By this time seven North Saskatchewan River Baseball League games should have been played, but that hasn't been the case due to the recent soaking by Mother Nature.
The two games that were played both occurred in Lloydminster and both were one-run games.
May 17, the Lloydminster Junior Redhawks edged the Midwest Expos 3-2. Evan Latos pitched six innings for the Redhawks earning the win while Steven Latos earned the save.
The Expos scratched out just two hits against the Redhawks,
The Redhawks managed seven hits off of Nathan Mullet including a home run by Jason Fechter.
The other game played in the opening week saw the defending champion Lloydminster Meridian Twins fall 8-7 to the Border City Blue Jays Monday.
Colbey Field pitched 5.1 innings picking up the win and Clayton Ermel earned the save. Warren Stang and Matt Loree each pitched three innings for the Twins, as Stang was saddled with the loss.
Wednesday, four games were rained out and will be rescheduled including the North Battleford Beavers and Wilkie Brewers' game. Also Thursday evening one game was postponed.
