  • Chieftains Drop Opener the Riverdale Varsity Baseball Team Dropped
    Chieftains Drop Opener The Riverdale Varsity baseball team dropped their season opener on Friday Night to Wisconsin Heights by the score of 8-7. The Vanguards have a very experienced team with 8-starters back from last year’s sectional team and had a line-up of very good hitters. Coach Thompson “Heights has a very nice team with very good quickness and some very fine hitters. I thought over all we played decently for our first time out and we will improve greatly as the season progresses.” To open the 2016 season the first two Chieftains were retired but three straight walks would load the bases but unfortunately we would not score. In the bottom of the inning freshmen Michael Schaefer would take to the hill in his first varsity start. The first two WH hitters would reach on a hit batsman and a walk. Michael would then strike out the next hitter. However a base hit to right would plate a run and it was 1-0. Trying to limit the damage we would strike out the next hitter. Then with two outs we would K the next hitter but on the play the ball would get away from us and we would see two runs come in. Coach Thompson “Bad break there but things happen. I would be surprised to see that happen again this season.” Michael would escape further damage by striking out the next WH hitter. We would bounce right back in the top of the second. DH Drake Harris would lead off with a walk.

  • The Bullpen Is the New Starting Rotation
    The Bullpen is the New Starting Rotation A Look Into Modern Baseball Pitching Trends and the Tampa Bay Rays By Christian Wisniewski Common Man: Starting Pitching is still great, look! Expert: Congrats! You managed to pick the five best pitching staffs in the MLB, now what about everyone else? Common Man: …………………... Statistically, Starting Pitching is becoming weaker. (Not to this extreme) → Other reasons why: - MLB DL stints have gone up - Total number rose from 659 to 699 from 2017 to 2018. (Roster Resource) - Analytics have become more prevalent - Teams understand what happens to a pitchers numbers the more batters he faces. - The players today are better athletes then there were in the past - Fangraphs began tracking average fastball velocity in 2007 when there were 18 pitchers that pitched a 100+ innings who averaged 94+ MPH on their fastball, there were 32 Pitchers in 2018, almost double. - Bullpens are flexible compared to starting rotations - A manger can tailor his bullpen to be good against righties, be balanced, and can even have a pitcher whose main goal is to get out left-handed batters The 2018 Tampa Bay Rays and the “Opener” Origins - March 7th 2018: Manager Kevin Cash Announces the Four Man Rotation - “"We're going to try to stay at four…………..We're going to have some bullpen days in there. We're going to try and do that for a long period of time. We're going to learn a lot in the first six weeks.” - Kevin Cash (Bill Chastain) - "Not to blow it out of proportion, it's going to be a rotation to where you're going to have the consistency with the starters.

    April 10, 2019 Kock Shuts Down Rams in Home Opener The baseball team hosted its first home games of the season on Tuesday, April 9, and came away with a doubleheader split against North Central. After losing the first game 8-0, junior starting pitcher Adam Kock (LPS) pitched a complete game shutout in game two to lead the Knights to an 8-0 win. Kock allowed only four hits and three walks in the game while striking out two, and now has three shutouts in his MLC career. Caleb Christopher (MLS) led the offensive charge with a three-run double in game two, while Jared Lindemann (LPS) finished with three hits. Kock fires it home Denn’s Hot Start Leads the Way Sophomore shortstop Brittany Denn (New Ulm MN) continued her hot start to the season with a big day at Minnesota Morris on Tuesday, April 9, to help the Knights to a doubleheader split. Denn finished the two games at UMM with nine hits in 11 at bats to bump her season batting average to a UMAC-best .563. In six UMAC games this season, Denn is hitting a scorching .833 to lead the conference. Denn’s 14 doubles this season are only two shy of the MLC single-season record of 16 doubles, set by Sarah Free (’12) during the 2011 season. Her .563 batting average is also on pace to shatter the MLC single-season record of .511, set by Kelly Gawrisch (’01) during the 1999 season. Denn checks the signs Men’s Tennis Sweeps UMM The men’s tennis team swept a pair of matches against Minnesota Morris to improve to 5-7 overall and 2-2 in UMAC play this season.

As Coach Jahr prepares for her 16th season, she is excited for the upcoming season and really likes her incoming freshmen. The season opened in high fashion with a road victory over Pillsbury College of Owatonna, winning by scores of 25-22, 26-24, and 25-10. Ashley Lau had a productive night with six kills and helped power her team to a convincing third game after two close games. “We attacked hard and did a good job at the net” said Coach Helen Jahr. Riverland Community College won its second straight match with a sweep of Gogebic College as they rolled to wins of 25-13, 25-8, and 25-21.

Lau led with a team high nine kills. RVLD hosted Western Technical College and Gogebic over the weekend and with some strong serving they improved to 4-0 as they defeated both opponents in 3 games.

    Gair Allie, “Year-Long Cup of Coffee” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com It was the final game of a long 1954 season for the Pitts- Pittsburgh Pirates at Brooklyn Dodgers burgh Pirates and their rookie shortstop Gair Allie. The Cor- September 26, 1954 sairs enter their Sunday afternoon game with the Brooklyn Ebbetts Field, Brooklyn, N.Y. Dodgers a full 43 games behind the National League champion New York Giants. Mired in a 2-for-25 slump with only one extra base hit in his pre- vious nine games, Allie begins the season finale against Dodg- ers’ rookie sensation Karl Spooner with a .201 batting average. Allie is hitless in four at bats against Spooner when he flies out to left fielder Sandy Amoros in the eighth inning in what turns out to be his final at bat as a major leaguer. The F7 drops his batting average for the season and his career to .199 (.19856 to be exact). A hit in any one of his four at bats that afternoon would have enabled Allie to finish above the .200 mark. The Statesville, North Carolina, native opens the season in a slump and pretty much stays there the entire summer. Allie fin- ishes April with only eight hits in 49 at bats for a .163 average. On May 4, Allie is hitting only .161, and has committed five errors at shortstop when he is benched in favor of 28-year- old WWII veteran Dick Cole. Allie returns to the starting line two weeks later and promptly goes 5-for-12 lifting his average to an even .200.
