Tom Whippler (25) celebrates with teammates after hitting the first of three home runs on the day — this one a game-winning two-run shot in the first game — during a 7–6 11-inning win over Concordia-Moorhead in the final elimination round game of the MIAC baseball tournament on May 15, 2010 in Dundas, Minn. St. Thomas advanced to face Augsburg in the championship round. The Auggies won a 3–2 game the previous day, but St. Thomas crushed the Auggies 17–1.
The Augsburg College baseball team lines up to congratulate left fielder Jeff Butler (FY, Prior Lake, Minn.) on his first collegiate home run during a 17–1 loss to the No. 5 St. Thomas Tommies in MIAC Baseball Playoff action in Dundas, Minn. The fourth-seeded Auggies will face the top-seeded Tommies in the seventh and final game of the double-elimination tournament.
Here’s one from yesterday’s Twins game.
Fans celebrate a Michael Cuddyer solo home run in the bottom of the sixth inning of Minnesota’s 6–0 win over the Cleveland Indians at Target Field in Minneapolis, Minn. on April 21, 2010.
Had a great time at Target Field. It’s an absolutely great stadium.
Here are four images from my edit of my “top” five images for the June 23 Saints game. Enjoy. You have seen two of them so far and will get another one tomorrow for the Fourth of July.
Pregame:

One from the game:
The Souix Falls Canaries right fielder slides to make a catch during a game against the Saint Paul Saints on June 23, 2009. The Saints won the game 12–3.
But wait, there’s more, here are two more images you have already seen, but larger and ready for the web.
Jacob Butler celebrating:
St. Paul Saints outfielder Jacob Butler celebrates with first-base coach Charlie Ruud after Butler hit his second of two home runs of the inning as part of an 11-run bottom-of-the-sixth for the Saints. The Saints beat the Sioux Falls Canaries 12–3, in part due to Butlers 5 RBI, on June 23 at Midway Stadium in Saint Paul. In celebration of Minnesota?s history in the Negro Leagues, both teams donned uniforms of past Negro League teams. The Saints wore the uniform of the Homestead (Penn.) Grays while the Canaries donned the uniform of the Newark (N.J.) Eagles.
Mike Wylie pitching (recrop):
St. Paul Saints pitcher Mitch Wylie throws a fastball during a game againts the Souix Falls Canaries on June 23, 2009. Wylie pitched six innings, giving up just three runs, all in the first two innings, while striking out six batters. Wylie improved his record to 5–2 with the win.

The following shot is from an amateur baseball game I shot tonight.
Canon 30D + Sigma 70–200 f/2.8; ISO 500; 1/800 @ 2.8; f=200mm.
That’s all for now. This is relatively new pitcher for the Dundas Dukes by the name of Aaron Troyansky. Troyansky played for Carleton College as a junior last season and is from Lubbock, Texas.
Thanks for looking.
