Game Pictures

On Sunday, Evansville made the short trip to Orfordville for a Home Talent Baseball League game. Evansville's team had a few new faces on the bench this week as some of the college kids returned home for the summer.

One of those players was Tim Legler, a pitcher on UW-Platteville's team and a former Orfordville Home Talent player from last year. Tim came in to relieve starter Nic Larson, who scattered 3 hits while striking out 5 in six innings pitched. Larson also was Evansville's first batter in the modern era to finish with multiple hits in a game. He finished 2 for 2.

Evansville scored their only run in the top of the 9th inning. Legler walked and advanced to second on a fielder's choice. Garrett Lindemann drove in Legler with a solid base hit. Once again, the team has improved over last week's performance, but still working hard to get in the win column.

This week the Evansville Home Talent Team would like to recognize their Gold sponsors: State Farm Insurance of Evansville and Brodhead, Evansville Oil Pros, Bank of Evansville, VFW Post 6905, and Evansville Pharmacy. Next week the Silver sponsors will be listed. A complete list of sponsors is listed on the team's website at www.evansville.hometalent.org.

Evansville's next two games are on the road. The Thursday Night League starts this week when Evansville will travel to Ridgeway on May 19 starting at 7:30 pm. The next league game is Sunday, May 22 at Lake Mills starting at 1:00 pm. For the latest schedule and results please visit the team's website.
