Minnwest completes run in Minor League tourney

By John RittenhouseA team that struggled early in the season finished the campaign with a bang during the Luverne Community Education Minor League Baseball Tournament this week.Minnwest Bank, which sported a 1-5 record at one stage of the season, completed what ended as a six-game winning streak by posting three straight wins to take top honors in the league’s annual postseason tournament.Entering the tournament as the No. 4 seed in a six-team field, Minnwest opened the tournament by defeating Jubilee Foods last Thursday before posting a pair of big upset wins Tuesday night.Minnwest faced Tri-State Insurance, the tournament’s No. 1 seed and the regular season champion of the Minor League, in the semifinals.Minnwest controlled the game early, but Tri-State rallied to tie the game in the bottom of the fourth inning and forced an extra fifth inning.Minnwest completed its upset during the extra frame by pulling out a 27-25 win.Waiting for Minnwest in Tuesday’s championship game was second-seeded Dairy Queen.Dairy Queen faced No. 3 McDonald Optometric Clinic, which beat Hanson Silo by one run in Thursday’s opening round, in the semifinals.Trailing 13-10 heading into the bottom of the fourth inning, Dairy Queen rallied to score four runs and pull out a 14-13 victory over McDonald Optometric Clinic.The championship game seemed to belong to Minnwest, the league’s team of destiny.Minnwest outscored Dairy Queen in all four of the game’s innings on the way to title-clinching 28-21 win.

First Farmers & Merchants wins rain-shortened championship game

By John RittenhouseA rain-shortened championship game left First Farmers & Merchants Bank holding the championship trophy of the Luverne Community Education’s Major League Baseball Tournament Wednesday, July 21.First Farmers & Merchants Bank completed its two-game run through the tournament by defeating Latham Insurance 9-4 in a game that was ruled complete with Latham’s batting in the bottom half of the third inning.Like all major league games (consisting of players in the fifth and sixth grades), the championship tilt was scheduled to last six innings.The plan changed when a summer rainstorm rolled through the area, forcing a delay that led to the game being called complete before three full innings were completed.Based on play this summer, First Farmers & Merchants Bank posted a mild surprise by winning the tournament.The eventual champions, the tournament’s second seed, defeated No. 3 Hardwick State Bank in the first round of the four-team event.The win sent First Farmers & Merchants State Bank into the July 21 title tilt against No. 1 Latham Insurance, which defeated No. 4 McClure Electric-Plumbing in the first round.Prior to First Farmers & Merchants Bank’s rain-shortened win over Latham Insurance in the championship game, Hardwick State Bank defeated McClure Electric-Plumbing in the third-place game.

Ten-run victories send VFW team to Marshall

By John RittenhouseLuverne took top honors during the South Third District VFW Baseball Playoffs by posting a pair of 10-run wins at Redbird Field late last week.Luverne disposed of Slayton by the 10-run rule during Thursday’s semifinals before defeating Edgerton by the 10-run rule during Saturday’s championship game.The wins improve Luverne’s season record to 19-8 and send the Cardinals to the Third District Tournament at Legion Field in Marshall Saturday and Sunday (possibly Monday).The Cardinals will play Olivia, the second seed from the Northern Division, in a 1 p.m. game in a first-round game of the four-team, double-elimination event. A win would send the Cards to a 5 p.m. game later that day. A loss would force Luverne to play again at 3 p.m.Luverne 10, Edgerton 0The Cardinals strolled to a 10-run win over Edgerton during Saturday’s championship game at Redbird Field in Luverne.Luverne pitcher Andrew DeBoer threw a one-hit shutout and teammates Marc Boelman and Chris Fitzer drove in three runs each to lead the Cardinals to the tournament title.DeBoer, one of three Cardinals to slap two hits in the game, threw five innings of two-walk, two-strikeout ball to notch a complete-game win.Edgerton, the team that eventually placed second to advance to the district event, never put together a serious scoring threat against Luverne’s pitcher.The Cardinals supported DeBoer by scoring runs in four of the game’s five innings.Luverne loaded the bases in the first with Jake Clark slapping a single, Boelman reaching base on a fielder’s choice and Tyler Reisch being hit by a pitch. Back-to-back singles by Fitzer and Ben Nath plated Clark and Boelman respectively, giving the Cards a 2-0 lead.The Cards increased their lead to 5-0 by scoring three runs in the second.Derek Elbers singled before Clark and Brett Lundgren drew walks to load the sacks. Boelman then doubled over the left fielder’s head to score all three runners on base.DeBoer helped his own cause in the third inning by slapping a single before Elbers drew a walk. Clark then delivered an RBI single before Lundgren chased home a run with a groundout to make it a 7-0 difference.Luverne scored three runs in the fifth to end the game by the 10-run rule.Craig Oeding reached base on an error before scoring the first run on a groundout by Clark.Elbers, who walked before Clark’s groundout, and Clark scored on Fitzer’s two-run single to end the game.Box score AB R H BIClark 3 2 2 2Lundgren 1 2 0 1Boelman 3 1 1 3Reisch 3 1 0 0Fitzer 3 0 2 3Nath 3 0 1 1DeBoer 3 1 2 0Elbers 2 2 1 0Oeding 3 1 0 0Luverne 13, Slayton 3The Cardinals advanced to the tournament’s championship game by disposing of Slayton by 10 runs during a five-inning game played at Redbird Field Thursday.Luverne fell behind 3-0 in the game’s first inning, but the Cardinals bounced back to score 13 unanswered runs and win the game by the 10-run rule.Craig Oeding led the charge by driving in four runs with two hits. Brett Lundgren, who pitched a complete game, and Derek Elbers added three RBIs each to the winning cause.Slayton protected its early lead through two and one-half innings before Luverne exploded for seven runs in the bottom of the third.Lundgren drew a walk and Tyler Reisch reached base on an error before Ben Nath opened the scoring in the third with a two-run double.Andrew DeBoer singled home Nath to tie the game at three. A two-run triple by Oeding, which was followed by a two-run single from Lundgren, capped the seven-run inning.Luverne went on to score three runs in the fourth and fifth innings to put the game away.The Cards loaded the bases in the fourth with Chris Fitzer drawing a walk, Nath being hit by a pitch and DeBoer slapping a single.Elbers chased home the first two runs with a single, and Lundgren added a sacrifice fly to make it a 10-3 game.Reisch reached base on an error, Nath walked and DeBoer was hit by a pitch to load the sacks in the fifth. Elbers delivered a sacrifice fly to plate the first run of the frame, and Oeding’s two-run single ended the contest.Lundgren limited Slayton to four hits without issuing a walk during a five-inning stint on the hill. Lundgren fanned five batters.Box score AB R H BIClark 2 1 0 0Lundgren 1 1 1 3Boelman 4 0 0 0Reisch 3 2 0 0Fitzer 1 1 0 0Nath 2 3 1 2DeBoer 3 3 2 1Elbers 3 1 2 3Oeding 4 1 2 4

Remember when?

10 years ago (1994)"Health care reform is already happening in Luverne and Adrian. The most visible signs are several joint ventures between the Adrian and Luverne hospitals."During the past year or year and a half, we've had a lot of stimulus," said Luverne Community Hospital Administrator Gerald Carl. Whether it's the uneasiness of seeing several rural hospitals fold, pending national legislation or changes at the state level, area health-care providers are responding.The joint ventures between Adrian and Luverne started when the two communities received a rural health-care transition grant that provided $50,000 a year for three years beginning in September 1991."25 years ago (1979)"It was like a bad rerun.Saturday about 11 p.m. another dose of severe summer weather hit the area. Generally the recent attack brought heavy rains and high winds, but there was considerable damage from hail.… Lawrence Thode, who farms in the southeast corner of Springwater Township, considers his crop a total loss."50 years ago (1954)"Two races of local interest developed this week as J.F. Gilfoy, Lismore, filed for state senator, and Mort B. Skewes filed again for county attorney. … Thus, there will be no primary in September for any of the local officials, and only two contests at the general election in November." 75 years ago (1929)"By a vote of 86 to 50 the freeholders of the city of Luverne went on record as favoring the providing of textbooks free to students of the grades at the meeting of the independent school district of Luverne."100 years ago (1904)"On Thursday of last week H.Q. Snook purchased the fixtures and tables of the Snook billiard hall from his brother J.L. Snook, and will hereafter conduct the business, giving it his personal attention."

From the library

My mother refuses to let me accompany her to the doctor. She always tries to find someone else in the family to take her to her appointments. I think she’s under the impression that I harbor hostilities toward the medical community. That isn’t exactly true. It all started about six years ago, when my mother had her first of three hip replacement surgeries. One day during the recovery period, I noticed something was wrong. I buzzed a nurse. When I didn’t receive the medical response as quickly as I wanted, I entered the hallway outside her room and yelled: "Something is wrong with my mother!" I happen to be very protective of my mother and if I don’t like the way things are going, I get disturbed. I don’t think this makes me a bad person. Over the past couple of years, I’ve worked myself back into her good graces (I think). I’ve made it through two doctor visits with her and I’ve behaved. Still, before every appointment, she makes me repeat three times, "I will be nice and I will keep my mouth shut." Now the true test looms on the horizon, a knee replacement surgery. I’m practicing deep breathing. I’ve selected my mantra. I’m praying in advance for a calm and peaceful spirit. My heart will be filled with harmony, love, and understanding. "Love is all you need." A good book can help keep fears and hostilities at bay. Just escape into someone else’s life story and forget about your mother. It’s very therapeutic. I might be reading the new book by Karen Robards, "Bait." A business trip takes attorney Maddie Fitzgerald to New Orleans. But it’s hardly business as usual when a man breaks into her hotel room and tries to kill her. Barely escaping with her life, the stylish 32-year-old brunette calls the police and meets with FBI agent Sam McCabe. Unnerved by his questions — and his good looks, Maddie is told she's been targeted by a hired killer, one who has eluded McCabe for years. Apparently, she's been mistaken for another woman, an FBI informant of the same name who was also staying at the hotel. McCabe grills her, and then disappears. Shaken, Maddie finishes her business and returns home to St. Louis. Days later, she is attacked a second time, and again McCabe returns to question her. He convinces her that the only way she'll ever be safe again is if the killer is caught, and the quickest way to nab him is to use her as bait. Maddie reluctantly agrees. Sparks fly and then ignite as McCabe shadows her. But their unexpected romance throws McCabe off his stride — and puts Maddie in the hands of a killer. Also new on the fiction shelf this week is "Skinny Dip," by Carl Hiaason. Chaz Perrone might be the only marine scientist in the world who doesn’t know which way the Gulf Stream runs. He might also be the only one who studied biology just to make a killing, and now he’s found a way; doctoring water samples so that a ruthless agribusiness tycoon can continue illegally dumping fertilizer into the endangered Everglades. When Chaz suspects that his wife, Joey, has figured out his scam, he pushes her overboard from a cruise liner into the night-dark Atlantic. Unfortunately for Chaz, his wife doesn’t die in the fall. Joey Perrone is plucked from the ocean by former cop, Mick Stranahan. Instead of rushing to the police and reporting her husband’s crime, Joey decides to stay dead and (with Mick’s help) get even with Chaz. As Joey haunts and taunts her homicidal husband, as Chaz’s cold-blooded cohorts in pollution grow uneasy about his ineptitude, as Mick Stranahan discovers that six failed marriages and years of island solitude haven’t killed the reckless romantic in him, we’re taken on a hilarious, full-throttle, ride through the warped politics and mayhem of the human environment, and the human heart.
