Games of the Week (May 9-14)

As a reminder, this is the final week of the baseball regular season. The cutoff to qualify for the district playoffs is Saturday. The Mid-Penn Tournament is set to begin May 16 at Northern.



Milton Hershey at Camp Hill, Monday, 4 -- Might be the last shot for the Lions to crack the 10-team District 3 Class A field. That loss to Steel-High on Friday put Camp Hill in a hole.


Red Land at Mechanicsburg, Monday, 4 -- It's been two years since these two met on the baseball field. We're guessing that they still don't like each other very much. This should be a good non-division tussle between teams that fell just short of winning their respective divisions.


West Perry vs. Susquenita at Newport, Monday, 7 -- It's the third meeting between these rivals this year. West Perry won the first game in 11 innings; Susquenita responded with a 12-1, five-inning rout the second time around. This time the winner will be Perry County champions.


Trinity at Susquenita, Tuesday, 4 -- Shamrocks can move one stop closer to a Capital Division title with a win over the revived Blackhawks. It's do or doe for 'Nita: a loss here and hopes of a division title are dashed.


Central Dauphin East at Cumberland Valley, Tuesday, 4:15 -- It's rather simple for the upstart Eagles: a win and they're the outright Commonwealth champions. A loss and they fall into a three-way tie with Chambersburg and Red Land.


Trinity at Boiling Springs, Thursday, 4:15 -- Bubblers could play spoiler and keep the Shamrocks from Capital Division gold. We're not sure how Trinity's pitching will be by this point but if Colin King (above) or Dan Resavy can start, the Shamrocks will be tough to beat.
