“We struggled a little at the plate in this game hitting way too many fly balls,” coach Jeremy Kalal said. “If we hit the ball on the ground, we get on base at a pretty good pace, but when we fall into the fly ball mode we seem to struggle more and this game was exactly that.”
New Prague collected eight hits in the game, but ran the bases really well and capitalized on some walks and a few Dakota errors, Kalal said.
