Bend North Little League played their first game of the Junior League Baseball World Series West Regionals at Caldera High School Friday morning. Bend North is in District 5, which is hosting the regionals.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t the start the boys from Bend wanted. They lost their opening game to Arizona. But this is a double-elimination tournament, so Bend North is still alive heading into the weekend.
“We pretty much ran into a buzzsaw with them,” said Bend North manager Brad Geisking. “We’re not out of the tournament yet. We still have another game tomorrow (Saturday) morning at 9.”
