Town Ball Tour Draws Large Crowd to Faribault
There were no parking spaces to be found anywhere on the grounds of North Alexander Park in Faribault Wednesday night. Opening night of the Rice County Fair brought scores of people.
KMSP Channel 9 Town Ball Tour packed the stands at Bell Field. They brought some freebies for the kids. A bean bag toss activity. It seems a lot of people hope to be on television.
They made stops around town during their morning local programming bringing some publicity to a community not far from the heart of the Twin Cities.

Faribault Lakers Shoot Down Montgomery Mallards
The Faribault Lakers ran their record to 6-0 with a 6-2 win today at Memorial Field in Montgomery. The key to their impressive start has been very good pitching.
Nate Rost started his first game by going seven innings with 10 strikeouts, 1 walk, 5 hits allowed. My scorebook had him with 103 pitches, 73 strikes. When Rost left the game Faribault had a 2-0 lead. Joe Grote threw the final two innings facing 10 batters with 3 strikeouts, 0 walks, 4 hits allowed, 2 earned runs.
Notice just 1 walk for Lakers pitchers. In 52 innings pitched to start the season Faribault pitchers have walked 7 batters while fanning 74. Opponents are hitting .169. Nine different players have pitched with 7 logging 2 innings or more.
