Cards baseball returns to postseason

This time a year ago the Medical Lake Cardinals were in the driver’s seat in the 1A baseball playoffs.

Now they’re in the backseat, hoping to work hard enough to grab the wheel and plant their feet on the gas pedal.

With a split in a Saturday doubleheader with Riverside, winning 4-1 and losing 12-9, the Cards finished third in the final Northeast A League standings (10-8 NEA, 12-8 overall) following a 10-0 bashing of Chewelah last Tuesday. Combined, winning two of three games sent ML into the Bi-District playoffs that began this past Tuesday with a game against Brewster in Moses Lake.
