 of late has been their defense. In their previous loss against LaMoure Post 19 on June 24, the Sox committed eight errors and allowed two unearned runs, spoiling what was a good pitching outing for Keaton Cudworth. Their very next game against LAW was a similar story: six defensive errors and five unearned runs allowed. Another...

After their game against Harvey was suddenly postponed on Thursday, June 20, the Post 30 Black Sox had plenty of rest going into their next home game against LaMoure Post 19 on Monday, June 25. Unfortunately for the Sox, however, that extra rest did little to stop LaMoure's excellent pitching and strong defense from outperforming them. Starting on the mound for LaMoure was Owen Lesko, who went on to pitch all seven innings while allowing just three hits, one walk and striking out seven Black...
Keaton Cudworth has pitched another gem, this time throwing a complete game shutout against the Devils Lake B Storm on Monday, June 17. Not only did Cudworth prevent any runner from crossing the plate, he also allowed just a single hit and struck out 10 Devils Lake batters in seven innings. To state the obvious, it doesn't get much better than that, and Cudworth couldn't have picked a better day to remind everyone why he's among the best pitchers in Class B baseball. As Cudworth took care of...
The elements were the X-factor when the best golfers and teams in Class B converged at CrossRoads Golf Club in Carrington for two days of abbreviated action Wednesday and Thursday, June 5-6. A three-plus-inch downpour several hours before play was supposed to begin on Tuesday, June 4, postponed the entire first day of golf to Wednesday. The original plan was to play an 18-hole one day event that day, but flooding on the southern portion of the course shortened the round to just nine holes. With...
