LEGION WORLD SERIES TEAM REUNION

The 1985 New Ulm American Legion Baseball World Series team will celebrate their 40th anniversary this Saturday, June 28th at Johnson Park at noon prior to New Ulm Legion Golds game at 12:30 p.m. against Springfield, Nebraska in the Upper Midwest Classic tournament.

The Regional Tournament was hosted by New Ulm and over 1,700 fans witnessed New Ulm defeat Oconomoc, Wisconsin in 12 innings and advance to their second Legion World Series, the first coming in 1978.

BREWERS MILITARY

APPRECIATION NIGHT

Sunday is “Military Appreciation Night” at Johnson Park when the New Ulm Brewers host Sleepy Eye at 5 p.m. in a Tomahawk East League match-up.

The New Ulm Baseball Association will be giving each veteran in attendance a free hamburger, french fry and drink.

The New Ulm Area Color Guard will be there along with the Legion Riders and veteran Denny Warta is going to throw out the first pitch.

As always, there is no admission to Brewers games.

GREYHOUNDS CONSISTENTLY IMPRESSIVE

Over the last five seasons, the New Ulm Cathedral baseball team has posted a 107-26 record (a .804 winning percentage). The team has made the state tournament in three of those five years, with a third-place finish in 2023 and a second-place finish this past season. I don’t think that there are a lot of high schools in any class that can match that mark.
