(NewsDakota.com) The road to Jack Brown Stadium in Jamestown for the State Class B Baseball tournament will start for two of the seven teams in Region I on Friday, while the other five wait through the weekend to start their own runs at a regional title.

With the addition of a seventh team this season, there will be a play-in game on Friday. Hankinson-Fairmont, the newest team in the region and #7 seed, will travel to Enderlin to take on the #6 seeded Falcons of Enderlin/Maple Valley with first pitch scheduled for 5 p.m. at Hendrickson Field.

On Monday, the winner of the play-in game will head up to Hope to play the #3 seeded Squirrels of Central Cass at 3:30. The team left standing will face the #2 seeded Spartans of Finley-Sharon/Hope-Page 20 minutes after the first game concluded.

During the same day in Kindred also at 3:30, the #4 Northern Cass Jaguars and the #5 LaMoure-Litchville/Marion Loboes will battle, with the winner facing off later in the evening against #1 and defending Regional and State Champion Kindred/Richland.

Q101.1 FM will have coverage of Friday’s play-in game starting at 4:45 and Monday’s LLM/Northern Cass matchup starting at 3:15. Should EMV win Friday, Monday’s game against Central Cass will be on 103.1 The Raven.
